ABOUT UHA AND BOI PHILOSOPHY To learn about UHA and BOI philosophy, in regard to spirituality, higher education, and how to create a 21st century medicine that is effective and inexpensive, we recommend you enjoy this 10 minute Non-dual Guided Meditation and watch the next 3 videos.
10 MINUTE NON-DUAL GUIDED MEDITATION This 10 minute video-meditation is based on the Advaita or non-dual tradition. Advaita's gentle approach to meditation is unsurpassed -- in simplicity and effectiveness. All video loops were taped in the Ganges, India. Meditation consists of shifting the attention from mind to Consciousness. This guided meditation goes through three steps. The first one is a guided physical relaxation -- physical relaxation is not meditation but it prepares the body for meditation. The second part is a guided mental relaxation -- again mental relaxation is not meditation but it prepares the mind for meditation. The third part is meditation itself and it guides you to shift the attention from mind to consciousness or awareness. A ten minute meditation can be helpful, but sometimes too short to go deep. We recommend the complete 30 min video-meditation at:

The University of Healing Arts Promise of Quality Sierra Nevada, California Registering for a Certification Course Teaching is one on one -- one student per instructor. This system ensures that the student receives the necessary personal interaction with the instructor and does not waste his or her time with the slow pace of a class with dozens or even hundreds of students. Certifications The UHA offers cutting edge certifications in the following fundamental fields: Nutrition with emphasis in Brain Nutrition Counseling, Life Coaching with emphasis in the Mystical Path to Success and Spiritual Psychology Counseling with emphasis in Non-duality. Together they address the 3 fundamental aspects of human life: physical, mental and spiritual. The Unique Value of UHA Certifications Certifications are rarely, or perhaps never, recognized or credited as valid steps towards a Masters Degree. The University of Healing Arts acknowledges the significant investment and effort that obtaining a serious certification represents; therefore completion of UHA certification programs are credited towards the UHA Masters Degree in Life Coaching (and in some cases also towards the Masters Degree in Spiritual Psychology.) There are three certification courses required to attain this Masters. Each has been specifically designed to be a crucial part of an integrated, harmonious program that leads to true mastery. Throughout the Masters program, the student receives a solid preparation in the three fundamental aspects of life that govern health and happiness – physical, mental and spiritual.
What You Will Learn You will be taught the skills and knowledge necessary to effectively coach or counsel your clients towards the fulfillment of their life's purpose and soul potential. You will be taught how to guide them towards a fulfilling experience in the three fundamental aspects of life: physical (nutrition and caring for the physical vehicle), mental (positive thinking and caring for the mind), and spiritual (caring for the soul’s agenda and the “return home” into pure Consciousness). Transfer of Credits or Degrees The University of Healing Arts acknowledges that obtaining a Bachelor's degree almost always involves a significant effort and financial investment on part of the student. Therefore, in most cases, it is our policy to accept a student’s Bachelor's degree and welcome them to graduate studies. You will be required to present proof that you have completed a Bachelor's program. In case you have not yet attained a Bachelor's degree, and you are interested in pursuing one of our Masters program please contact us. Who are the Founders? The founders of the University of Healing Arts and the Brain Optimization Institute are Viviana Girardi, B.A. CYT and Juan Pablo Girardi, MS, MA. Viviana Girardi was born in one of the most beautiful places on the planet in the southern part of Chile. From early childhood she felt a natural inclination towards sports and physical education. She graduated from the University of Chile with a Bachelor's in physical education. In her early twenties she felt a deep interest in the spiritual life and Yoga. Viviana has practiced Yoga for over thirty years. She was certified as a Yoga teacher by Erich Shiffman and has been teaching Yoga, and leading healing retreats, for five years at the University of Healing Arts. Viviana is also an accomplished cook and teaches culinary arts at UHA. Juan Pablo was born into an Italian/Spanish family in South America. From early childhood he felt a great interest in science and later for the humanities, especially for Spiritual Psychology. At 24, he graduated in engineering from the most prestigious University in Chile at that time. After marrying Viviana, at 30, their spiritual interests brought them to the U.S. Here, Juan Pablo completed a Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology and obtained a State License to practice psychotherapy. Juan Pablo has accumulated extensive clinical and coaching experience, gained through seventeen years of working with clients. Eventually Juan renounced his license as a statement of personal independence from the mainstream, with its adherent traps and regulations. He is presently devoting most of his time to education and to his vision for UHA and BOI. Still he practices counseling but as a life coach, nutritional counselor and spiritual counselor. For over thirty years, Juan has also been deeply involved in studying nutrition and also spiritual teachings of all sorts. His greatest passion is Non--duality.

