Most of our beneficial experiences wash through the brain like water through a sieve. Meanwhile, our stressful painful experiences sink into it like a sponge. The brain's "negativity bias" undermines the benefits of therapy for many clients. But we can beat this bias by teaching clients how to turn passing experiences like gratitude and self-worth into lasting inner strengths hardwired into their own nervous system. This recording will explore the neuroscience of lasting healing and growth, and provide many practical tools for heightening the beneficial impacts of our clinical interventions.
