\nWilliam Struthers, Ph.D.
\nSocietal and cultural changes continue to keep sexuality at the forefront of the national dialogue,\u00a0including the connection to the brain. Dr. Struthers discusses the Theory of Brain Organization,\u00a0as well as nervous system and gender differences that impact autonomic responses, affect,\u00a0cognition, behavior, and more. The nuances of infatuation, passion, and intimacy are also\u00a0explored.
\nSXAD 102: Wired for Intimacy: The Neuroscience of Sexual Addiction Part II<\/strong>
\nWilliam Struthers, Ph.D.
\nIn Part II, Dr. Struthers examines diagnostic factors related to brain function and sexual\u00a0addiction, such as excitement seeking, dysregulation, gender differences, emotional avoidance,\u00a0and motivation. Screening and assessment tools are reviewed that help distinguish between\u00a0use, misuse, abuse, full-blown addiction, and tolerance. Treatment recommendations are also\u00a0offered.
\nSXAD 103: Lust and Fantasy: Taking Every Thought Captive<\/strong>
\nMark Laaser, Ph.D.
\nThe Apostle Paul\u2019s teaching states that believers are able to take their thoughts captive and\u00a0make them obedient to Christ. Dr. Laaser addresses short-term behavioral strategies, as well as\u00a0long-term spiritual and emotional growth that are necessary to achieve this goal. Understanding\u00a0brain chemistry, the role of fantasy, and how they are messages from the soul are key\u00a0components.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
