Brain Based Therapy summarizes a new model called BASE that incorporates neuroscience into psychotherapy. BASE stands for brain, attunement, systems of care, and evidence-based treatment. The model views the brain as shaped by relationships and experience, and sees the goal of therapy as helping clients manage stress to regulate their brain and enhance neuroplasticity through attunement and addressing lifestyle factors like sleep and exercise.

R.S.V.P Conference September 29, 2010
- This presentation does not suggest mindfulness practices should immediately replace current medication.
- A holistic model of treatment, as opposed to the current medical model, should be considered.
- Medication issues should be negotiated with the prescribing physician prior to discontinuation or change of medication.
- At least initially, in many cases, the combination of medication and alternative therapies seems to be the best possible option toward recovery for many people.

August 25, 2018
Many people throughout the world experience some type of depression in their lives and it is one of the most common mental disorders. The current statistic show that depression is linked to genetic, environmental, biological and is also psychological. Depression can ben found with any age person. A small child or an adult may have to deal with the depression that is affecting them. Chemical imbalances in the brain is the leading cause for a person dealing with the depressive order. The neurotransmitter is the what we call the communicator between the brain and the limbic system. Researchers study the limbic system in the brain as this is where depression starts; especially for anxiety and stress. The 3 major neurotransmitters; serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine all have direct relations with a persons’ depression and anxiety.
Serotonin plays a crucial role in our brain. It is associated with many physical actions that we may portray. The actions associated with serotonin are mood altering, sleeping patterns, eating disorders, and aggression. If a persons’ serotonin levels decrease, they may experience these depressive symptoms. This can also make persons have a feeling of self-worth and suicidal feelings.
Another transmitter in the brain which is associated with the depressive disorder is dopamine. This is the part of the brain that deals with our motivation and how we gain the feeling of self-worth and self-pleasure. Early studies suggested that an existence of neurotransmitter norepinephrine deficiency in some certain areas of the brain resulted in depression. One main cause of depression is the reduction in the concentration of certain neurotransmitters in the brain, such as serotonin and dopamine. The decrease in the concentration of these neurotransmitters leads to disturbed neuronal signal processing which leads to alterations in the structure of the neuronal networks. These basic changes are accepted to be one of the fundamental purposes behind sorrow. The emergence of neuroimaging techniques, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography (PET) and functional fMRI, established the importance of the ‘neurocircuit of emotion’ which has been expanded to include other important brain areas and the prefrontal cortex (PFC). These brain sites and their connections, which have been widely studied, are responsible for maintaining emotional stability and their malfunction is considered central to the pathophysiology of depression (Palazidou, E., 2012).
Recent follow up studies also shows that there is a group of individuals with a depression disorder who exhibit low levels of the chemical norepinephrine. In autopsy studies, it has been shown that in comparison,.

Application of The Cognitive Psychology in Mental Illness or Trauma
Introduction
In the present times, the number of people suffering from mental challenges has been on the rise. It is a time that demands psychologists to have better and effective scientific methods that would help them handle the different psychological issues being brought to their attention. Cognitive psychology is one of the scientific methods that can be used by psychologists to study the mind as an information processor. Using the method, psychologists are able to develop cognitive theories and models that would align and seems applicable in individual cases they are handling for instance, how one perceives, understands, remembers, attentiveness, makes use of language and is conscious of things.
The principal goals of clinical psychology are to generate knowledge based on scientifically valid evidence and to apply this knowledge to the optimal improvement of mental and behavioral health (Baker, McFall, Shoham, 2008). The values, principles, and methods of cognitive psychology and psychodynamic psychotherapy are anticipated to be utilized in an investigation which replaces maladaptive behaviors. The interest in the study is centered around increasing social response while decreasing maladaptive behaviors by utilizing differential reinforcement of alternative behaviors. Differential reinforcement of alternative behaviors is a procedure that reduces a problematic behavior by reinforcing an appropriate alternative behavior that serves the same function.
Research topic (Cognitive Psychology in the influences of patient with trauma or mental illness)
The research paper revolves around understanding how cognitive psychology influences patients with trauma and mental illness. It is evident that cognitive psychology revolves around the study of the process within the brain and they vary from learning, perception, attention, memory, thinking, language, attention and problem-solving (Maslow, 1943). The mental illness and trauma are a result of some of the brain processes thus with embracing the school of cognitive psychology it is easier to understand and comprehend the potential solutions. The problem of mental illness has become complaisant in the current era and with the limited resources and technology in the past made it a challenge to contain it but the advancement in field of psychology has made it easier to find solutions to the problem. There is no specific treatment for trauma or mental illness in this era of medical advancement and technology but cognitive psychology is making it easier to help under.

