Healing Trauma: Attachment, Mind, Body, and Brain
As we move into the third millennium, the field of mental health is in an exciting position to bring together diverse ideas from a range of disciplines that illuminate our understanding of human experience: neurobiology, developmental psychology, traumatology, and systems theory. The contributors emphasize the ways in which the social environment, including relationships of childhood, adulthood, and the treatment milieu change aspects of the structure of the brain and ultimately alter the mind. Edited by Dan Siegel and Marion Solomon, contributors include Allan Schore, Bessel van der Kolk, Mary Main, Robert Neborsky, Francine Shapiro, and Diana Fosha.
The Developing Mind:
How Relationships and the Brain Interact to Shape Who We Are

Dan Siegel addresses fundamental questions about mental health and dysfunction as he explores the ways that interpersonal relationships influence the genetically programmed unfolding of the human mind.

The 4th R and the Mindful Brain
In today's world, the basic three "R's" of education aren't enough. The three "R's" need a fourth basic skill: Reflection! Presented for educators and educational policy makers, this recording illuminates how reflective skills build the mindful brain and create nine "middle prefrontal functions" that range from regulating the body and emotions to empathy and moral behavior. The ability to reflect on the nature of the mind builds social and emotional intelligence, promotes compassion, and also enhances academic performance. Seems like a "no-brainer" that we should add this skill to our basic list of fundamental skills taught to students of all ages!
