Brain and Behaviour Education - We have developed a model of the root causes of behaviour. The model focus on understanding the ethological, neurobiological and psychological basis of behaviour. The model is derived from the work, primarily, from Drs Irenäus Eibl-Eibesfeldt, Peter Levine, Pat Ogden, Janina Fisher and Bessel Van Der Kolk . Recently, both Dr John Arden and Professor Peter Kindermann have synthesized much of this work into a psychosocial model of mental health that integrate biological, social and cultural impacts upon the psychological processes that underlie mental health. In particular, Dr Arden is an advocate of the use of learning about the brain and its role in the manifestation of behaviour. Introducing new learning, which brings about changes in the brain, results in concomitant changes in behaviour. Thus, through utilizing the brain’s inherent ability (“neuroplasticity” ) to form new neural connections new behaviours arise. Using the aforementioned models, we provide information, learning opportunities and implementation strategies and tactics in a practical and user-friendly manner to assist in facilitating behaviour change and personal growth.
