The moment we take our first breath, we begin a complex dance between our brain, body, and senses that shapes everything we become. This profound exploration of human systems science reveals why Dr. Christopher Kevin Slaton believes we should reconsider how we understand ourselves and our development from infancy onward.
From birth, our brains lead our bodies through the overwhelming sensory experience of being alive. But when training precedes care, we disrupt our natural information flow processes. "You were born to care," Dr. Slaton emphasizes, explaining how our earliest environmental contacts program our internal sense of self. The distinction he draws between contact (initial engagement) and interaction (everything that follows) provides a framework for understanding human development that challenges conventional thinking.
The most transformative concept might be his differentiation between our "inner voice" and "brain talk." While the inner voice represents our emotional, sometimes chaotic reactions to life experiences, brain talk emerges as the measured, processed communication our brain sends after analysis. Learning to recognize and privilege brain talk allows us to manage our emotional responses more effectively, transforming crisis into opportunity for growth.
For those struggling with emotional regulation or feeling disconnected from themselves, Dr. Slaton offers an alternative to pharmaceutical approaches. By understanding ourselves as technologies with organized information flows, we can learn to process life's challenges through what he calls "reflective storytelling" – consciously engaging with our experiences to transform inner turmoil into ordered understanding.
