These links will take you to sample articles from Connections & Reflections, the GAINS Quarterly publication. Our authors seek to make interpersonal neurobiology tangible - applying the principles with clients, students, and themselves - in an effort to find the most effective ways to integrate brains, make minds coherent, and deepen empathy in relationships. In addition to professional, neurobiologically-sophisticated articles, we will also enjoy sharing some personal reflections, poems, and cartoons - those offerings that add additional spice to the soup. If you are intrigued by these concepts and the way they are presented, you can order back issues of the Quarterly using the button at the bottom of the Home page. The member price is $15.00 per edition, and the non-member price is $30.00 per edition. We welcome your participation in the Quarterly. You will find the guidelines for submissions, topics, and due dates below. Supporting the Mindful Physician by Eugene Beresin, MD NeuroLeadership: Toward Integration by Debra Pearce-McCall, PhD The Mind to Lead Model by Suzanne Kryder, PhD Secure Attachment by Lauren Culp, MA, LMFT Department of Education by Kirke Olson, PsyD Reconsidering the Nature of Trauma by Bonnie Badenoch, PhD Personal Reflections with Diane Ackerman My Brain Changed: Healing PTSD Through Creativity by Denise Sims The writing and editing staff of Connections & Reflections, the GAINS Quarterly seeks to embody IPNB principles in the process of developing each Quarterly. We strive to have a FACES* (flexible, adaptive, coherent, energized, and stable) experience with one another, filled with COAL* (curiousity, openness, acceptance, and love). We seek to foster creativity, respect, teamwork, and good humor, while we hone the neuroscience and deepen the applications about which we are writing. We feel that if we are able to embody these principles in the creation of the Quarterly, this will show in the finished product - and we may be contributing to a more awake and compassionate world just in the way we work together. Sometimes, the result has been so integrative that we feel like the edition has been written by one mind with many hands. Since drafts are submitted 30 days before the publication date, there is ample time for a back-and-forth editing process, one that continues until both the author and the editor are satisfied with the final article/poem/personal experience/cartoon. In both content and style, we seek to offer our readers sustenance for their right and left hemispheres, so that learning can be whole brained enough to lead to changes in the way we work and live. Now for the nuts and bolts... For authors, you are invited to submit a theoretical article, research results, case study, poem, cartoon, personal experience, work of art, photograph, or other creation related to the next Quarterly's theme (see below). To begin... When your proposal is accepted... What to consider when writing articles... What happens next... For editors, if you would like to join the editorial staff of the Quarterly, email Bonnie so a conversation can begin. Thank you! The next edition of Connections & Reflections will be published on November 30, 2010. This will be a special double edition to celebrate our Fifth Anniversary! Exciting times! The theme is Remembering and Imagining: The Past, Present, and Future of IPNB. Proposals are due October 1st, with drafts due October 15th. Thanks!
