Emotional systems; Stress; psychoneuroendocrinoimmunology (PNEI); Neurophysiology and psychophysiology of posture; Systemic modulation; Practice with psychosomatic approach.
Extended Syllabus Development of the central nervous system, evolution and behaviour
Hierarchical-systemic relational model of the CNS: the triune brain theory.
The body and the reptilian brain.
Emotions and the limbic brain.
The thought is the neocortex.
Communication between the "three brains" and the hierarchy of psychosomatic processes.
Communication within the system: information molecules
Transmission of information within a unitary system.
The informational substances: "molecules of emotions".
The neuronal systems of emotions
Emotional systems: studies on the main channels of psychosomatic expression of the individual.
Emotional Systems of Research, Anger, Fear, Sexuality, Care, Sadness, Play.
Inhibition/hyperactivation of emotional systems and influences on the psychosomatic state of the organism.
Stress and psychosomatic correlations
Neurophysiological aspects of the eustress and distress "attack-escape" response.
Systemic stress correlations: influences from and on the immune system, neuroendocrine axes, psyche, organs and systems.
PNEI:psycho-neuro-endocrino immunology
The internal language of the body: PNEI communication.
Mutual influences between the body's main physiological regulation systems: the nervous, endocrine and immune systems.
Influences of the psyche on the "biological network".
Neurophysiology and psychophysiology of posture
Organization of the tonic-postural system.
Emotions and influences on the tonic-postural system.
Psycho-motor development: correlations between emotions, learning and acquisition of motor patterns.
Development of character and body structure.
The modulation of the human network: genetic and epigenetic factors
Nutrition, physical activity and effects on the central nervous system.
Meditation: studies on neuroendocrine effects and on brain electrical activity, in single individuals and in groups.
Correlations between psychosomatic states and levels of brain coherence.

Methods of Provision
Teaching Methods Lectures and theoretical/practical lessons
Evaluation methods Verification of learning:
Oral examination
Written Examination "Optional" if requested in a motivated manner.
Contacts/More Information Theoretical/practical lessons will be carried out on the correlations between the main regulatory functions of the human body (systems and systems) and the psyche and how these influence each other. These lessons will be aimed at providing some bases and evidence of the psychosomatic approach to stress management and increasing mental and physical wellbeing
