4 months of learning at the limit. The result is more than just grey theory – it’s grown grey brain matter. Thanks to neuroplasticity. I’m not really a show-off. And especially not when it comes to my blog. But I’m damn proud that I’ve managed this: Since January, I’ve been working my way through self-study videos and specialist texts with a workload of 48 teaching units, as well as taking part in 12 online seminars plus two 8-hour online revision sessions. In the end, based on an independent analysis of primary scientific sources, I poured my coaching method into a transfer concept and presented and defended it in a colloquium. I am now officially an Advanced Scientific Trainer.
On the way to the final exam, I sometimes thought ‘Help, where’s the reverse gear?’ Because I first had to come up with a learning method for approaching the topics of neurophysiology, neuroanatomy, neuropsychology and neuroscience. The highlight of this training programme is integrating what you have learned into practice. At the beginning, it’s all Greek to me. But then – when the first synapses start firing and wiring together and the dopamine shower becomes palpable – it’s exhilarating. This transfer into practice was so much fun – coming up with metaphors to explain to my clients in a simple way what happens in the brain when a trigger fires. And how we get from there to self-regulation. I love it!
I am currently revising my homepage. A new illustration willl be added shortyl! The texts and claim are halfway updated. And the order slump of the last few months seems to be slowly over. Thanks to consistent long-term acquisition!
It was a wild ride. I sat in the starting blocks for 4 months. Now I feel like I’m sitting more firmly in the saddle. The starting box opens. Next stop: Tel Aviv. Ready for take-off.
