In the last few decades, there has been a revolution in the field of neuroscience that is changing the way we live, love, and work. For many, it’s been difficult to keep up. The purpose of this summit is to bring you up to date with the latest research in a way that is accessible and practical.

Imagine having access to the world’s best neuroscientists and researchers.

Imagine being given not only an overview of the implications of the research but also practices and exercises by these same respected authorities, researchers, and teachers.

Sounds True created this summit to share with you the latest discoveries that have immediate application in your life—in a straightforward and practical way that does not require a background in neuroscience or previous study of the brain.

The Neuroscience Training Summit is your chance to learn directly from the world’s leading experts about their groundbreaking discoveries and, most importantly, how you can start to apply this wisdom to your life right away.

These experts will share with you the details of their research AND provide you with practical, experiential exercises and tools that you can use in your personal and professional lives. 

This training summit will be unique in that:
• Each presenter will invite you with experiential exercises, guided meditation, and practices
• You’ll receive a map of the inner landscape of your brain and nervous system
• Different presenters will focus on different applied fields of study
