TheBrains and TheBoss

 What a week it's been. TheBrains and I have been hustling through the days getting our book ready for publication. You would not believe how many times we've read it, looking for confusing language, typos, misalignments and those weird things that turn up in files that have gone back and forth between different computers. Yesterday we accepted the proof for the actual book and one day soon a box of them will show up at my post office. We are exhausted. Well - yes. We're tired but we still have so much more to do and if only someone would get up offit we'd be able to send out emails to everyone who has said she'd like a copy of the book. There she goes, picking on me again. Look - this is something entirely new and scary and exactly the kind of thing you can do wrong and the next thing you know the computer is hacked and the bank account is emtpied. This is about software and money.  And there aren't any experts who can walk us through the proceess of putting Pa...

  TheBrains: a guided journal for talking to the helpers in your head   will be available in late September 2021.    Your Right Brain lights up when you are doing something creative or have strong feelings. Your Left Brain lights up when you are doing it in an organized way or want to talk about it. When your creative self and your organized self work together you can achieve wonderful things. This guided journal will teach you how to tap into both sides of your brain to unleash your creativity and channel it into action.     This half book/half journal explains how to use both hands to record a conversation between your Right Brain and your Left Brain. The book part contains background in Right Brain/Left Brain theory and research and a step-by-step process for getting those brains to talk to each other.  TheBrains  share excerpts from some of their past blogs that demonstrate how to use this process to deal with procrastination, diet, ...

  Hi there! It's me! Right Brain - all emojified and looking to see if Blogger is going to show me to my best advantage. This is looking pretty good.    And here I am, Left Brain - in contrasting color. This looks like it's going to work And I get to be the good guy this time around after years of being a devil over on Spark People Hmmm. It looks like there is still a bit of learning curve with formatting - but at least we know we show up here.  And honey - you'll always be a bit of a devil. Heh heh - yeah - I always did like that hint of mischief.  Okay - let's post this and get to werk on the business side of TheBook. 

The process of tapping into your subconscious by stimulating the right and left hemispheres of the brain is tremendous fun and I have long wanted to share it with all of the people who have enjoyed TheBrains' blog posts over on SparkPeople. In recent weeks I have written a combination book and journal, co-authored by TheBrains of course, that gives a bit of the scholarly research behind the process, some background on how I began playing with the process, the 8 short steps for you to take so you can tap into YourBrains, and some examples, taken from my SparkPeople blog posts demonstrating how I've used the process. And yes, I did include the blog SUGAR BINGE, that dealt with how TheBrains helped after I had an emotional melt-down when my husband suffered a heart attack. That is the book part. The journal is a modest number of blank pages for you to experiment with opening up a conversation with YourBrains to help you deal with some of life's little problems. Why modest? ...
