EBT, Inc.

Laurel Mellin embarked on a journey in 1978 to address childhood obesity, leading to the development of the Shapedown Program. Her innovative approach focused on emotional connection, paving the way for Emotional Brain Training (EBT). Over decades, Mellin and collaborators integrated neuroscience findings into EBT, emphasizing rewiring stress responses. Their method, now known as Emotional Plasticity Theory, targets neural circuits for lasting change. Recognizing the need for scalability, Mellin and her team embraced technology, creating a platform for remote EBT sessions and peer support. Amidst rising stress levels, EBT offers a path to resilience and empowerment, bridging neuroscience and spirituality for individual and societal well-being.
