EP. 232: You Can Change Your Brain and So Can Your Child with Neuroeducation Expert Barbara Arrowsmith-Young

I don't think I've broken my rule yet that all guests must be women who are either diagnosed or have a child who is diagnosed with ADHD, but I think that what our guest is going to talk about in this episode warrants me breaking my rule. Besides, as I told her during our interview, she has a lot of ADHD traits.   An innovator and author in the field of neuroeducation, Barbara Arrowsmith-Young’s work utilizing the principles of neuroplasticity is used worldwide to enhance cognitive functioning. Her work, begun in 1978, is recognized as one of the first examples of the practical application of neuroplasticity to address learning difficulties. Since then, its use has expanded to include those dealing with traumatic brain injury, addiction, cognitive decline with aging and those who want to enhance performance.    Barbara’s vision is to “put the Brain in the Education Equation” and she’s well on her way to making that happen, with her Arrowsmith Program already being used in over 100 schools around the world. I am so fascinated by Barbara and the work she’s done, and I'm confident that after our conversation, you will be too.  Resources: Website: Recent blog article: Arrowsmith Blog:  Free webinar series on the brain: Barbara Arrowsmith-Young – TEDx Presentation:   Book Resources (including The Woman Who Changed Her Brain, authored by: Barbara Arrowsmith-Young):  Learn more about your cognitive profile by completing the free Arrowsmith Cognitive Questionnaire: Facebook: LinkedIn: Instagram: @thearrowsmithprogram YouTube: Mastering your ADHD brain means learning how to trust yourself.
