Intro - The Healing Home – connecting the disconnected child


Intro - The Healing Home – connecting the disconnected child

Gary Moreau, based primarily on book “Disconnected Kids”, by Dr. Robert Melillo, 2009

Beginning a journey in using the mind-body connection to correctly diagnose our children, help them to understand their problems and to cope, and to get on the road of permanent healing.

THE PROBLEM
There is an alarming escalation of the number of children who cannot fully function in this world because they do not have fully functioning brains.  16 million children in 2009 had severe attention, behavioral and learning problems.  Includes ADHD, autism, Asperger’s, dyslexia, Tourette Syndrome, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, bipolar, etc.  In 1999: 1 in 10,000 children had autism, in 2009: 1 in 150 had autism.

THE NORM
The norm in our world is to view brain problem symptoms as separate problems.  No explainable root cause, and no cure.  All you can do is diagnose, label the child, medicate the symptoms and cope.  Drugs mask problems.  Some well-meaning teachers and therapists make problems worse.  Parents told symptoms could subside, or get worse.  Parents told to talk to school teacher, see psychologist, be loving, understanding, patient, and learn to cope. 

BRAIN BALANCE INTRO
Brain Balance Program has seen over 1000 children cured, and over 1000 medical professionals use part or all of this approach (2009).  This is all the “connected”, “disconnected”, “reconnected”, and “out of sync” folks.  Treatment is non-medical, correcting underlying problem.  Program has been adapted for parents and teachers to do themselves in the “Disconnected Kids” book.  Last month one thing we talked about was “Brain Gym” – this is a technique to cope and heal using the mind-body connection.
