  SPEAKER_00: Slayton, Ed D., founder of Human Systems Science and creator of Brain Talk Books.
• 0:11
  SPEAKER_00: I call myself the Brain Talker because my work begins with a simple belief.
• 0:16
  SPEAKER_00: I write to the Brain, not the body.
• 0:20
  SPEAKER_00: This first episode opens from the perspective of Brain Talk Books.
• 0:24
  SPEAKER_00: Two new Brain Talk Books are now moving through production toward publication, and Brain Talk is part of the larger book sales format I am developing through audio and video sessions.
• 0:35
  SPEAKER_00: This is Brain Talk, presented as a Brain Talk Books session.
• 0:39
  SPEAKER_00: Each episode will help listeners understand the language system behind the books, the workshop activities, and the practical use of human systems science in everyday life.
• 0:51
  SPEAKER_00: Episode Purpose.
• 0:53
  SPEAKER_00: Today's session is an orientation to the signature Brain Talk Book sessions.
• 0:58
  SPEAKER_00: I will introduce the language of human system science and show how each topic connects to behavior, learning, self-reflection, crisis response, and the reader's personal sense of feel.
• 1:10
  SPEAKER_00: As you listen, I invite you to hear behavior differently.
• 1:14
  SPEAKER_00: In this framework, behavior is not just attitude.
• 1:18
  SPEAKER_00: Behavior is brain-body sense messaging.
• 1:21
  SPEAKER_00: It is information moving through the person, the body, the environment, and the relationship system.
• 1:26
  SPEAKER_00: For each topic, I will explain what it means, why it matters, and how it connects to the brain talkbook system.
• 1:34
  SPEAKER_00: This gives listeners a clear path from podcast learning to book reading, video viewing, and workshop practice.
• 1:42
  SPEAKER_00: 1.
• 1:42
  SPEAKER_00: Response as brain body sense messaging.
• 1:45
  SPEAKER_00: 2.
• 1:46
  SPEAKER_00: Brain talk.
• 1:47
  SPEAKER_00: How the person receives, processes, and responds to neural energy action feelings.
• 1:54
  SPEAKER_00: 3.
• 1:54
  SPEAKER_00: Sense of feel.
• 1:56
  SPEAKER_00: How the brain takes the lead of the body.
• 1:58
  SPEAKER_00: 4.
• 1:59
  SPEAKER_00: Brain thinking.
• 2:00
  SPEAKER_00: How information has been received, organized, and expressed.
• 2:04
  SPEAKER_00: 5.
• 2:05
  SPEAKER_00: Sense and receive path performance.
• 2:07
  SPEAKER_00: How contact, interaction, cooperation, and participation move through physical and neurotransformative stages.
• 2:14
  SPEAKER_00: 6.
• 2:15
  SPEAKER_00: Sense of self, physics, and sense of feel for self through neurophysics.
• 2:20
  SPEAKER_00: 7.
• 2:20
  SPEAKER_00: Crisis of self.
• 2:22
  SPEAKER_00: How states of mind affect self-reflection.
• 2:25
  SPEAKER_00: Topic 1.
• 2:26
  SPEAKER_00: Response as brain-body sense messaging.
• 2:30
  SPEAKER_00: When I use the word response, I am not only talking about what a person does on the outside.
• 2:36
  SPEAKER_00: I am talking about what the brain and body are trying to communicate through action, feeling, movement, resistance, shutdown, excitement, or confusion.
• 2:47
  SPEAKER_00: Response is information.
• 2:49
  SPEAKER_00: Response is the brain-body sense system speaking before the person may have words for what is happening.
• 2:57
  SPEAKER_00: Topic 2.
• 2:58
  SPEAKER_00: Brain talk.
• 3:00
  SPEAKER_00: Brain talk is the language of how a person receives, processes, and responds to neural energy action feelings.
• 3:08
  SPEAKER_00: It helps us stop judging the body too quickly and begin listening to what the brain may be organizing through behavior.
• 3:15
  SPEAKER_00: In brain talk books, this becomes a way to teach, coach, parent, counsel, and lead with more accuracy.
