Is Internet-of-the-Mind fact or theory?

Internet-of-the-Mind (IOTM) is a metaphor I use to talk about change and some basic neuropsychology of the mind. Both terms - "change" and "mind" - are highly abstract and open to strong debate in any conversation where they come up.

I am not a neuroscience expert... I'm a therapist who has blended two decades of experience and learning into a model that makes sense to me. In these pages I stress -- and hopefully demonstrate -- over and over again that each and every one of us has our own "Map of Reality" or world view.

There are some things about the brain that we can now see due to technological advances in brain imaging and other areas. .. such as neural networks in action.

But even those who are neuroscience experts readily admit that we know just the tip of the iceberg about how the brain works. I know just enough to be incredibly fascinated and thoroughly amazed.

With Internet-of-the-Mind, I have blended what we are learning about the brain into my theoretical model of being human and helping others make the changes they want...

This model has grown and evolved for as long as I have been a therapist. It will continue to grow and evolve over the coming months and years -- thats the exciting part!

But it's still only MY model...other therapists have THEIR models and maps of "reality". This is the nature of diversity. My learnings and how I put things together will be helpful to some people but not others -- they will find what they need with someone else who has a more compatible world view.

Where should I start and what is the best way to navigate the site?

I have organized the website as if it were a networked database of information... If you click on a link it will take you not only to the relevant page, but to the specific location on the page where the linked information is contained.

So you can start on any page you'd like according to your needs or area of interest and follow the links...
