Break free
to thrive.

Every genius: Curie. Einstein. Mandela. Mother Teresa. Jobs did it. 
They used their 3 Brains - Head, Heart, and Gut - to make the long-lasting achievements.
The beauty is that it's learnable and achievable for everyone.

I'm Christoffel Sneijders, an ICF Master Certified Coach, Clinical Hypnotherapist, and psychotherapist, and the person who decoded the 3 Brains.

30 years and more than 13,000 people I've worked with show what happens when the 3 Brains work as one team.

​

See which of your 3 Brains are most active and take the first step for mastering all 3 of them.

Let me introduce you to the 3 Brains,

or actually let them introduce themselves

3 minutes. Meet your Head, your Heart and your Gut.

You're not broken.
You're protected by an old system 

From a biology standpoint, you're not lazy, and no, you're not weak or lacking willpower.

You could be calm on the outside, running on one brain while the others have gone quiet.

I call it suppression, and sooner or later it will catch up.

Behind every pattern you can't think your way out of is a protector doing its oldest job: keeping you safe.
The pity is, it is using an outdated map

There are twelve of them; they are biology working as designed, and once you can name them, you can use their strengths instead of their pitfalls.

You know what to do.
You still don't do it.

That is normal for most of us.

Maybe you've read the books, watched all the YouTube videos, tried micro-habits, and can name what is holding you back (or at least think you do), yet it's still hard to keep the new habits and beliefs active. 

You probably are stuck in the gap between knowing and doing.

That gap is a 3 Brains problem.

Is the 3 Brains Training Worth It?
Pedro's Life-Changing Experience

WHO I AM

I decoded the 3 Brains.

Engineer turned executive coach. I started in Amsterdam, then at Capgemini, then spent ten years as a partner at Krauthammer International, until burnout. I left Krauthammer and emigrated to Australia to follow my passion and escape the rain. Seven months after I arrived, my marriage ended, and out of that came a deep passion to help people on a deeper level with the kind of serious issues that go beyond business coaching, so I trained as a therapist, set up my own school, and worked clinically in hypnotherapy, psychotherapy, NLP, and somatic work. I came back with 3 Brains' worth of evidence that mindset alone does not change people.

​

Since 1997, I've trained 13,000+ professionals and certified 350+ coaches across 44 countries. ICF Master Certified Coach, top 4% globally. Visiting Professor at Georgetown University Qatar. Author of four books on how Head, Heart, and Gut actually run a life.

How to master your 3 Brains Intelligence?

Whether you lead a company, coach others, or want to train in the method, there's a way in that fits.

WHAT I STAND FOR

Mindset is one-third of you; your heart and Gut hold the other two.

Burnout lives in the Heart, Trauma lives in the Gut, and we know them in our thoughts, but 
neither lives in your thoughts.

Most coaching, most therapy, most self-help, and even most of the science — has been looking for the answer in the Head.
That's why it can't find what's been there all along.

You can't think your way to alignment. 
3 Brains Intelligence is what fills the gap.
