Your Summer of Goals:
Want to know how to return in the Fall and NOT BE FURIOUS at yourself? Have your best break ever! Most teachers in the US list that they have 3 goals every Summer
- Organize or clean something: Hilarious
- Improve physical health: usually weight loss
- New experience: like plan a trip or a novel experience
Maybe check out the Willpower and the Brain class for ideas of strategies to engage in your curriculum while meeting personal goals.
Maybe check out the Fitness and the Brain class for research and ideas to bring to your class and IMPROVE DISCIPLINE!
Maybe Synchronicity and the Brain is a class that drives you toward a novel experience (and meaning in your life) when you are looking for a meaningful summer.
Email me and I'll send a code for a free Audible. Don't forget, these activities improve habits, drive healthy behavior, and regrow DNA and that repairs stress and counters aging.

Dog Danger or Bright Light?
| | |
Most Dogs Don't Bite
In fact, animals have a profound impact on our health.
Only 2 minutes of petting lowers cortisol, increases reward hormones (oxytocin, dopamine, serotonin, endorphins and more.)
When subjects are NEAR an animal, they increase healing.
Animals decrease anxiety and depression...fast.
Animals increase reading rates quickly!
Animals increase academic performance and standardized test scores.
Would you believe that a bearded dragon increased academic performance on standardized tests? Yep, it's true. The presence of a reptile lowered anxiety (self-reported scores) by almost 30%, which resulted in the increased performance.
The Animal Assisted Learning class is packed full of research on the effects of animals on cognition, healing and even prosocial behaviors. That means, people are nicer to each other with an animal close by. Watching a video, looking at a pic is therapeutic and hijacks our attention! That is our teaching AID!!!
Class is coming July 12th

Bright Light is the Most Dangerous
Staring into MAN-MADE LIGHT such as a computer screen or into your cell phone lowers your melatonin ...doing this within 3 or 4 hours of sleep interferes with falling into sleep or staying asleep through the night. Possibly the most dangerous thing a person can do is get less than 8 hours.
Less than 8 hours:
Increased Alzheimer's, Parkinson's
Depression, Anxiety, Substance Use, Low self-discipline, Increased Type 2 Diabetes, More Belly Fat, Huge Rude Behaviors and many more. I'll teach you all of it in the 5 Things for Mental Health. I'll train you to sleep so you never get less than 8 again,
Mental Health is coming June 21st.

- Every single slide features research to support and I narrate to explain all of the evidence to support the strategies.
- Every class topic is designed to enhance relationships in class, at work and home. I didn't mean to create classes that directly impact YOUR personal quality of life, but years of feedback from clients shocked me.
- Classes are video based, not reading additional material with worksheets
- Chose additional application hours: you'll get many ideas for activities (for example, something you have never done and explain how you can use it with students). Individualized class coursework allows you to meet your "summer goals" while building plans and activities for next year.

Hollywood and the Brain: Using games and movies increases learning time exponentially! What if educators and parents steal the premise to motivate and educate using the games and movies they are already consuming. One teacher integrated and found 100% of his males hit grade level in literacy.
In the Zone: A few nights ago, the Celtics missed missed 45 3-pointers. "They just don't have the talent." FALSE
They failed to perform under pressure. You will learn what triggers "choke" in the brain and the ways to protect so that you and your students get it right when it matters.
Fitness and the Brain: Increased physical activity allows for the brain to pay attention, learn faster, and think under less than optimal circumstances. They don't have to be fit, but you have to integrate moves to your class AND have the evidence to support.
Homework and the Brain: Research used to support 10 minutes per grade level is fabricated. Harris Cooper found no such correlation. Want to learn the problems traditional homework causes? I hope so, and I'll offer 10 things that actually do offer benefit.
Synchronicity: Bring Balance Back This is by far the favorite class (that feedback is when it is offered in-person). You will learn 6 daily rituals that will add time back into your life, while increasing your efficiency.
Memory and the Brain (New, Includes incredible learning tricks that will boost you immediately) The concepts, foods, activities, and more are so highly effective you have to see it to believe it. In every class, we measure the amount of improvement, and it has NEVER been less than a 50% increase. I guarantee this.

Music and the Brain: Effects of playing or listening on neural pathways in the brain (the same neurons as language)
Motivation:3 secrets for males and females (class is not on gender) on life long differences and the effects on relationships, how to drive learning, and mental health.
Males and Female Differences, the Brain (aka Gender and the Brain) Once you understand the behavioral choices, you can modify for greatest impact. Small changes can close the literacy, grade, and behavior gap.
Essentials for Learning: Straight forward biology about how our daily life impacts the brain and more than 30 methods to enhance health and learning.
Willpower and the Brain: Incredible science that shows how tiny changes can increase our self-discipline and help meet our goals now and dictate future success.
Top Ten Things (only one credit but you get so many good topics): You will get the intro to a variety of science inspired behaviors that can change your life right away. Listening to a song, focusing on the exhale, standing on one foot, and more ideas that will reset you.
Relationships and the Brain: What happens when students perceive their teacher as support is nothing short of magic. If a student goes more than 2 years without feeling "connected" to a teacher, the chance of failure to graduate more than quadruple. Learn what happens in your brain and strategies to support.
