About the course
Connection is our greatest need, and disconnection is our greatest fear. This training explores this statement all the way down to a cellular level looking at the power of relationships to shape our brains, bodies, and behavior. It also celebrates the ability of the brain to continue to heal and grow over the lifespan and explores ways to explain and promote that healing and growth.
Objective 1 - The centrality of relationships in human growth and development, how the quality of relationships affects brain development and the healing power of empathic connection.
Objective 2 - The impact of trauma on brain development, attachment, and developmental milestones
