Improving Your Life by Healing Your Brain
Anxiety, Depression, Poor Attention, Anger – these are all symptoms of a badly working brain.
In my ongoing research of healing the brain, I came across Dr. Daniel Amen’s work. Dr. Amen is a psychiatrist who started using a brain SPECT scan to determine the correlation between behaviour and areas of the brain.
The SPECT scan documents the circulation and metabolism in the brain. Unlike other brain imaging (CAT scan and MRI), which produces a snapshot picture at one moment in time, the SPECT scan shows movement and activity. From the SPECT scan, Dr, Amen could see high, low or normal activity in five distinct areas of the brain. He would then prescribe medicines as needed to increase activity to low areas and decrease activity to high areas.
He was then able to see the before and after in the brain as well as observe the change in behaviour. From these observations, Dr. Amen could determine which areas of the brain were responsible for behaviours and emotions that were in need of modification.
I learned so much from his research. Now that I know which emotional symptoms are linked to which specific areas of the brain, I am now able to check different areas of the brain intuitively instead of sending patients for a SPECT scan. Knowing the symptoms, I can scan each area and let the energy I sense tell me whether the brain is working properly. If it is not, I know what remedies to use to heal physical dysfunction in that area of the brain.
In his book “Change your Brain, Change your Life” one area he describes is the deep limbic system. So, for example, overactivity in this area can cause monthly mood swings known as PMS due to low estrogen occurring at that time. These emotions can also occur as post partum depression or menopause. In these cases, I would intuitively determine a remedy that addresses the overactivity of the deep limbic system to treat the cause.
Dr. Amen has determined 7 types of ADD and estimates that 50% of the whole population has learning challenges. That information is helping my work with people of all ages and brain capacity.
I have worked on children’s learning issues for years. That work has given me concrete evidence that the brain can be healed and improved. Not just children, but everyone’s brain.
Case Study:
In a recent case, a mother emailed me feedback about her 6 year old son, 2 months after his first set of remedies. ” He is more positive, confident and without anxiety. He tells me he feels happy (he had never said that before!). In 2 months since the remedies, he went from having no interest in sports to taking first place in a gymnastics competition! ”
His focus is better already, but the second set of remedies is now working on enhancing his learning skills.
Thanks to my research into Dr. Amen and his books, I can now determine specific areas of the brain based on symptoms.
Feel free to email me symptoms or concerns you have. I can then give you feedback regarding what could be done with remedies to heal your brain and improve your life!
