this means about your brain!

Your brain has...some organization!

You can usually have 2-3 things going on at the same time until a big life event or a fourth stressor comes along. That's when you either drop everything or go into panic mode.Your pons, which is the part of the brain that is in charge of most of our automatic functions, is pretty organized. It's a good foundation for the rest of your brain, which is why most of the time you feel good and handle life well.

The only problem is, sometimes your pons tries
to do its job as if it were 100% organized

Your logical brain (the cortex) usually feels supported by the pons doing its automatic jobs, but when the stress sets in it’s like there’s no support at all! Your cortex now has to try to do all of its own jobs and add the pons’ jobs on top of that.

This is why you sometimes struggle with:

Anxiety Perfectionism Controlling
behaviors Lack of
coordination Difficulty regulating
body temperature Clumsiness Explosive
reactions Lack of impulse
control Sensory
processing Difficulty with
transitions Flakiness/difficulty
with commitment Difficulty paying
attention Difficulty
sitting still Trouble reading and/or
writing Poor planning and
organizational skills Tantrums/meltdowns Difficulty with bowel/
bladder control Excessive shyness Stage fright Difficulty forming strong
relationships

The cool thing is that you can reorganize your brain at any point in your life so that the primitive part of your brain can understand how to do its job, and you can live your best life!

FAQ

Does the cost cover the whole family?

Yes! It covers the whole household, and it’s even more transformative when the whole family participates. ITC families create the most incredible bonds

What kind of equipment will I need?

One of the great things about our In the Cortex program (besides the fact that anyone can do it!) is that it requires little to nothing in terms of equipment. All of the program’s movements can be done using nothing other than your body. However, depending on your body weight, age, bone structure, and the kind of flooring you have, some of the movements might have you wishing for some padding. After all, we aren’t babies anymore!

Many clients find that knee pads or other cushions/padding are helpful. You don’t need to buy anything – you can get creative! We will give you a few options when you start the program. Our clients have shared numerous ways they’ve created cushions for their knees, hips, elbows, etc. with items from around the house. This need is often temporary while your body gets used to moving in a new way.

How long will it take to reorganize my brain?

Every brain is different and every brain has a different starting point. Our program gives your brain a solid foundation to build upon, with the tools you need to continue with confidence. We recommend doing at least 12 weeks (one for each module) but some people will need more time, and some people will need less.

What is the daily commitment?

Our program is designed to be simple and accessible. The maximum commitment we encourage is 20 minutes per day for 12 weeks.

After the 12-module program, participants have the option to continue on their own schedule. In the Cortex is a lifestyle program, and you will want to continue using the tools you learn for the rest of your life :)

What if I have physical limitations?

All of our exercises can be modified depending on the level of movement available to each participant. There are so many ways, both physically and mentally, to participate in this program, that nearly anything is possible. Our Brain Coaches are always available to guide you through different modifications for each movement.

What is the ideal age for this program?

The ideal age for our program is 2 years and up! Yes, that’s a big range!
The only time we take age into consideration is if a child is less than 2 years old, in which case the focus begins on the parents.
