*Interactive Screen Use: The Good, The Bad and The Ugly – An Informative Talk for Parents.
*The Brain on Screens: How Excessive and / or Uncomplementary Screen Use Can Effect Health, Wellness, and Development & How Clinicians Can Help.
A full day in-depth workshop for professionals exploring the primary effects of excessive & non-complementary screen/i-tech use on the (developing) brain, related behaviour, and what clinicians can do about it! For well over 30 years we have been assimilating interactive technologies in all aspects of our lives (work, play, parenting & education) with limited attention and functional understanding of the impact on our health and wellness. We did not explore, or otherwise ignored, effects on our biology other than those involved in product development or designed to capitalize on sales and usage patterns. In this workshop Dr. Mari Swingle will present 1] her research on the mapping (normative and clinical QEEG) effects on the adult brain and the developing person 2] 30+ years of progressive archival data 3] active clinical cases (diagnostic flags and treatment protocols) 4] how excess usage is often co-morbid / co-occurrent with other expressed pathology or subclinical illness 5] major and minor attitudinal hurdles and environmental/cultural obstacles that must be crossed to ensure successful treatment outcome.
Dr. Mari Swingle will cover universal alterations in biological priming & the rewiring or hijacking of biological systems as well as specifics in the socio-emotional and cognitive development of infants (e.g. attachment), children (e.g., vestibular system), adolescents (e.g., psycho-sexual development), youth (e.g., failure to launch), adults and seniors. She will also share her work on individual liabilities and epigenetic vulnerabilities. Variations by exposure patterns relative to chronological age, age of exposure, and nature of exposure will also be reviewed. She will demonstrate how screen (process) addictions including gaming addiction, social media addiction, pornography addiction, scholastic perfectionism and ‘screen workaholism’ are not insular; tending to be culturally or environmentally accepted or supported.

Dr. Mari Swingle presents:
How Cell Phones, Computers, Gaming, and Social Media are Changing our Brains, our Behavior, and the Evolution of our Species
“Is your cell phone invading your life? Are video games changing the personalities of your kids? Are you addicted to texting, email, or social media? Are you being sucked down the vortex of searching?”
Dr. Mari Swingle’s new book provides the clear scientific proof to back up what we’ve all been suspecting: we’re all subjects in a massive experiment to see what “i-Technology” (video games, social media, cell phones and a host of other screen-based devices) will do to our brains. The evidence is in, and it’s frightening. In a witty and entertaining style, Dr. Mari Swingle walks us through the science on how rapidly our brains are changing after 100,000 years of slow development, what the dangers are, and the positive steps we can all take to embrace technology while still saving our brains, and steering Humanity’s future in a much more human direction.