All courses are taught in the time-proven, mentoring, one on one tradition. Classes are held through the internet via Skype (or in person for those living in Los Angeles.).

Effective two-way teacher/student communication is the foundation for an educational standard that is appropriate to graduate studies, and has immediate benefits for the student.

Here the student learns how to use empirical, Cognitive Psychology to help the client identify and correct self-defeating thoughts and beliefs. Cognitive Psychology is possibly the fastest and most effective tool to help the client feel good again. Additionally, it changes negative programs into positive ones that allow for the manifestation of soul potentialities. Note: This course can be taken as a separate course. Even standing alone it is of great value, especially for those working in the health field. Please call us at 818-508-1720
Here the student learns how to ssess and correct negative, self-defeating thoughts affecting the client's self-concept.

LCC-105: From Victim to Victor. The student learns to use the powerful Victim, Victor and Vehicle model to help the client move from the Victim to the Victor state and beyond. This unique paradigm is a great assessment tool, and helps the client realize where he or she is stuck in the victim role. Additionally, it points the precise direction they need to move towards to establish themselves in the victor state.
LCC-106: Metaphysics. Pros and cons of metaphysics. The law of attraction -- true or false? The experience-belief cycle and how to break free of it. Positive expectations vs. no expectations. Metaphysical techniques to create positive expectations - positive denial, positive iIllusions, scripting, affirmations technique, and others.
Self-Caring, Identification of the Life Purpose, Goal Setting, Action Planning, Staying Focus, and Dealing with Expectations.

How this automatically leads to the highest ethical standards. LCC-109: The Mystical Path to Success (continuation) The Mystical approach to healing the relationship with money. The client has healed his or her relationship with money when they truly do not worry about money anymore. He or she can be a billionaire and worry about the future of their assets, especially when the world's economy is shaky. Healing the relationship with money truly, is quite different than learning how to make more money. The client may live on $1,000 a month and have a healthy relationship with money or make $20,000 a month and have a very unhealthy relationshp with money. A good Life Coach needs to know how to help their client heal their relationship with money - at a practical level and at a psychological and spiritual level.

How to create a successful Life Coaching practice.

SPC-101: Introduction to Spiritual Psychology In this course the student will be taught the Non-dual meditation practice - learning how to shift the attention from mind to consciousness. He/she will also learn how to heal mind and body through consciousness work. Additionally, the student is presented with Carl Rogers' unsurpassed insights and research on the foundation of effective counseling -- empathy and unconditional acceptance. SPC-102: The Soul Level -- Healing Through the Expanded Perspective of the Soul. This course includes the following topics: SPC-103 : The Map of Consciousness. The kinesiological test a window to discern truth from falsehood. Assessing and healing shame, guilt, despair, fear, sadness, anger and excessive pride, and how to approach these issues in counseling. Applying the Map of Consciousness to the spiritual path -- discerning true from false spiritual teachings. SPC-104: From Victor to Vehicle The student learns to use the powerful Victim, Victor and Vehicle model to help his or her client move from the Traditional to the Metaphysical and eventually to the Mystical state. This paradigm is a great assessment tool, and helps the client realize where he or she is stuck in the victim role or in the victor (metaphysical) role. Additionally, it points the precise direction they need to move towards, to firmly establish themselves in the Vehicle, Mystical state. SPC-105: Living a Life Free of Expectations Expectations are a source of suffering. A life free of expectations is an enlightened life. Even positive expectations can be frustrated and create suffering. In the beginning, through metaphysics, we learn to let go of negative expectations and create positive expectations. However, spiritual maturity leads to the next step where we let go of expectation altogether -- positive and negative. SPC-106: The Power of Surrender Surrender might be the fastest and easiest path to enlightenment. Surrender has many faces and here the student is presented with the most significant ones. One of them is the art of surrendering to the present moment. This requires to challenge the idea that time is real and that past and future exist.

