Helping chronically stressed people excel at work, life, and test-taking
while reconnecting to what gives them joy.

RBU helps people overcome deficits in executive function, those who have ADD/ADHD or who are on the autistic spectrum, struggling with test anxiety, or who have had childhood or adult trauma, allowing them to live fuller, healthier lives.
Elizabeth's work is based on the groundbreaking experience of Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor as discussed in her 2008 Ted talk My Stroke of Insight and her book of the same name, not the old, simplistic theory of what tasks the left brain handles vs what the right brain handles.
As Dr Bolte Taylor explains, "...the right brain operates as a parallel processor, and the left brain operates as a serial processor. The two hemispheres do communicate with one another through the corpus callosum, which is made up of three hundred million axonal fibers, but other than that, the two hemispheres are completely separate. Because they process information differently, each of our hemispheres think about different things, they care about different things, and dare I say, they have very different personalities. Our right human hemisphere is all about this present moment. It's all about right here, right now. Our right hemisphere thinks in pictures, and it learns kinesthetically, through the movement of our bodies. Information, in the form of energy, streams in simultaneously through all of our sensory systems and then it explodes into this enormous collage of what this present moment looks like, what this present moment smells like and tastes like, what it feels like and what it sounds like. I am an energy-being connected to the energy all around me through the consciousness of my right hemisphere. We are energy-beings connected to one another through the consciousness of our right hemispheres as one human family. And right here, right now, we are brothers and sisters on this planet, here to make the world a better place. And in this moment we are perfect, we are whole, and we are beautiful."
Dr. Bolte Taylor goes on to describe our left hemisphere as "...a very different place. Our left hemisphere thinks linearly and methodically. Our left hemisphere is all about the past and it's all about the future. Our left hemisphere is designed to take that enormous collage of the present moment and start picking out details, and more details about those details. It then categorizes and organizes all that information, associates it with everything in the past we've ever learned, and projects into the future all of our possibilities. And our left hemisphere thinks in language. It's that ongoing brain chatter that connects me and my internal world to my external world. It's that little voice that says to me, "Hey, you've got to remember to pick up bananas on your way home. I need them in the morning." It's that calculating intelligence that reminds me when I have to do my laundry. But perhaps most important, it's that little voice that says to me, "I am. I am."
Dr. Bolte-Taylor describes her experience of having a left brain hemorrhagic stroke where her left brain was taken offline, then briefly coming online, then offline, then online, as she alternated between being in a state of joy where she had no ability to understand the symbols on her phone to call for help, to frantically trying to call for help when her left brain would briefly kick in. Her contribution to our understanding these hemispheric states is enormous and Elizabeth highly recommends reading her book My Stroke of Insight.
Much of what ails us today can be attributed to our education system, which is geared towards developing the academic-minded left brain state. School these days is a developmental experience primarily for the left hemisphere. Thinking in pictures or kinesthethic learning is not rewarded outside of art, music, play, and physical education, but these experiences are often not included in a school day. Children are so overscheduled there is little time to drop into a right hemisphere state when at home. Throw in an excess of screen time, and it's no wonder teen suicide rates have risen: they don't know how to reset, and we're not letting them play on their own without electronics in order to learn that kinesthetically.
Unfortunately, these cultural and educational shifts can lead to an underdeveloped ability to be in a right hemisphere state.
Another issue is that people have dominant hemispheres as a survival mechcanism. When under stress, people can respond quickly by reacting out of their dominant hemisphere rather than having access to the full benefit of their intellectual capabilities. Each one of us has a pattern of where we fall on the scale between expressing more of a left hemisphere state or a right hemisphere state. Ideal would be somewhere in the middle, ready to respond to events and then rest and reset after. People who've been traumatized have a reduced ability to be flexible in this way. They are more stressed by events and less able to reset. People who suffered Adverse Childhood Experiences (see more at the CDC website) also commonly struggle with executive function deficits, have ADD/ADHD, issues with scholastic performance, school avoidance and refusal, as well as drug and alcohol abuse, overweight, work absenteeism, and chronic illness.
Right brain dominant people are under-served by our educational system. They often perform poorly on tests due to stress reducing the ability for them to access their left hemisphere skillset.
RBU's education, training and tools for allow the best version of people to shine forth. The results are increased creativity, reduced stress, better test and school performance, better immune and digestive system function, and an increased sense of happiness and well-being.

"Elizabeth Gould is the clearest channel of healing light and grounding energy I have ever met. She has the effective and genuine ability to effortlessly blend intuition, intelligence, deep source knowledge, non-judgmental direction, soul reflection, and trusted resources to address what calls out for attention in each moment. This not new age over-spiritualization; this is real life results on a practical and cellular level. The PanHarmonic Healing and Interactive Metronome sessions Elizabeth facilitated for my two grandchildren dealing with early trauma and attachment issues were nothing short of miraculous in the effect each meeting had on our daily experience: where I thought we were stuck, she created space for movement; where I thought we were doomed, she made space for hope. She not only practices what she preaches, but she also teaches what she practices, so that I left each session with new tools to employ on my own to extend the work at home. I have the utmost unbridled trust in her person, and her work and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone who desires real change, transformation, and empowerment to co-create lasting and true healing."

"I was yoyoing so much. I knew better than this but I couldn't get my emotions under control. After working with Elizabeth, I feel more equilibrium, more buoyant, and no more victimhood!"