Cognitive, Emotional and Motivatioinal Dysfunctions in Mental Illness? Cognition Final
Abstract?Summary
The following paper outlines a research dialogue which emphasizes the present state of the understanding we have regarding the cognitive, emotional as well as motivational dysfunctions in relation to mental illness. The research is going to focus on the influences, relations to, and even the impact the mental illness has on motivational, emotional as well as stress. The major focus in the research discussion will be the critical essentialness of the motivational process as well as the possible influence it may have on the cognitive function as well as learning in mental illness. The members of my research group provided several questions which would assist us in conducting a deep research about the motivation process. The questions included; the measurements as well as the definition of the diverse motivation components. The second question will focus on the connection between incentive drive, intrinsic motivation as well as the hedonic processing. The third question will focus on the integrity of the motivational process, the hedonic process as well as the incentive drive in mental illness. The fourth questions will focus on the influence that the cognitive shortfalls have on the motivational disorder in mental illness. The fifth question will focus on the control of the antipsychotic treatment on the incentive drive as well as the hedonic processing of the mental illness. Lastly, the sixth question which was raised would focus on the relationship between the cognitive function, the aversive stimuli process as well as stress. This is a robust number of questions to answer in a paper this length. It may have been better and easier on you to stick to one or two questions and answer each in more detail. Just a thought.

generation CBT for psychosis was successful but the strength of the treatment was weak and as the author states similar to those of clozapine (an antipsychotic used as a last resort for psychosis). Therapy is not up to date as it should be for delusions as delusion are understood quite well and therapy needs to catch up. The treatment of CBT for psychosis is similar to CBT treatment for anxiety.

Evaluate the usefulness of the source for your literature review, making sure to directly state why the source is informative for your specific topic
Three dimensions of delusions are always present in factor analyses and they are a conviction, distress, preoccupation, and disruption to life. More studies need to be done to learn how delusions respond to antipsychotic. Conviction has been least amenable to change shows the studies. Many studies ponder the question, “why does conviction exist?” There have been studies that show that reasoning bias including “Jumping to conclusion (JTC)” bias and by patients being inflexible contributes to the maintenance of delusions. JTC has also shown that the dimension of conviction of delusions and the severity of delusions is influenced by JTC. Delusions improve during the first few weeks of treatment and some studies show improvement in the first few hours.
It was hypothesized that delusion distress and preoccupation would reduce significantly over two weeks of antipsychotic treatment; but not a conviction. Female participants showed a higher response on all four delusion dimensions compared to the male participants. 57% of the participants showed the JTC bias. The no-JTC group showed a larger improvement in conviction and distress and with their delusions in general.
This study is important for my literature review and further studies because the three dimensions of delusions: distress, preoccupation, and conviction are important for the clinical implications of treatment. If we take into account these three dimensions it will benefit further research and treatments.

Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

way to think about, classify and treat mental
conditions, and became institutionalized in a model
Arden refers to as the pax medica
The pax medica medicalized psychology and
psychiatry
Part of the success of Prozac was based on the
appealing notion that it corrected „chemical
imbalances‟ in the brain, and well-controlled drug
trials seemed to prove the theory behind the product
4. Origins
In the U.S one in 20 men, and almost one
woman in 10, uses an antidepressant
By contrast, about one in 20 adult Americans
sees a psychiatrist, psychologist or social worker
for psychotherapy
The number of patients treated for depression
with psychotherapy actually declined between
1987 and 1997, a decade during which
prescriptions for antidepressants doubled
5. Origins
Pharmaceutical companies have promoted the
idea that „chemical imbalance‟ is the cause of
depression, and massive marketing has
convinced millions of patients that by
manipulating their neurotransmitters they can
cure their depression
This „one-factor‟ model underlies the dramatic
success of serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs).
What it leaves out is that the brain is different
than the liver or other organs in the body. The
brain changes itself through experience,
especially experiences of interpersonal
connection that rewire the brain from birth on
6. B.A.S.E.
Arden and his colleagues created a model to
help other psychotherapists make the change
from the the old world of the pax medica
referred to as the „BASE‟ model
a new model that incorporates current
neuroscience, developmental psychology,
psychodynamic theory, cognitive psychology, and
psychotherapy research
BASE stands for brain, attunement, systems of
care, and evidence-based treatment
7. Experienced therapists who incorporate the brain-
based model into their practices learn to think about
case formulation in a different way, but typically do
not have to master new techniques
What the brain-based perspective adds is a cross-
disciplinary, biopsychosocial perspective that opens a
new way of understanding the psychotherapeutic
relationship
this new understanding results in a subtle shift in
therapists‟ attitudes toward patients and enhances
their empathy and respect for client experience
8. Another quality that Arden and his colleagues
stress is a lack of perfection. Like the „good
enough mother‟ they think that being a „good
enough therapist‟ is better than being a perfect
one. They say that imperfection gives patients
plenty of room to express the negative emotions
that are often a key to improvement, and is more
respectful of the patient‟s need to grow and
eventually separate from the therapist
9. B is for Brain
The brain is an organ that lives or dies by virtue
of its relationships with the brains around it. Our
genetic endowment for connecting with others is
prerequisite to all the brain‟s other capacities and
features
The brain‟s neuroplasticity is at the heart of
brain-based therapy
10. B is for Brain
Robert Sapolsky (1996) showed some years ago that under
prolonged stress the levels of the stress hormone cortisol stay high
and paradoxically effect two important brain modules. The
hippocampus, which encodes new memories and normally helps turn
off the production of stress hormones, shrinks; while the amygdala, a
part of the brain that stimulates the production of these agents, grows
in volume
Chronic stress creates a biological feedback loop, making it harder to
remember things, harder to think clearly, and intensifying anxiety.
Recent neuroimaging studies of anxious patients have pinpointed
amygdalar hyperactivity as a common mechanism underlying social
anxiety disorder and common phobias
The brain-based model incorporates these facts about stress
architecture as well as other research that demonstrates the role of
stress in anxiety and depressive disorders. A goal of brain-based
therapy is helping clients learn to manage stress and minimize their
allostatic load
11. Focus on getting control of
the Brain
Many studies support the idea that shifts in the balance of activity
between the two cerebral hemispheres is associated with positive or
negative affect.
In one study, a senior Tibetan monk underwent an
electrophysiological assessment during meditation
As the meditation progressed, marked shifts occurred in hemispheric
activation, with the monk‟s left hemisphere (LH) becoming more
active as the meditation progressed.
Activation of the LH had been shown previously to be associated with
emotions such as contentment and happiness
Greater activation of the right hemisphere (RH), by contrast, has
been associated with negative emotions such as sadness, anxiety
and anger. Shifts to the RH are also associated with lower self-
esteem in adults as well as depression
12. B is for Brain
The left- sided tendency to initiate approach behaviours
complements the tendency of the right to initiate withdrawal. Given
these findings, when working with anxious clients, we suggest that
therapists encourage the client to detach from the paradox of „trying
not to feel anxious‟.