Call us at 818-508-1720 SPC-107: The Power of Bhakti Yoga The student is introduced to the main four types of yoga – Bhakti Yoga, Psycho-physiological Yogas, Karma Yoga and Jnana Yoga. Understanding this classification allows the yoga practitioner, or spiritual aspirant, to choose the right type of spiritual path (or yoga) for him or her -- one that really suits their personality. Here the student learns most especially about the highest form of Bhakti Yoga which is, "Surrender to the Divine." Surrender to the Divine, in any form the Bhakti may conceive It, is a fast path to liberation and manifestation of soul potential. Billions across the planet practice some form of Bhakti Yoga -- Christians, Muslims, Jews, Buddhists, Hindus and so on. Because most counselors have clients participating in one of these major religions, we consider that a qualified counselor must understand the Bhakti Yoga path -- with its pros and cons. SPC-108: The Great Jnanis of India Here the student learns about the lives and teachings of the great Jnanis of India, the founding fathers of Non-duality in East and West. Their teachings include invaluable practices and concepts like Self-inquiry, the relative vs. the absolute perspective, free will vs. predetermination, Liberation by relinquishing the sense of autorship, and more. SPC-109: The Modern Advaitists of the West The modern Advaitists of the West are transforming our world from inside out. Here the student is taught how to live life from the center of his or her perceptions -- Awareness -- and, how to see the Divine not only beyond things, but also in everything -- Oneness.

Mammoth, California 2- TESTIMONIALS My classes with Juan for Brain Nutrition, Life Coaching and Spiritual Psychology, have been invaluable to my practice. The one on one sessions on the phone were the best medium for learning rather than being one of many students in a class. I had the privledge of learning from Juan personally, and being on the phone rather than in person enabled me to focus more deeply on what I was learning in each particular class. These classes were some of the best learning experiences I have ever had. I highly recommend these to anyone who wants to have an in depth learning experience with a man of great knowledge. Suzanne, * The Brain Optimization Institute provides a unique experience. The teacher to student ratio is exceptional, which is why they are able to offer a quality education in a very personalized environment. The quality of education I received at the institute is beyond compare. I highly recommend Juan Girardi as a professor and the BOI for an exceptional experience.
I Loved the books chosen for the course. And I really liked the interest and encouragement to share client cases in order to develop a better understanding and use. I also loved the class atmosphere. Additionally, I felt really comfortable to express personal concerns and experiences. -- Susan S. Dr. in Nutrition * I most enjoyed the class structure and content, I also enjoyed the sequence of the classes and the component of doing the psychometric tests to review the way to diagnose clients during class. The variety of books was excellent. I would love to be contacted for testimonials on web-site or call Very satisfied with the course - Thank you. -- Christina Cárdenas, BA, CN * I love the class size and the books. I think the group being small helps and the various authors keeps it fresh. I loved the place too. -- Tania, BA, CN * Steve's H. Case and Testimonial * Only 3 months into the Life Coaching course I experienced a dramatic shift in myself.

QUOTES FROM "THE POWER OF SELF-CARING" By Juan Pablo Girardi, MA, MFT, founder, Brain Optimization Institute and the University of Healing Arts.
“Self-Caring has been scientifically proven to correlate with higher levels of happiness. Taking good care of oneself – with all of its subtleties – is the surest way to stay healthy and feeling good. I urge you to learn the art of self-caring.” “Neglecting your nutrition is likely to result in neurotransmitter deficiencies, making the attempt to keep thoughts positive difficult, if not impossible; no matter how hard you try. Conversely, indulging in frequent negative thinking about yourself, the world and your circumstances, will make happiness elude you, regardless of how perfect your diet may be. Both forms of caring for yourself – good nutrition and positive thoughts – are vital, and they support each other.” “If you systematically apply yourself to improving the way you take care of yourself, you are likely to make remarkable progress in the way you feel – in a few months you may not even recognize yourself. However, do not underestimate the challenge of Self-Caring. How many times have you made New Year’s resolutions, and then failed to keep them? Using the professional services of a Life Coach or a Therapist to support your efforts is an intelligent way to secure your success.”

