Saturday, December 29, 2012. The Use of Eye Movement Therapy to Tackle Intolerance. Ere are the major points I’ve made in previous blogs:. 8230; The early learning experiences from parents and significant others that teach us to overuse “the suspicious eye” – the brain’s survival reflex that mistakes a stick for a rattlesnake - can add fuel to the fire of an aversion to differences. 8230; When a negative memory and focused attention to eye movements occur together, the dual stimulation seems to weaken th...

Dr. John Parrino: Miniscule Minds Have a Tough Time Embracing Diversity
http://drparrino.blogspot.com/2013/01/miniscule-minds-have-tough-time.html
Tuesday, January 15, 2013. Miniscule Minds Have a Tough Time Embracing Diversity. Raine again, here to answer Dr. Parrino’s question: Why is it so tough to embrace our differences? He may be right about stress, fight-flight, bad memories and all of that scientific stuff. For me, it comes down to one fairly obvious fact: small brains. Yea…it takes a rather miniscule mind to engage in prejudice, intolerance of differences and especially bullying. Think about it! School. You humanoids worry about your k...

Minds and habits of ‘the mean ones’.”. 8220;Here’s the deal,” I continued talking to moi. “As long as they make you miserable, they will keep on trying…damned them! Always picking on the tall, short, yellow, green, fat or lean.”. 8220;And further, my tender child,...

Monday, January 21, 2013. Raine’s Psychological Profile: Not Dangerous to Self or Others. Every wounded creature chooses a slightly different strategy for emotional and physical protection. Some learn to be brainiacs and try to outsmart everyone else. Others get bigger and stronger than the neighborhood bullies so no one with f* * with them ever again. Many make the big bucks so they can always buy their way out of trouble. I chose to, well, let me just show you what the School Psychologist wrote about me.

Why is it so tough to embrace our differences? The knowledge of th...

A married couple must confront more than a ‘lack of communication’ to heal a troubled relationship. Stress is a silent killer of love. The brain’s habit of swiftly igniting stress and defensiveness - the fight flight reflex - is the smoking gun of love’s demise. In my new e book, NEVER POINT A LOADED GUN AT YOUR MARRIAGE: How to Conquer Stress Before It Slays Your Love. John J. Parrino...
