Public Lecture Friday, February 3, 2012 • 7:00-9:00 pm Taking in the Good: Helping Children Build Inner Strength and Happiness – Rick Hanson, PhD Scientists believe the brain evolved a “negativity bias” that makes it like Velcro for negative experiences but Teflon for positive ones. This helped our ancestors survive, but it’s bad for children (and parents) today – leading them to overreact, hold onto hurts and resentments, and have a harder time developing inner resources. To address this challenge, this presentation will use practical neuroscience to show how to weave positive experiences into the fabric of the brain and the self – including how to pair a positive experience with a negative one to heal old pain. This lecture will take place at: UC San Diego Medical Center in Hillcrest Hillcrest Auditorium 200 West Arbor Drive, San Diego, CA 92103 Map and Driving Directions
