What is
Higher Brain Living?
Watch this video for a deep dive conversation about Higher Brain Living. What it is and how it works!
Higher Brain Living Interview with Doctor Steven Giron
The Higher Brain Living® System profoundly increases energy in your Higher Brain, helps you create a new map of your life, and brings that empowered Higher Brain state to all areas of your life. This is how true and lasting transformation happens.
Short Higher Brain Living Demonstration
We do not use all of our Higher Brain’s potential.
There are a multitude of studies supporting this today. Tibetan meditators showed profound changes in the Higher Brain when they entered into advanced states of consciousness. However, their average practice was four hours per day for thirty years. Do you have time for that?
Studies now show that when the highest, most evolved part of our brain (pre-frontal cortex) is energized, we experience more clarity, confidence, purpose and meaning in our lives. This is even the area of the brain that leads to enlightenment.
Imagine the feeling you had on the best day of your life…
Now imagine being able to keep that same feeling for longer intervals. Imagine being able to tap into that feeling…anytime you want?
That feeling is produced by the prefontal cortex of your brain. And Higher Brain Living® helps that become your new baseline in life!
How It Works
- Activation of the “Higher Brain” vs. Stress/ Lower Brain: HBL’s core idea is to engage the prefrontal cortex (for calm problem-solving and joy) and ease the primitive stress responses from the lower brain. Science backs the benefit of this shift: Under acute stress or anxiety, our sympathetic “fight or flight” response directs blood and oxygen away from the prefrontal cortex, impairing clear thinking
- Goal: By activating the higher-thinking regions of the brain, HBL aims to help clients shift out of stress or fear-based responses (often associated with the primitive “fight-or-flight” brain) and instead engage more of their rational, creative, and confident mindset.
Gentle Touch-Based Stimulation
- Practitioners use a specific hands-on technique applied to certain areas of the body, particularly the spine and scalp.
Breathwork & Body Awareness
- Conscious breathing techniques and body awareness exercises are incorporated to amplify and sustain this shift.
- This enhances neuroplasticity, helping to "rewire" the brain
Step-by-Step Personal Development System
- HBL includes a structured program that guides individuals through different stages of personal growth.
- It incorporates mindfulness, intention setting, and self-inquiry to help participants create a more meaningful life.
Right now, in your body, your Higher Brain is not in control—your lower, reptilian brain is. The lower brain is what creates stress and anxiety, and it desperately wants to stay in control.
The old lower brain was designed to keep you from being eaten by a tiger. To the lower brain, sameness = safety. All your lower brain cares about is that you wake up alive (not eaten by a tiger). When you do, your life is evaluated as safe and successful by the lower brain…even if you’re miserable.
This is IMPORTANT: The lower brain then habituates those same patterns that you have been living and the nerve fibers become myelinated to make those habituated patterns so efficient they become your unconscious default state.
Bad relationships? Hate your job? Money trouble? Lack of purpose? Unfulfilled? As long as it’s the same, the lower brain says, “Success!”
Through evolution we now have the architecture for transformation in our lives—the latest marvel of evolution is here. We have the anatomy for transformation but not yet the function because we have not been able to loosen the grip on the lower brain enough for the center of gravity of brain function to shift to the higher centers. Our evolutionary potential is in the Higher Brain. The solution to our individual problems and the collective problems of our culture and the world is available in the Higher Brain!
So Lets Connect The Dots...
1.
We have great potential sitting in our Higher Brain (prefrontal cortex), currently not in use
2.
There is a dormant energy source in our body that, when awakened, flow along pathways in our body.
3.
Due to lower brain dominance, the untapped Higher Brain and latent energy source are not connected.
4.
Higher Brain Living® makes the connection by awakening the body’s energy and directing it to the Higher Brain.
Scientific Evidence
- Preliminary Clinical Trial (2022): A small controlled study (University of Iowa) provided the first peer-reviewed data on HBL. In this trial, participants who received HBL sessions showed significantly greater improvements in well-being compared to a control group pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
Key outcomes included higher scores in:
- Happiness: Participants reported feeling more overall happiness and positive mood.
- Flourishing (Life Purpose & Fulfillment): HBL clients had an enhanced sense of thriving – including aspects like meaningful relationships and sense of purpose – while the control group did not see such gains
- Mastery: Those undergoing HBL reported greater feeling of mastery over life’s challenges (a sense of being able to handle stressors)
Results: In the study, 14 adults received the HBL intervention and 9 were in the no-treatment control. After the program, the HBL group saw statistically significant boosts in happiness, personal mastery, and flourishing scores, whereas the control group did not
One published summary concluded that “HBL demonstrates efficacy in improving well-being” and serves as initial evidence supporting its benefitshigherbrainliving.com
- Pilot Observations: Earlier, an internal pilot survey in 2014 (prior to the formal study) also hinted at positive effects. Individuals reported improved well-being across nearly all measured domains after about 8 HBL sessions
