What is energy? What is the mind? How does energy make the mind possible? By addressing these questions, this new 6-hour webinar breaks new ground. Previously, the terms “energy” and “mind” had nebulous and often confusing meanings. This seminar clears up the confusion. It describes how biological energy effects mental health. Through the emerging field of metabolism we have learned how fluctuations of energy significantly impacts cognition and emotional regulation. And based on these discoveries and new developments in neuroscience we can make sense of the fluid process that we refer to as the mind. This seminar begins by describing how each of our cells, including brain cells, contain energy factories called mitochondria. In fact, our brains are disproportionally among the highest energy consumers in our body. So, it is no accident that our brain cells contain a relative abundance of these energy generators. They comprise the backbone for our metabolism and produce our primary energy source called ATP—to remember them think “All that power.” The health of these energy powerplants not only plays an indispensable role in whether we live or die, but also whether we can maintain immunity to illness and enjoy mental health.
Energy fuels the feedback loops between our DNA, the strength of our immune system, and uniquely adapted brains. Which together contribute to the emergence of our sense of self. The webinar further explains how our brains are endowed with mental operating networks from which emerge states of mind that interact through feedback loops and give us the fluid experience we call the mind. Fundamentally, our coherent sense of self, mind, and our mental health all depend on constant supply of energy.
This course is based on the recorded webinar, Energy to Mind created by John Arden, PhD, ABPP in 2022.
