Rewire your brain to heal
NEUROPLASTICITY FOR feeling better
This teaching course with help you learn the basics about your mind and how affects everything in your life.
Your mind is incredibly powerful also when it comes to your health and wellbeing as well as everything else in your life. Learning to unlock this potential can help you let go of your chronic challenges and move towards vibrant well-being. You already know how to feel good or heal, it's just a matter of training and practice.
This course will teach you how to simply start rewiring your brain, learn to see yourself free of your challenges in life, whatever they are. In addition to reducing your challenges or symptoms, this course will help you reduce chronic stress very effectively, and improve your gut microbiome. The idea is to train your brain to think differently or focus on things that help you feel better. This builds new synaptic connections and you learn a different way of thinking which stops the circle of negative harmful thoughts and emotions that don’t help you.
By rewiring the brain, you will be able to stop the circle of negative thoughts and emotions around any issues you find challenging. When we learn to look at these issues from a different perspective, we find ways to overcome them. We can learn to see ourselves as a healthy person, for example, instead of seeing ourselves through our challenges or diagnosis. This is very important for our healing.
You will also learn more about some well known hormones and neurotransmitters and discuss how to balance them. These are:
dopamine
serotonin
oxytocin
melatonin
All these hormones affect our wellbeing, our weight, sleep, mood and mental health. We will discuss the importance of supporting your hormonal balance by optimising the function of these hormones.
Love and happiness chemistry within the body is healing and hate or fear chemistry is what makes us ill. You can change the internal environment within your body.

Neuroplasticity
Neuroplasticity or brain plasticity is a well known concept in neuroscience. It means the brain’s malleability, flexibility, the brain’s ability to reorganise the functions and structure by creating new synaptic connections in response to the brain development, and our learning or new experiences.

Who are you?
To change anything in your life, you need to become aware of your current situation, and all those subconscious habits, emotions and beliefs you have that form your current identity - which is who you think you are.

Getting out of your comfort zone
Neuroplasticity enables us to reorganise and strengthen new connections between neurons. This means building new habits and repeating them, until they become ‘the new you’.

Why is change so difficult?
We all tend to focus on our problems, and often this happens all the time. Certain thoughts and behaviours are as addictive as everything else, and it can be very difficult to change them.