Carmel, California 18- HOW THE UNIVERSITY OF HEALING ARTS AND THE BRAIN OPTIMIZATION INSTITUTE BUSINESS MODEL ARE EASY ON THE PLANET The business model for the University of Healing Arts and the Brain Optimization Institute is extremely environmentally friendly. By participating online, our students do not need waste time and energy coming to our offices. Therefore, they do not spend in gasoline, contaminate and contribute to global warming. The same is valid for teachers. By broadcasting the classes from home they do not need to come to UHA/BOI offices either. An interesting example is the case of the founders of the University and the Institute. Their cars move so little that a tank of gasolline last them more than a month, and sometimes two months! ADDITIONALLY, both schools are very close to become completely paperless organizations

19- WHAT IS BRAIN NUTRITION AND WHY IS IT SO CRUCIAL? According to solid scientific research and clinical experience, anyone suffering from depression, anxiety, ADHD, substance abuse, chronic pain, or any form of mental or brain issues, can derive established benefit, by using a drug-free and affordable nutritional approach. The Brain Optimization Institute’s philosophy, based on the research and extensive clinical experience, is that nutrition should be an essential part of any serious attempt to improve mental health and brain functioning. We have designed a powerful and effective Brain Nutrition approach based on both the latest research and years of clinical experience. Unfortunately, many of our actions and habits can compromise their proper and balanced presence. Deficient diet, lack of physical exercise, job dissatisfaction, conflictive interpersonal relationships, heavy metals in the environment; can each, over time, create neurotransmitter deficiencies in the brain. Considering that the brain controls and affects every single aspect of our lives, nurturing and caring for our brain, as if our life depends upon it, is the epitome of good common sense.
-----------0----------- Yosemite, California 20- CAN I HELP OTHERS AND MYSELF THROUGH BRAIN NUTRITION? The Certification in Nutrition with Emphasis in Brain Nutrition Counseling offered at our Institute is the first of its kind in the US. Despite the voluminous research demonstrating that Brain Nutrition improves mental health and well-being, this powerful healing approach has been neglected, by mainstream medicine, and to a great extent, also by alternative medicine. If you are already a health care provider you can add this powerful modality to your repertoire of healing techniques. Our clinical experience proves that by helping the brain, you help the entire body and mind. If you wish to help yourself, relatives and friends or begin seeing clients, this exciting healing modality is worth serious consideration. Contact us at 818-508-1720 for information on the latest class schedule. Classes are held online and offline -----------0-----------

California 2002 You will learn about the most enlightened and up to date spiritual psychology paradigms, with special focus on non-duality -- a manifestation of the Truth that is truly relevant to today’s challenges. Although all serious spiritual teachings point to the same Truth, their effectiveness depends on whether the language used is practical, simple, and relevant to the current times and culture and devoid of paraphernalia -- myths, rigid beliefs, ceremonies, rituals, gurus, devotees, followers and initiations. This paraphernalia is a powerful distraction in the path towards Awareness and Oneness, and sooner or later becomes a source of significant and unnecessary suffering for the seeker. Additionally, we offer our students a highly personalized training and attention throughout the whole program. The course content is not a one-sided approach that boxes your creativity, thinking and spiritual development. On the contrary, this course is a presentation and application of a multi-paradigm approach to Spiritual Psychology Counseling, conducive to the expression of the student’s unique creativity, and intuition. Classes are held online and offline.

"The Brain Optimization Institute is part of the University of Healing Arts, and focuses predominantly on left brain, scientifically oriented courses, like the Certification and the Masters in Nutrition with emphasis in Brain Nutrition Counseling.
