Brain in Mind

The goal of this workshop is to introduce participants to the value of diversity by first looking at the benefits of diversity in nature with specific examination of neurodiversities (e.g., Autism Spectrum Disorder, Learning Disabilities), mental illness, and sex & gender diversity.

The brain naturally forms the cognitive biases that lead to unconscious and harmful stereotypes, prejudices, and discrimination. Learn about your own cognitive biases and strategies to overcome these biases.

The Psychological Neuroscience course is an introduction to general neuroscience and psychology topics of current relevance including drugs (i.e., Neuropsychopharmacology), mental disorders, neurological disorders, sex & gender, the effects of technology & social media on the brain, and multiple intelligences.

During this course, students will learn some fundamental principles of how the mind and brain work through the lens of psychology and neuroscience. For example, students learn the neuroscience basis of cognitive biases, discrimination, and prejudices. They will also learn about the nature of diversity, the theory of intersectionality, and stress and recovery associated with traumas. Ultimately, all of the learning prepares the students’ brains to think more inclusively, appreciate diversity, and serve as agents of social change.

This course is designed to teach people about how the brain works, the nature of stress, strategies for building resilience through stress reduction, positive thinking, and optimism and general tips for brain health and wellness.

This course is available as part of our Workplace Training Courses. We’re happy to come to your workplace!

The goal of this workshop is to teach participants principles of neuroscience that they can apply directly in their own lives at work and at home in order to be more happy, healthy, and accomplished.
