My favorite part was watching the teacher give a balance to someone. I really felt like I learned a lot about how you communicate with the person you are working with; looking for connections, using words that make sense to them and making them feel heard and understood.
Brain Gym really opened my eyes to a different way of thinking and moving forward with the students. Letting them choose what they want to practice for helping themselves is totally revolutionary for me.
