Most of us spend a significant part of the day in front of a screen.

Neuroscientists estimate that over 90 percent of our operating systems—beliefs, behaviors, patterns—are unconscious. Since the surface story determines less than 10 percent of our decisions, how can we illuminate the shadow story responsible for over 90 percent of what we do each day? Once we systematically understand our relationship with money, our individual meanings and symbolism, can we overcome the mind and brain’s resistance to change?

“Discharged from a hospital just means you’re not dead.” These words of Ralph B. Lilly, M.D., describe his early struggle to recover from a traumatic brain injury. Lilly was a forty-four-year-old practicing neurologist sitting on his motorcycle at a red light when a drunk driver rear-ended him in 1980.

When you read a book, your brain strengthens neural connections related to analytical thinking and language. The simple act of going for a walk requires the coordination of spatial awareness and movement, along with dozens of other processes.
