Understand Your Brain – The First 1000 Days

This is the foundation talk for all of Nathan’s other talks, where you learn about the structure of your brain and how this impacts on everything you say and do. 

 

Nathan Wallis provides an informative and engaging narrative on how our loving day-to-day interactions with children , significantly the first 1000 days, plays a critical role in defining later outcomes for our children and for their future.

In contrast to what your parents believed, your outcomes are not predetermined just by your genes and it’s not about learning alphabets, numbers or colours. It’s about being in a safe, loving and interactive environment. The more love and positive interaction you experience in your first 1000 days of life, the more developed your brain will be. This will ultimately impact all of your child’s life-long outcomes.
