“After 22 years and 83,000 brain scans… the single most important lesson my colleagues and I have learned is that you can change people’s brains. And when you do, you literally change their life.”
In both yoga therapy and meditation we believe in treating the individual. Daniel Amen is a famous psychiatrist who specialises in brain disorders and sees treating the individual as key:
“Treatment needs to be tailored to individual brains, not clusters of symptoms.”

For meditation teachers and yoga therapists, it may take a lifetime of continual research to learn to treat the individual, particularly the brain, in light of the emerging neuroscience.
Indeed, a worthy passionate pursuit.
