What Makes an Earworm?
"The CLL gives us, and our lives, recognition, keeps us connected to society and feeds our souls."
Ever wonder why certain songs stick in your head? And when they do, what is it about the song that you recall? Is it the chorus, the lyrics, an instrumental solo or jingle? When a catchy tune is involuntarily repeated in the mind, it’s known as an earworm. These earworms wiggle their way into our brains, but how do they get there? In Dissecting A Hit Song: Why Songs Stick in our Mind (p. 17), discover the psychology behind the most aggressive earworms (or “hooks”) and the patterns that will help you create your own memorable music. Did you know? The best way to get rid of an earworm is to replace it with another. Read with caution! Some of our favorite earworms: • The B-52’s - “Rock Lobster” • TV Theme - "Jeopardy" • TV Theme - "Gilligan’s Island" • Disney - “It’s a Small World” • The Tokens - “The Lion Sleeps Tonight” • The Muppets - “Mahna Mahna”

"Three Things You Can Do to Keep Your Brain from Degenerating"
BODY, MIND, SPIRIT
with Dan Staso, Ph.D. Dan Staso, Ph.D., is a licensed psychologist with 30+ years of experience in psychotherapy. Dan specializes in promoting brain health and helping people sharpen their focus, lift their mood, reduce their fear, sleep better, and decrease memory loss. People begin to lose their memory as they get older due to deterioration of the hippocampus. Dan describes three simple things you can to do help stop that or reverse it: 1. Fasting - Have a late lunch, skip breakfast the next day, then eat a large meal around noon the second day. 2. Interval training - Exercise in alternating intervals of intense exertion and periods of rest or lighter exertion. 3. Turmeric - Taking this common spice in the form of a supplement called curcumin can help repair the hippocampus. Watch the video on the CLL YouTube Channel! www.youtube.com/sbccCLL

SoulCollage is a process that naturally inspires and enables us to embrace all aspects of who we are through collage. ‘The Shadow’ is a Jungian term often used in SoulCollage that has to do with balance. Any form, whether visible or invisible, has the potential to lose its balance and show its Shadow. When a self-energy becomes exaggerated, we say it is manifesting Shadow. And yet when a form’s energy is ‘absent when needed’ this is also Shadow. Our Shadow is the teacher, the trainer and the guide that supports us in uncovering our magnificence.

Did you know that the standard diagnosis of depression was developed based on research with women? Yet, the ‘covert’ expression of depression observed in men is far different than the overt expression of depression seen in women. Cultural expectations make it unacceptable for men to fall into emotional collapse, so wounded men keep depression well hidden. Men’s depression must be acknowledged and treated in a way that successfully accommodates this different expression.

Chuck Place Chuck has worked as an editorial photographer for over thirty years, specializing in travel, food and people on location. His assignment clients include National Geographic, Sunset, Islands, Time and Smithsonian. His work has also earned recognition from the New York Art Directors Club, the Western Art Directors Club and Art Direction Magazine. In addition to recent assignments for Disney, Sea Ray Boats, Westways, American Airlines and the Biltmore Hotel, Chuck recently finished a book on local cuisine for German publisher Kosmos. Fun Fact: A farmer I was photographing recently pointed out that there is a correlation between the color of a chicken’s egg and the color of its ear. I realized just then that I had never even seen a chicken’s ear. Words to live by: "If you are not having fun with your photography, you’re doing it all wrong.” Why he does it: Teaching photography is a wonderful way of sharing my lifelong passion for the medium with others and I pick up new techniques from my students all the time. In my view, a good class is one in which both the students and the instructor learn from each other. What you will learn: Students will learn how to use both hardware and software to capture what they see in their head. A person’s brain is the best camera.

‘What’s it going to be then, eh?’ This question, posed by the murderous young hero of Anthony Burgess’s A Clockwork Orange, has also been tackled by thousands of writers from Plato to Sir Thomas More to B.F.Skinner. Countless philosophers have provided models of ideal societies in which all human needs are satisfied. Reviewing these ‘model’ societies and their critics will lead inevitably to lively discussions. Come share your vision of utopia and ‘what’s it going to be.’

MIND & SUPERMIND MONDAY, OCTOBER 12TH
About Peter L. Nelson, Ph.D.
"Beyond Emotional Intelligence: The Non-Ordinary Attention of Seers"
Dr. Peter Nelson is a registered psychologist and social science researcher who consults with individuals and organizations in the USA, Australia and New Zealand. For the past 30 years he has also conducted research into non-ordinary experience and published his findings in academic journals and books in several countries and has been the subject of numerous interviews in the popular media.
A Workshop with PETER L. NELSON, Ph.D. Author of “The Way of a Seer: Reflections from a Non-ordinary Life” A seer is someone who can straddle two worlds at once: that of ordinary, everyday life, and of a second stream of perception known as non-ordinary attention. In this captivating presentation, Dr. Peter Nelson will explore the non-ordinary attention deployed by seers to perceive a person’s field, allowing them to directly know someone’s psycho-emotional state and the forces that shape it. Dr. Nelson will elaborate on the workings of consciousness and how seers are able to use attention in a unique way that directly opens a vista of interpersonal awareness. His stories of extraordinary episodes of seeing reveal the role of attention in non-ordinary perception as well as resolve the conflict between science and seeing in ways that do justice to both.
➜ Monday, October 12th 7:30pm - 9:30pm Location: Schott Auditorium Admission: $15
A native of New York City, Peter began his career in neurophysiology, then, in the 1980s, he switched to social science, focusing on how people create and experience reality. In the late 1980s he conducted ground breaking research into non-ordinary experiencing, for which he gained a Ph.D. degree from the University of Queensland in Australia. Since his conversion from neuroscience to social science, he has worked for universities, governments, non-profits and businesses as a research consultant on projects ranging from controlled experiments to survey research to end-user ethnography. Peter also has been a psychological counselor, life and business coach as well as a forensic psychologist, providing assessments of offenders to the Australian criminal courts.

Ferran Contell is a certified sommelier by the Escuela Española de Cata and holds Level II from the Wine & Spirits Education Trust of London. Currently he owns and manages Darsena Selections, an import and distribution company in Santa Barbara, bringing wines from his home country of Spain to the U.S. According to Ferran, the way we hold a wine glass affects the way we perceive the wine when we drink it. Did you know? Holding the wineglass by the bowl increases the temperature of the wine. 1. No matter what the shape or size of the glass or the type of wine, always hold the glass by the stem to avoid warming the wine. 2. Serve the wine at its correct temperature: • Red wine: 62-68 degrees • White wine: 49-55 degrees

MIND & SUPERMIND Beyond Emotional Intelligence: The Non-Ordinary Attention of Seers With PETER L. NELSON, Ph.D. Author of “The Way of a Seer: Reflections from a Non-ordinary Life” A seer is someone who can straddle two worlds at once: that of ordinary, everyday life, and of a second stream of perception known as non-ordinary attention. Explore the non-ordinary attention deployed by seers to perceive a person’s field, allowing them to directly know someone’s psycho-emotional state and the forces that shape it.