The capacity to stop or shut down anxious thoughts lies in the client‟s
right pre-frontal cortex, and overactivating this module ironically is
likely to result in an increase in the anxious feeling the clients wants
to suppress.
On the other hand, accepting and riding out anxious feelings and
thoughts mindfully requires a shift from RH to LH functioning and
usually results in these feelings subsiding more quickly. Labeling
these affective experiences in therapy also helps the client shift from
right to left pre-frontal activation and clients are likely to experience
the positive affects and approach behaviours associated with this
move.
13. A is for Attunement
In successful psychotherapy, the clues to patterns of
psychopathology are inferred from the client‟s subtle
enactments and nonverbal communications
A new narrative is co-constructed by the therapist and
patient. At the heart of the process is the deep need
of the human brain for relatedness and reflection in
the glances, facial expressions and words of another
person
underscores the finding from the research that just
getting clients to verbalize their feelings about the
therapist‟s attunement to their experience produces
significantly better outcomes
14. S is for Systems
Bringing the brain back into psychotherapy suggests the
use of interventions that traditionally are not considered to
be within the therapist‟s purview. These interventions have
little to do with meaning but powerfully affect the brain. As
noted above, we find many psychological problems to be
down-stream effects of impairments in the brain‟s capacity
to regulate the neurodynamics of stress
If therapists ask, it almost inevitably turns out that suffering
clients have adopted behaviours and lifestyles that
unwittingly support this biological dysregulation
Expanding the scope of psychotherapy to include the
behavioural determinants of brain health requires us to
consider how the sleep, eating and exercise habits of
clients are affecting their embodied minds
15. S is for Systems
research illustrates the role that sleep, for example, plays in the brain‟s self-
regulatory processes:
Researchers have found a direct relationship between the levels of an
important neurochemical—brain- derived neurotropic factor (BDNF)—and
slow-wave sleep (the most relaxing kind). The more slow-wave sleep, the more
BDNF in the brain
“BDNF is a naturally occurring fertility drug for neurons.” It promotes enriched
synapses and facilitates the creation of new neurons (neurogenesis) in key
areas of the brain
During daytime activity—and especially as a by-product of aerobic exercise—
BDNF levels normally increase, and new synapses and neurons sprout in
areas such as the hippocampus, facilitating the production of new memories
and down-regulating the brain‟s stress centers. Slow-wave sleep appears to
counterbalance this expansionist daytime growth and may play a role in
conserving new memories encoded during the day. In a brain-based context, it
makes good sense to ask about sleep and exercise habits, and discuss their
likely relationship to the client‟s presenting problems
16. S is for Systems
A systems issue of a different kind has to do with the role of
psychotropic medication in many therapies. Patients have a right to
expect their therapists to have expertise about the side effects,
limitations, and dosages of commonly prescribed medications
A good working relationship with the prescribing provider and asking
the client about the experience of taking the medication are also
important. It is also usually helpful for clients to understand how
medications affect their brain functions, beyond the „one factor‟
neurotransmitter hypothesis of the pax medica
Recent research, for example, suggests that increased BDNF and a
resulting boost in hippocampal neurogeneis may underlie effective
antidepressant treatment
Together, the effects of joint psychotherapeutic-
psychopharmacological depression treatment push and pull the brain
back into a healthy allostatic balance
17. E is for Evidence
The brain-based model vastly expands the evidence-basis
for psychotherapy
Imaging studies confirm the importance of exposure in
treating anxiety. In a study of the effects of CBT on clients
suffering from a spider phobia, researchers used functional
magnetic resonance imagery (fMRIs) to document the fact
that exposure to spiders provoked hyperactivity in the
amgydalas and fusiform gyri of arachnophobes and
decreased the activation of their medial orbitofrontal
cortices (OFCs). The OFC is normally a major force in
down-regulating amygdalar activation. Over time, exposure
in the context of psychotherapy promoted increased
medical OFC activity and lower amygdalar activation in the
treatment group relative to controls
Client reports of symptom reduction correlated well with
decreases in amygdalar and insular activity
18. Changes in psychotherapy‟s evidence base
suggest that we are moving beyond the era of
the pax medica in to a more complex
understanding of how people change. New
evidence suggests that beyond the surface
differences of various therapeutic methods, at
heart we help clients change by enhancing the
neuroplasticity of their brains
