A Powerful Ritalin Free Treatment for ADHD and ADD!
Why has ADHD and ADD become a major classroom issue in the last 25 years or so? Never before have so many millions of children been diagnosed & reflexively placed on Ritalin, an addictive amphetamine drug. Why? Are possible reasons such as childhood vaccine reagents or some other unknown causes explain the recent explosion in these diagnosis? More than likely, an major but unrecognized issue lies in the gross neglect of good old fashioned penmanship training. Handwriting used to be stressed for several years, not a few weeks as is more common today. Young brains have been gravely deprived of essential regulated stimulation that trains the brain to pay attention and develop impulse control too!
In either case, from you & your child's perspective, if your child can't control his/her impulses, they can't effectively learn or pay attention. Without remediation, it only get worse. The video below reveals why multi-sensory handwriting is a safe, simple but very powerful alternative. It literally trains the brain to pay attention without medicating children with drugs such as Ritalin.
An amazingly simple but very powerful method, multi-sensory handwriting, can physically retrain the brain so ADD ADHD children can gain impulse control. Best of all, it avoids the need for drugs like Ritalin, Adderal or Concerta which have potential serious side effects.
1. Until a child gains impulse control which dampens the emotional brain, the left brain can't pay attention.
2. The regulated stimulation literally changes the brain by developing impulse control and the attention span without use of Ritalin or other ADHD drugs.
4. Just a few minutes of daily practice provides a powerful Ritalin-alternative that retrains the brain by dampening the emotional brain's emotionally driven behaviors, i.e., impulse control!
5. Adding therapeutic music to the handwriting process creates the magic in the process! It's a win/win situation for students, parents, teachers and society too.
Why can such a remarkably simple but powerful system work without Ritalin?
Massive research has found that the brain is the only organ in the body that sculpts itself from environmental experience--the regulated stimulation inherent in handwriting's movement is key!
In "A User's Guide to the Brain, John Ratey, M.D., claims, "Mounting evidence shows that movement is crucial to every other brain function, including memory, emotion, language and learning. Our "higher" brain functions have evolved from movement and still depend on it." ADD and ADHD's impulsive behaviors are emotionally driven.
Because it involves the hand, nothing else done in the classroom can begin to compare with the massive regulated stimulation created by handwriting's rhythmic, repetitive manipulation of the thumb and fingers in its impact on the young brain over time.
Amazingly moldable, young brains require regulated stimulation, i.e., neural activity. The activity integrates the thinking brain with the lower emotionally influenced areas. The stimulation over time is an essential key in creating the mind--"the mind is what the brain does! The process enables the left and right brain to "shake hands" and cooperate rather than letting the right brain's emotionally influenced behaviors dominate.
Research reveals that poor handwriting handicaps the child. It interferes with learning! Handwriting's regulated stimulation can remedy that by developing impulse control.
Multi-sensory handwriting's powerful regulated stimulationachieves what Ritalin can't begin to do! The movement primes the brain for the learning process while strengthening it for the long term. As it avoids the need for Ritalin-type drug, it's a natural remedy for ADD and ADHD children!
Multi-sensory Handwriting Fortifies The Child's ADHD's Brain!
R. Feuerstein, M.D., has a vital solution to resolving learning issues! He claims,"You can either dilute the learning or fortify the learner!"
Multi-sensory handwriting fortifies the brain as nothing else can! Ritalin can't achieve that goal on the long term! Just 10-15 minutes a day can "retrain the brain" so a child can control his/her ADHD's impulsive behavior and learn to pay attention. Ritalin merely masks the symptoms and classroom behaviors of ADD ADHD kids. It cannot eliminate the side effect of ADD and ADHD. While children love to do the exercises, therapeutic music calms the brain by dampening impulse control.
Daniel Goleman, Ph.D.,says, "There is no psychological skill more fundamental than impulse control. It's the root of all emotional self-control. "While Ritalin can calm the symptoms of stress and anxiety of ADHD on a short term basis, it can't eliminate ADHD's symptoms on the long term as multi-sensory handwriting does. Lack of impulse control drives a ADHD child's behavior.
Research reveals that neglecting penmanship gravely deprives the brain of essential regulated stimulation that primes it for the learning process while absolutely building impulse control to quell ADHD behaviors and dramatically deepen attention spans. Regulated stimulation profoundly influences those with ADHD, ADD, learning disabilities, autism, Aspergers, and dyslexia, etc.--all without resorting to Ritalin or Adderall.
Public School system's neglect of stressing good old fashioned penmanship has been missing in action for decades. Tossed out of the curriculum decades ago, emphasis on the process has dwindled from a few years to a scant few weeks. Yet, satisfied parent testimonials here dominantly reflect that nothing else tried influenced the learning process and developed impulse control like these handwriting exercises did!
In just 10-15 minutes a day parents can help "retrain" their child's brain to develop impulse control that drives behavior in the comfort of their home. Ritalin and other ADHD medications simply cover up the symptoms- it can't physically change or stabilize the brain.
Don't Let Your Child Fall Through the Cracks!
Handwriting's influence on the brain is irreplaceable. It integrates the upper brain with the lower levels! Some 30 years of research Dr. Rudolph Pophal, a German neurologist, determined that handwriting has a physiological/psychological link in the brain. Translated, this means that the neurological activity involved in producing handwriting influences individual psychology, i.e., impulse control. It also ensures that the transition from the right brain to the left brain occurs so learning to read is easily gained.
Sadly, the public school system grossly has neglected penmanship for decades even though that failure to develop handwriting skill dramatically handicaps the child's learning process. Mel Levine, M.D., states, "If a child fails to develop basic skills, he/she will be unable to write with the speed and fluency required to excel as these demands increase. If a child struggles with a writing issue, the writing process itself interferes with learning!"
Therapeutic Music is the Magic in the Process
This highly effective, innovative program combines handwriting movement exercises with therapeutic music. Adding therapeutic music to movement is a long term gift to learning as it "entrains" the brain's rhythm and pulls it into the music's rhythm. The activity calms the brain and begins to stabilize how it's firing, or, misfiring!
Parents are delighted in avoiding Ritalin's side effects and/ or abuse! Just a few minutes of daily practice provides a powerful Ritalin alternative--a win/win situation for students, parents, teachers and society on the long term. A Ritalin free alternative for ADHD/ADD drugs unlike any other, but with no danger of side effects or abuse!
Using Movement Instead of Ritalin Means No More ADHD and ADD Drugs!
Fifty years ago, German neurologist Rudolph Pophal determined that handwriting has a physiological/psychological link in the brain. He found that the intense neural activity involved in producing handwriting inherently influences individual psychology, i.e., impulse control, i.e, self-control.
His research & my satisfied customer testimonials reflect early handwriting intervention is key to counteract TV's negative impact on the brain. As a visual medium, TV appeals to the right brain's visual orientation. Excessive TV can delay a child in achieving developmental readiness, a natural shift from the right brain to the left. This essential shift reveals that a child is ready to learn the 3Rs- reading, 'riting, and arithmetic. Using age-appropriate exercises for preschoolers and kindergartners can counteract that delay so the child doesn't lag behind by ensuring that impulse control is gained and the attention span is developed. This is a natural remedy for ADHD and ADD children--without resorting to Ritalin, Adderal, or Concerta.
Brain compatible learning research supports using multi-sensory handwriting exercises in special ed classrooms, primary and elementary classrooms. All children, especially those with learning disabilities, ADHD, ADD, autism, etc., benefit greatly from the Ritalin alternative that movement and therapeutic music offers. Society benefits by gaining more self-controlled, productive citizens.
