In this module of the course, we explore anatomy and neurology at an introductory level to give us the vocabulary and theory to go deeper into how our brains and bodies work together and impact our relationships to ourselves and others.
We all walk around the world thinking of ourselves as individuals. But in this short animation, NPR’s Invisibilia explores some of the ways in which we’re all invisibly connected to one another.
Observe the schematic and consider this related quote:
“As you co-regulate with someone, the mirror neurons in their brain are activated, and this enables the person in the deregulated state to literally ‘mirror’ your calmness.” —Caroline Leaf, PhD
