The course promotes efficient communication between the brain and the rest of the body, increasing play and creativity and alleviating stress as it enhances performance, all ingredients for better balance in your life. The success of Brain Gym can be attributed to its effective movements, and balances, as well as to its addressing the physical skills of learning.
Since the 1980s the field of Educational Kinesiology, the study of movement and its relationship to learning, has touched people of all ages and cultures. Brain Gym has been introduced in homes, classrooms, businesses, and places of learning in more than 80 countries on all seven continents with rapid and often dramatic improvement in reading, writing, language and numerical skills. Many others use the work to profoundly enhance the quality of their attention and concentration, memory and organizational skills, athletic performance, and more. The popularity of brain exercises today supports the positive and dynamic effects of stimulating brain movements.
The workshop also explores the five learning principles central to Brain Gym Work. They include:
1) Draw Out: Intelligence is Inborn
2) Focus: Attention Follows Intention
3) Notice: We Learn What We Actively Experience
4) Move to Learn: Growth Is a Search for Balance, Imbalance a Search for Growth
5) Interconnect: Each of Us Is Affected by Each Other
Come and engage with others who believe movement is the key to whole brain learning and overall better health and well being. For more information please contact Dr. Patty Shackleford at 352.475.3311 or drpatty@pkconceptsinc.com. (Register Now).

Basic Knowledge On Self Hypnosis
Hypnosis is a process of speaking to the subconscious mind rather than conscious mind, in order to achieve a goal or change their views on an idea.
This can be done by someone else or by ones self. The one done by ones self is called self hypnosis.
You can also do it by yourself. To start self hypnosis, understand its basic knowledge as mentioned below:
What is?
Self hypnosis is hypnosis done by a person to himself relaxing and inducing himself into a hypnotic state. By doing self hypnosis, the person can realign his subconscious thinking with what his conscious mind wants his subconscious to think.
The process can help improvement in various areas, including health.
The use
Hypnosis helps relaxing and calming. This makes hypnosis, particularly self hypnosis be chosen as a way of reducing stress.
The other benefits of self hypnosis are to help people quit smoking and losing weight.
Actually, other goals excluding health are also possible. Many people use it to do better at work or school.
Shortly, self hypnosis will give good result in a wide-ranging part of your life.
Concerns
There are many concerns on hypnosis. One of them is the fear of having the mind controlled, especially if you have seen a stage hypnotist act. Actually, this fear shows you that you can do self hypnosis easier. Because, you are in complete control of everything that happens.
The other one is the fear of being unable to wake up while being hypnotized. Actually, no need to concern about that. Remember that when you take a nap, even if you dont tell yourself to wake up, you still do naturally wake up. Also, youll still feel hungry, thirsty and tired. So, your body is still functioning. Your body would simply wake you up naturally.
To start
Simply get into a comfortable position. Bring yourself in a hypnotic state, one in which your brain is very focused and concentrated on one thought. While in the hypnotic state, make suggestions to yourself, as in your script. Wake yourself up, with a slow counting sign. In this step, it may be helpful to add in a bit of the script I will wake up and I will feel energized to work on my goal.
The magic words
Your script is the set of magic words you say to yourself during hypnosis. It is a lot better to repeat them at intervals throughout the day, just like a mantra.
A good script is something short. It should be short enough to be easily memorized. It has also to be positive. Dont use negative form. It has also to be as if youve already completed a part of your goal.
You dont actually need to believe your script. It is there to convince you of what you are saying. If youve already believed it, you wouldnt need to keep repeating it to yourself.
