Adapting to a Changing World by Vija Rogozina

A cartoon drawing of a cave person with a round face, holding a long spear and an inventive vacuum cleaner. Adapting to a changing world, their small, muscular body dons tattered cloth while showcasing the vacuum cleaner crafted from simple objects.

We live in a paradox: change is the only constant yet human psyche resists change. Ability to adapt to new circumstances has always been a powerful driving force of human evolution. Yet human brain finds comfort in the sense of predictability, perceiving the unknown as a threat. We tend to cling to the known undesirable […]

The Authenticity Trap by: Vija Rogozina

A close-up of a vintage typewriter with a sheet of paper bearing the partially typed text "it starts with one word" evokes the essence of Vija Rogozina's latest book. The keys and paper are in focus under warm lighting, inviting reflection on how we often fall into an authenticity trap.

We are master storytellers! In fact, our brain is designed to weave stories. “We develop a sense of ourselves through repetitive internal thoughts, internally processed experiences, and a left brain that loves to fill in gaps of fact with a narrative to make sense of who we are” (New Beliefs New Brain, Lisa Wimberger). Our […]

I Am The End by: Travis Rumsey

A worn and damaged section of a military aircraft fuselage, reminiscent of Travis Rumsey's "I Am The End," is displayed in a museum. It features a recognizable black cross insignia and jagged, rusted edges, highlighting its historical significance and age.

My Mom was a Nazi.   I don’t mean that in some petulantly figurative way. She really was. At 12 years old she stood before her class to lead the morning “Heil Hitler”s in her classroom. All the kids were Nazis.  The teacher was a Nazi. They had no choice. She was born out of […]

One Size Fits All. Or Does it? By: Vija Rogozina

A group of elderly monks, embodying a "one size fits all" wisdom, sit cross-legged in traditional saffron and maroon robes. One monk, holding prayer beads, reflects the serene focus shared among them in their meditative posture.

Mindfulness had entered our collective vocabulary. During my Neurosculpting® workshops I point out that meditation literally changes our neurobiology. Less reactive amygdalae, lengthened telomeres, stronger immune system and ability to down-regulate stress response are just some benefits that has been measured. Neuroplasticity is a scientifically indisputable fact. Richard Davidson at the University of Wisconsin-Madison has […]

Lisa’s Note of the Day – The VLPFC

A chocolate cake topped with mixed berries is on a plate. A slice is cut out and placed on a triangular server inscribed with "Lisa's Note of the Day: Happiness is a piece of cake." The focus is on the elegant server and delectable cake.

Neurosculpting Note of the Day: The VLPFC(ventro lateral perfrontal cortex) is our braking system, inhibiting distracting stimulus, behavior, muscles, and emotional response. When our brain is taxed and tired, the VLPFC is the first to get exhausted, making it even harder for us to inhibit. In a recent study neuroscientists gave one group of dieters […]

Are Positive Affirmations Enough? By: Adena Shepherd

Black stencil graffiti on a textured gray surface reads "live. love. laugh." The word "love" is styled with a heart shape for the letter "o," embodying the positive affirmations often championed by Adena Shepherd.

There are many affirmations, positive talks, YouTube links and spiritual texts out there that one can use to uplift or become positive, that can assist in changing your state, for a moment or for a few days. I enjoy using these resources as fun tools in changing my perceptions of what I can have, be […]

Don’t Be Afraid To Ask Questions by: Kelley Seriano

Street art on a white brick wall by Kelley Seriano depicts a young girl in a red coat blowing bubbles, which transform into red, blue, and purple question marks. The mural subtly whispers the message: Don't Be Afraid. Ask Questions.

In the past, I would get so excited about opportunities; agree and trust blindly. This felt great for a few weeks, maybe even months, then I would find out it wasn’t a long term decision I had agreed, it was more of a short term decision. Short term feels good until you look underneath the […]

How to Take in the Good by: Rick Hanson, Ph.D.

Black and white image of a person’s open hands held out side by side, palms up, against a dark background. The sleeves of a long-sleeved garment are visible, adding texture and contrast to the scene—a visual echo of mindfulness principles espoused by Rick Hanson, Ph.D.

The Problem Over millions of years of evolution, it was more important for our ancestors to react to threats than to opportunities. Here’s why: if you live in the wild under dangerous conditions and miss out on a “carrot,” you could go get another one later – but if you fail to avoid a “stick,” […]
