Virtual Info Session on Neurobiology of Transformation
The body, of which the brain is an organ, is the grand convergence of three cosmic forces: matter, energy, and consciousness. By attuning to it, we can live, thrive, reach our peak potential, and synchronize with the vast natural ecosystem. However, life’s trauma and social and cultural conditioning disturb the natural biological balance, causing discontent and chronic stress, leading to conflict, violence, and environmental destruction.
To address this, starting in April 2025, the Spiritual Heritage Education Network Inc. (SHEN), in collaboration with Ubiquity University, will launch graduate degrees in the Neurobiology of Transformation. This program will equip individuals with a scientific understanding of their body and mind. They will learn to restore balance through transformative practices, including yoga, breathing exercises, contemplation, and meditation. The program aims to help people live with health, happiness, peace, and purpose and become the builders of a better world.
