What is Brain Gym?
How does Brain Gym work?
In nature, the brain's neural pathways & connections are developed through movement. Brain Gym works by promoting specific movement experiences which assist in facilitating optimal achievement of mental potential. All acts of speech, learning, vision & coordination are learned through a complex repertoire of movement. Brain Gym through its specific movement exercises program promotes the efficient communication amongst these many nerve cells & functional centres located throughout the brain's sensory motor system. Learning problems arise when communication between these centres, for example, when the eyes & ears are blocked. Brain Gym exercises stimulate the flow of information within the brain & sensory system freeing the innate ability to learn & function at top efficiency. The physiological basis of how & why Brain Gym works is expanded upon by Carla Hannaford PhD in her book called Smart Moves in the Brain Gym books section.