• 3:24
  SPEAKER_00: Topic 3.
• 3:26
  SPEAKER_00: Sense of feel.
• 3:28
  SPEAKER_00: Sense of feel is the inner signal system that tells the brain how the body is experiencing the moment.
• 3:34
  SPEAKER_00: It is not only emotion, it is not only thought.
• 3:37
  SPEAKER_00: It is the felt information that helps the brain decide what is safe, what is difficult, what is familiar, and what needs attention.
• 3:47
  SPEAKER_00: In human systems science, sense of feel helps explain why the brain often takes the lead before the person can explain the behavior.
• 3:55
  SPEAKER_00: Topic 4.
• 3:56
  SPEAKER_00: Brain thinking.
• 3:58
  SPEAKER_00: Brain thinking describes how information is received, organized, and expressed.
• 4:04
  SPEAKER_00: A person's words, actions, silence, posture, choices, or reactions may all show how information is being handled by the system.
• 4:13
  SPEAKER_00: This is important because when we understand brain thinking, we can support learning and change without forcing the person into shame, blame, or confusion.
• 4:24
  SPEAKER_00: Topic 5.
• 4:26
  SPEAKER_00: Sense and receive path performance.
• 4:29
  SPEAKER_00: The sense and receive path helps us look at how contact, interaction, cooperation, participation, and performance move through physical and neural stages.
• 4:39
  SPEAKER_00: A person may be present but not yet connected.
• 4:43
  SPEAKER_00: A person may hear words but not yet receive meaning.
• 4:46
  SPEAKER_00: A person may be willing but not yet able to cooperate.
• 4:50
  SPEAKER_00: This path gives us language for the stages between contact and performance.
• 4:55
  SPEAKER_00: Topic 6.
• 4:57
  SPEAKER_00: Sense of self.
• 4:58
  SPEAKER_00: Sense of self is where the person begins to recognize how the self is being experienced through the body, the brain, the environment, and the relationship system.
• 5:08
  SPEAKER_00: This is where physics and neurophysics meet the felt experience of being human.
• 5:13
  SPEAKER_00: The goal is not to label the person, the goal is to help the person recognize what the brain-body sense system is carrying.
• 5:22
  SPEAKER_00: Topic 7 Crisis of Self.
• 5:25
  SPEAKER_00: Crisis of self happens when states of mind affect self-reflection.
• 5:30
  SPEAKER_00: In crisis, the person may not be able to see the self clearly, speak the self clearly, or organize the self safely.
• 5:39
  SPEAKER_00: Brain Talk Books gives us a way to understand crisis without reducing the person to the crisis.
• 5:46
  SPEAKER_00: We look for the message inside the response, and we help the brain find a path back toward sense, safety, and participation.
• 5:55
  SPEAKER_00: Book and session invitation.
• 5:58
  SPEAKER_00: These seven topics are more than podcast talking points.
• 6:02
  SPEAKER_00: They are the foundation of the Brain Talk Book sales and learning format.
• 6:07
  SPEAKER_00: The books introduce the language.
• 6:09
  SPEAKER_00: The podcast explains the language.
• 6:12
  SPEAKER_00: The video sessions demonstrate the language.
• 6:15
  SPEAKER_00: The workshop activities feature brain games that help readers practice the language in real life.
• 6:20
  SPEAKER_00: As the new Brain Talk Books move toward publication, this podcast and video series will give you the language, examples, and session format behind the books.
• 6:31
  SPEAKER_00: Follow the series, watch the video sessions, and prepare to use the workshop activities and brain games as part of your own sense and receive practice.
• 6:40
  SPEAKER_00: If you are a parent, educator, counselor, coach, leader, or person trying to understand your own response system, Brain Talk Books are here to help you slow down, listen differently, and read behavior as information.
• 6:55
  SPEAKER_00: Closing.
• 6:56
  SPEAKER_00: Thank you for joining me for this first Brain Talk session from the perspective of Brain Talk Books.
• 7:02
  SPEAKER_00: In the next sessions, we will take each of these seven topics deeper, turning them into best practices, sense and receive path performance, body reading, and brain talk interpretation.
