The Bullied Brain Field Guide: A step-by-step companion to the Bullied Brain
Unfortunately, in our society, we mostly ignore our brains. We neglect them.
The Bullied Brain model, and the companion field guide are designed for you to engage with your brain, learn what makes it successful, and what makes it suffer. All forms of bullying and abuse can do serious harm to brains. BUT, our brains are wired to repair and recover.
Our brains have neuroplasticity which means we can change how our brains function based on what we practice. Our brains are also changed by the environment they are in. If you find yourself in a bullying, abusive environment, it can negatively affect your brain’s health and holistic functioning.
Exposed to bullying and abuse? Worried it’s hurt your brain? Do not despair. Your brain is wired to repair and recover and even become stronger!
The field guide teaches evidence-based practices to change the reader's brain to be healthier, happier, and more high-performing even if the reader is being exposed or has been exposed to toxic environments fueled by bullying and
abuse.
Matching the chapters of The Bullied Brain, the field guide encourages the reader to engage in exercises that turn theory into practice. The reader learns how to take scientific knowledge and apply it to actions and interactions.
The field guide draws on the science that fuels The Bullied Brain to inform the reader of the risks to brain health and wholeness. Exercises are provided to make sure this knowledge isn’t passive, but becomes an active part of the reader's life.

9 books59 followersHave you been bullied or abused? Do you want to learn strategies grounded in brain science to repair and recover? If so, read on! My new book The Bullied Brain: Heal Your Scars & Restore Your Health (Prometheus Books / Rowman & Littlefield) just came out in April 2022. Famed neuroscientist, Dr. Michael Merzenich says The Bullied Brain is "scientifically the most thorough treatment of the subject on planet earth." What's exciting and inspiring about your brain is that it is adept at recovery when you know what's wrong. What's engaging and empowering is when you learn evidence-based practices to heal your neurological scars. They might be invisible to the eye, but they can be seen on brain scans and they can be repaired. Our world full of bullying and abuse is built on myths. The best way to debunk myths is with science.
