When Amy Gets Upset – Brain Science Simplified
From one of my most popular emails! When we launch into sharing information with our clients about how the brain works and what happens in our body when we get upset, our client’s eyes may glaze over, lost in the unfamiliar words we use: Amygdala, hypothalamus, Pituitary Gland, Frontal Cortex, adrenalin, epinephrine, etc. I have…

Ready, Willing and Able?
Roshane lost trust in his practitioner and stopped sessions.
