We all have the capacity to change anything if we know how our brain works, we have an adequate plan of action (self-control and motivational strategies), and we set up our environment in such a way that it supports the change we want to make. Based on the neuroscience research on self-control, motivation, and procrastination, this digital book shows you how to use simple tools to activate brain circuits that lead to success in any endeavor.
When conditions like anxiety and depression are experienced chronically, they condition neural pathways and shape a person's perception of and response to life events. As these pathways are reinforced, unhealthy neural networks turn on with increasing ease leaving clients stuck in negative patterns. In this audio download, Dr. Carol Kershaw tells you how you can help create lasting change for your clients through the repatterning of neural pathways — so you can help your clients live in joy with the ability to self-motivate and accomplish life goals.
Interventions based on the latest brain science discoveries are more effective in helping clients create lasting change. Based on their new book, Brain Change Therapy: Clinical Interventions for Self Transformation, this audio download features Drs. Carol Kershaw and Bill Wade describing how to help clients move from stuck states of mind (where they are in life) to their desired outcome (where they want to be) by changing and conditioning mental states that lead to their target goals.
