NEUROCALM TRAINING INSTITUTE
​
It appears there is more need than just the conventional way of processing situations through cognition. By experiencing, one can gain awareness/insight into oneself and situations. This is experiential rather than intellectual.Intellectual training focuses on knowledge transfer through theories, while experiential training emphasizes learning through practical experience. This methodology allows you to get to know yourself and what happens in your body and mind on a deeper level. It's not just about listening and taking notes; it's about experiencing, feeling, and doing, which brings about change.
