BodyTalk is a healthcare system that works with to harmonize the body on all levels. The premise is that the body is designed to heal itself, which is does through communication. BodyTalk works to improve the communication systems within the body so that it can be more efficient and heal itself more effectively.
Balancing the cortices is one of the most important techniques in BodyTalk. It works to balance the brain, which is involved in everything we do! Everything in the body is reflected in the brain, therefor by balancing the cortices we are bringing attention to brain, and helping to improve it's function and subsequently the health of the entire body.

One of the other very important things about balancing the cortices is that it helps to shift the body and mind out of 'fight or flight' (sympathetic) and into 'growth and healing' (parasympathetic). We often get stuck in flight or flight which causes great stress to the body, and breaks sown those communication pathways in the body. It's like too many plugs are plugged in and our circuits 'blow'. This causes us to get stuck in a stressful state, and from this place, everything is more difficult- including healing.
Balancing the cortices also balanced the right/left brain which is fundamental for a healthy body and mind.
The right brain is the more intuitive side, imagination and it can work holistically- looking at the big picture. It is responsible for our creativity and and artistic abilities.
The left brain is responsible for our reasoning, logic and thought. It looks at the details and works in a linear way therefor it is slower. It is our knowledge and our learned behaviors.
Most people spend most of their time in their left brain, with periods in the right brain. Usually it is inconsistent and we will flip flop between the two or spend most time in just the left brian. What we would like is to have both sides of the brain working together to provide us with the ability to connect to the big pictures whilst knowing the details, have logic AND intuition, be able to be aware of where we're going at the same time as knowing the steps to take....
Balancing the cortices daily starts to bring the body and brain back to a state of health where we can naturally move between different events without getting stuck in fight or flight and start to live using our whole brain.
I highly recommend balancing your cortices in the morning when you wake up, before you go to sleep, and if you have any kind of shock or trauma. If you have an accident, a headache, cut yourself, are stressed out, receive some bad news... tap out your cortices and watch how you relax and return to a place where the body can start healing. Get out of shock, and start healing!
Try it, and let me know how you get on!

Hi Laura, thanks for that, I just stumbled on your video, I am now interested in finding out more about balancing cortices, I feel pretty good right now, but Im always a big skeptic so wondering if its a placebo affect. Can you direct me to any good websites with more info? Also, how often would you recommend we do this?
Thanks again.
