Optimize Your Child’s Brain with Janet Doman

Описание: The human brain is a structure so amazing that a famous scientist once called it, “the most complex thing we have yet discovered in our universe.” My guest today, Janet Doman, has been a pioneer in unlocking what is possible for babies and children with the work she has done as Director of the Institutes for the Achievement of Human Potential since 1980. I’m grateful to be sitting down with Janet today, as I had the privilege of attending her workshop back in April where I learned techniques for significantly increasing my toddler’s intelligence.

I have a couple quick examples for you. First example: I quickly flip through a bunch of big cards with randomly placed dots on them while announcing how many dots on each card. This teaches my son the fact of a number like 18 or 26, rather than merely the symbol of it. Next step in this process will be to teach him equations using these cards. Second quick example: I flip through big cards with pictures of various insects, flowers, dinosaurs, and so forth. One category at a time. Very quickly. Always randomized, never in the same order. His brain is like a sponge, taking up all the new information. I have many, many dozens of these cards. Imagine a little toddler being able to name all the trees, flowers, and insects on a walk through the forest. I can’t even come close to doing that. But that’s what’s possible for children.

In this episode, Janet explains how babies and children learn, that their brains need a combination of stimulation and opportunity, the incredible adaptability of the brain, even in kids with brain injuries. The brain is actually the most fixable organ of the human body, and it grows by use. This is fascinating and immensely practical, especially if you’re a parent or if you at all interact with children. So without any further ado, on with the show!
