The workshop will be composed three main parts: 1) An overview of recent research in the neurosciences and neruocardiology (the "brain" and the heart) that show the transcendent nature of human biology and growth, 2) Late adolescent and early adult development, and the ways in which cultural conformity modifies and blocks nature’s intent for mature intelligence, and 3) The underlying spiritual nature of both child and adult life and the interdependence of biology and spirit. Question-answer periods follow each of the four divisions of the workshop.
