354. Awaken the Brain with Anat Baniel

It's amazing how the brain works. It's like a sponge; it can learn everything when healthy and not traumatized. But how about children with special needs or those people who are suffering from trauma, pain, and injury? How can they have the breakthrough to do the "impossible"? Anat Baniel is back! She was my guest (episode 198) on this show three years ago, and she's back to share her miraculous stories of people under her care. Anat is a trained clinical psychologist, dancer, and close professional associate of Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais for over a decade. She is also the founder of Anat Baniel Method® NeuroMovement®, a scientifically based methodology with practical tools for waking up the brain, and the author of the bestselling books, Move Into Life and Kids Beyond Limits. In this episode, Anat shares how she was introduced to the study of brains that allowed her to develop Anat Baniel Method® NeuroMovement®. She talks about some amazing case studies of her clients that showed how miracles can happen everyday. She also shares her insights on why humans develop much slower than any animals on this planet and why slowing down helps babies have optimal development. Tune in!
