August 12, 2019 19:00 - 32 minutes - 22.7 MB

The brain is either in a learning mode—the Learning Switch is on—or not. Repetition, drills, and everyday stresses all tend to turn the Learning Switch off.

June 10, 2019 19:00 - 35 minutes - 16.3 MB

May 21, 2019 20:00 - 32 minutes - 14.8 MB

Movement Is the Language of the Brain: Harnessing the Power of Positive Brain Change

April 08, 2019 07:00 - 1 hour - 29.8 MB

We now know the enormous importance of the brain in everything we do. The good news is that the brain is “plastic,” meaning that the brain changes in response to its experiences.

March 12, 2019 07:00 - 1 hour - 29.9 MB

The most normal and common response to a child having a challenge or limitation is to try and “fix” the child.

In this podcast, Anat Baniel and Neil Sharp discuss: the ways in which adults try to “fix” children with special needs what it looks like when you are trying to “fix” and how to choose differently the bra...
