Children are often overwhelmed by life circumstances that do not match their previous experiences. These circumstances are inevitable and include losses big and small. There is relief when someone can acknowledge a child, at the level of his/her neurological development and understanding. This requires “bridge building” and results in an advancement of “Intra-Personal” intelligence. This workshop will provide a glimpse of the young child’s world and specific methods of responding to the very young, even pre-verbal child. Some of these methods will come from the work of pioneers and their work with “Brain Gym” ©.
