Your Brain & The Local Peace Economy
Laurel Mellin is a health psychologist and founder of Emotional Brain Training. This brain-based practice strengthens resilience and liberates us to think expansively, creating more peace, love, and joy. EBT further validates the local peace economy based on neuroscience and provides a personal practice consistent with indigenous practices to prevent hopelessness, depression, and addiction.
As the military-industrial complex encodes itself in our unconscious mind without our awareness, EBT can provide another way to ground ourselves and rewire our thinking in favor of the local peace economy. The techniques enhance our effectiveness day by day in navigating grief more easily, as well as in caring more deeply.
Her organization, EBT.org, equips people with the community support to develop a personal practice in resilience, optimal health and activism. The event will include a conversation about the power of the emotional brain to support the local peace economy work and introduce actionable skills to begin developing an EBT practice.
