How to Improve Brain Function & Intelligence – without trying

by: mesblog - April 25th, 2012   Filed under: Uncategorized 1 Comment

Is there a way to improve your intellect and your brain’s function without trying? Yes.

DE-STRESS because stress will make you forget things, not be able to use your intellect, and effect a whole plethora of body systems: digestion, immune response, circulation, hormone production, the nervous system etc.

So how can we conveniently relax & destress while improving intelligence, mental focus, memory, problem solving, and brain function  - at the same time? 

Sound Therapy – Listen for 30 minutes a day.  Now you can think clearer, plan better, and be at the top of your game. If you enjoy doing 2 things at once – exercise and listen at the same time. A 30 minute exercise session on the treadmill just flies by.

I listen to The Listening Program sound therapy every day – and as a business owner it helps me stay flexible and meet new challenges with energy, focus, and a positive attitude.

Who knew Coconut oil could improve your intellect, your movement, and your overall health?

Well, actually, Dr. Perlmutter talks a lot about nutrients we need for our brain’s success - so will your local organic grocery and many, many parents with children who struggle to learn academics.

I am so pleased food is becoming popular again. When attending my NLP training, I keenly remember Nikki stating, “It is an absolute crime that whole natural food in the United States costs more than processed junk.” We need real food! To Think, To Move, & To Be HEALTHY!Diet is the cornerstone of all good health – and that includes healthy brains. We don’t learn well on junk food.

So if you know children and adults who struggle to learn – try some coconut oil  and a good diet and see what happens.Watch the video below and share it with your loved ones – djb

Just How Do We Work?

by: mesblog - April 13th, 2012   Filed under: Parents, Uncategorized Add Comment

I often visit with parents about our services and I decided to put down as simply as possible – without all the jargon – how it is we can get the results we do.

How is it we can get results? Well, we use what works. That’s it. No cookie cutter programs. Everyone gets what he or she needs – and we have many programs to pull from.

How do we know what works? We observe, interview both parents and students, test, and measure – we call this an assessment.

Why do our programs work so well?  We approach the issues from 3 angles: the mind (using ideas); the brain (using mental exercises); and the body (using physical exercises) – and we use what will work for each unique student.

Who is the best fit for Meadowbrook Programs?  People who have checked primary causes – like diet, eyesight, hearing, allergies,  and sensory dysfunction areas first.

While we can help change occur when these other issues are in play – the changes are not as fast.

We like to make significant changes in a child or adult’s life within 1 year – and we an do it if the other issues are taken care of first.

When are we going to train others in what we do? Soon! :)

So what is it that is most important for prospective clients to know? Our job is to learn how you think, remember, process, and understand information. Once we know that, then we can help you learn academics more efficiently. Everyone has a key. By sharing what happens to you when you are trying to learn – you help us identify what key you need.

Healing at the Speed of Sound – Book Review

by: mesblog - March 30th, 2012   Filed under: Book Reviews, Parents, Professionals, Sound Therapy Add Comment

Most of our programs at Meadowbrook Educational Services incorporate sound therapy. After diet, we find it the most powerful way to help children and adults relax and learn. Many times people are interested in knowing more about sound therapy so I’m happy to share, “Healing at the Speed of Sound.”

Don Campbell and Alex Doman have outdone themselves writing this book. While written for the lay person, any professional sound provider will find it chalk full of nuggets. It is well sourced and documented, the references are 1/7th the size of the book – look no further for an excellent time saver when searching for  published peer review research. This is must-have book for any sound therapy professional.

I’ll post more details about this later. Slowly reading it :)

The book is found on amazon here:

Different Drummers – Book Review

by: mesblog - December 9th, 2011   Filed under: ADD/ADHD, Book Reviews Add Comment

In our search for readable books which show how children or
adults are not only perceived by others, but perceive themselves, we are
excited to showcase a local Spokane, WA author, Lyle Hatcher. Lyle’s story
shares the frustrations and joys of parenting a child with severe hyperactivity
and an inability to focus, in other words ADD/ADHD.

Why we recommend this book for parents,
teachers, or people with ADD/ADHD is because Lyle captures the views of all
involved and does a superb job of communicating his creative thought process
clearly. His story is touching and humorous.
If you know any parents with active children, this book, Different
Drummers, is sure to be a hit.
