The Brain, The Mind and Choice
How The Brain Element of the COPOE Project will help Creating Our Paradise On Earth

What is the brain? We will begin with a general introduction to the main components of the brain and what these parts are responsible for. We will learn about neurons, neurotransmitters, the nervous system and differences between the right and left hemispheres. We will learn what part of brain function can be controlled such as thoughts and emotions. We will learn where our emotions are generated in the brain and how are they linked to the release of hormones. How do these hormones affect our function, level of health and our experience of life?

We will differentiate between the Brain and the Mind and how they influence each other. Since chemicals are released with the experience of thoughts and emotions and they occur in the Mind then the Mind can affect the quality of the whole brain and body health. We will explore how the mind is connected to consciousness and how consciousness is linked to choice - making us unique among species. Humans get to CHOOSE thoughts = behaviour. We will explore how we can do this, how we can train our mind to choose behaviour that is in alignment with our personal and collective paradise.

If you could choose your paradise what would it feel like? People have affected significant change in humanity and we will see examples of their impact in this webinar. How do you feel after viewing these events and what are the differences? How do you want to affect change in your own life based on what you experienced? Imagine having more sense of purpose in your life, more health, more happiness, more energy, more creativity.....What is one thing (behaviour, attitude, feeling) you want to change in your life right now? We will explore concrete strategies using your mind to change your mind.

We get to choose……. to have a healthy mind, body, environment and society.
