Presenter(s): Daniel Siegel, John O'Donohue
Session Length: 2hr. 00 min. Event: 2005 Networker Annual Symposium Date: March 17-20, 2005
502 Modern neuroscience is only beginning to catch up with the understanding of poets and mystics, who've long known of the mind's ability to experience multiple levels of reality and an expanded comprehension of the world. In this dialogue between a neuropsychiatrist and a poet, we'll explore what modern concepts about neural integration, complexity theory, mindsight, and the neurological function of narrative can tell us about deepening our own creativity. You'll experience directly the power of metaphor and poetry to alter consciousness and literally change your brain. You'll come away with a fuller grasp of how to kindle the creative imagination and enhance clients' capacity for fully embracing life.
