Higher Brain Living Workshop A
New Brain, A New Beginning, an in-depth, experiential presentation and demonstration, will take place from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. on December 13.
The event will be held at the Courtyard Marriott Hotel, in Bloomington. The event is facilitated by Higher Brain Living, which offers workshops and training to help individuals change the physiology of their brains. This highly interactive workshop explains the science behind creating a permanent
physiological change in the brain on an ongoing basis that results in sustainable positive change in all dimensions of life. Attendees will learn about breakthroughs in neuroscience and integral theory, and discuss real-life results as well as implications and applications for accelerating results in all areas of human experience. The Higher Brain Living Technique is a revolutionary, gentle-touch technique that creates a surge of energy through the connective tissue of the body, loosening the grip of the primal, fear-based, “survival” brain and shifting the energy into the prefrontal cortex, or higher brain, where all potential lives. Often people can then let go of stress and limitations and discover a life filled with joy, passion and purpose. This workshop includes 6 CEUs for psychologists, marriage
and family therapists and addiction counselors. It is open to the public.
Cost: $99 until Nov. 30; $149 thereafter and at the door. Location: Courtyard Marriott Hotel, 7800 Bloomington Ave. S., Bloomington. For more information or reservations, visit
