  SPEAKER_00: Brain thinking, improving information processing and the crisis of self.
• 0:08
  SPEAKER_00: Human system science.
• 0:10
  SPEAKER_00: Brain thinking goes deeper than asking how the brain processes information.
• 0:14
  SPEAKER_00: It asks how people come to understand themselves through the continual influence of brain, body, environment, memory, emotion, thought, reflection, and lived experience on sense and receive path functions.
• 0:29
  SPEAKER_00: New Age brain thinking, where human systems science, brain thinking, resonates with lived experience.
• 0:36
  SPEAKER_00: New age brain thinking begins with the practice of learning the brain's body.
• 0:41
  SPEAKER_00: The physical self takes form through body action and behavior, while the neurophysics of self takes form through brain talk and brain thinking.
• 0:50
  SPEAKER_00: Between them, sensory organization carries information through stages of awareness, thought, and reflection.
• 0:57
  SPEAKER_00: The unfinished thought opens into lived experience, where human systems science studies how the brain's body senses, receives, expresses, and reflects information.
• 1:08
  SPEAKER_00: From that lived experience, human system science brain thinking asks a personal question.
• 1:14
  SPEAKER_00: What happens when the brain talks back through the crisis of self?
• 1:19
  SPEAKER_00: That question grows out of more than 30 years of brain talkbooks practice working with parents and children in crisis.
• 1:26
  SPEAKER_00: The work is also grounded in my family's experience.
• 1:29
  SPEAKER_00: My wife endured serious childhood trauma, and my son was suspected of having been exposed to drugs while in utero.
• 1:36
  SPEAKER_00: Those professional and family experiences raised a central research question.
• 1:41
  SPEAKER_00: How do children hurt by major life events sense and receive the information shaping their crisis?
• 1:48
  SPEAKER_00: Sense and Receive Path Research began by studying how children hurt by major life events sense information and receive it into their crisis experience.
• 1:57
  SPEAKER_00: From that foundation, the study of brain, body, and sense events identified signs that energy, action, and feelings simulate the flow of blood, oxygen, and emotion.
• 2:09
  SPEAKER_00: The research then followed how a child upset by major life events intercontacts, interacts, cooperates, and participates across home, school, neighborhood, and workplace networks.
• 2:21
  SPEAKER_00: These observable patterns became known as performance indicators.
• 2:26
  SPEAKER_00: Together, these performance indicators revealed how internal brain, body, and sense events take form through a child's interactions across human networks.
• 2:35
  SPEAKER_00: This progression became the foundation for human systems science brain thinking and its study of how the brain talks back through the crisis of self.
• 2:44
  SPEAKER_00: The voices, the self-talk, and the brain talk were variations displayed during psychotic episodes in my son's fight with schizophrenia.
• 2:53
  SPEAKER_00: Human system science invites parents, educators, caregivers, and helping professionals to look beyond diagnosis, symptoms, and behavior and ask a more revealing question.
• 3:04
  SPEAKER_00: What is a child in crisis sensing, receiving, processing, and communicating?
• 3:09
  SPEAKER_00: By studying brain, body, and sense events, self-talk, and performance across home, school, neighborhood, and workplace networks, this approach offers a way to recognize the child's communication before deciding how to respond.
• 3:23
  SPEAKER_00: Begin with human systems science, brain thinking.
• 3:27
  SPEAKER_00: Inside, clear exercises guide you in studying information processing, the crisis of self, and brain thinking.
• 3:34
  SPEAKER_00: Then, continue exploring how the brain talks back through the crisis of self.
• 3:38
