The story of our EBT journey would be the greatest story ever told
Laurel has written, but most of us will be too busy living our lives in joy and purpose to write it. The King's Speech is the story of the rewiring from stress to joy of King George's brain on the eve of World War II with compassionate support from his unorthodox speech therapist Lionel Logue.

The use of expletitives in our process. The stress circuits downloaded in early childhood or created in times of trauma.
