Are you struggling at work, in your relationships, not able to maintain the healthy habits you're trying to develop? Take heart, it's not you; it's your wiring. And YOU can change it with Emotional Brain Training (EBT).
Research has shown people using this method tend to experience lasting improvements in depression, relationships, blood pressure, weight, and addictions.
You will learn powerful tools to rewire the way your brain processes stress. EBT is endorsed by top neuroscientist, Michael Merzenich, Brain Fitness developer. "Consider it (EBT) a gift from science to you."
As an EBT provider, I can help you get to the root of most issues...how your brain processes stress. Along with frying stress circuits in the brain, EBT will teach you how to strengthen your JOY circuits and begin creating more joy in your life.
