I thank God for great minds like you,with "...a poet's heart, an explorer's mind, and an artist's soul,.." ♥ <br /><br />And I in Response:<br /><br />Harmony Heart, I see the 'resonance' given your chosen name. It is so very important for our children to know that there is purpose in their varied interests and passions. Sound nutrition, balanced energies, self awareness, intent and purpose, bring creative responses to all challenges and pursuits. Herein is the mission of APOGEE Learning... a service, a philosophy, a way to perceive, explore, discern, grow. Thank You for your interest.Rose Marie Raccioppihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12327247225256540829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3665406783335784500.post-77073810764309331482010-10-05T15:45:46.940-04:002010-10-05T15:45:46.940-04:00I in response to David:
David, That is precisely ...I in response to David:<br /><br />David, That is precisely my defined mission and life's work. First to have accepted my diversity, my desire to create, my fascination with the sky, with ambient sound, with art, with music, with everything that grows, lives, and in stillnes...s serves life itself. To learn but not to unlearn that inner knowing, to express in totality the gratitude, the celebration of breath itself. A teacher, a rebel in the system, an advocate, an activist, one who has chosen to claim life and reclaim Self. With an embracing reach, a poet's heart, an explorer's mind, and an artist's soul, I AM and hold to every child's right to BE.<br /><br />Thank You David for your endearing friendship, interest and support.Rose Marie Raccioppihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12327247225256540829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3665406783335784500.post-90804146468915637252010-10-05T15:43:57.373-04:002010-10-05T15:43:57.373-04:00David Burns posted the following response:

Many of my students, who are now adults, are entrepreneurs, movers and shakers in their own right. <br /><br />The initiation of the blog, APOGEE Learning, has been motivated by the need to bring greater awareness to parents, to liberate the dependency upon drugs and to be introduced to viable alternatives that have worked for scores of children and teens. <br /><br />A dialogue awaits - a listening heart to be reached.Rose Marie Raccioppihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12327247225256540829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3665406783335784500.post-12158423161351913562010-10-05T15:14:37.033-04:002010-10-05T15:14:37.033-04:00Lawrence Turner posted the following response:

It is not easy to disconnect children's wills, to disconnect them from their own experiences of the world in preparation for the lives of painful employment they will have to endure."- Derrick Jensen<br /><br />Children who's will can not be broken are diagnosed as having ADD (attention deficit disorder), ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) or ODD (oppositional defiant disorder).<br /><br />"The aim of public education is not to spread enlightenment at all,<br />it is simply to reduce as many individuals as possible to the same safe level, to breed and train a standardized citizenry, to put down dissent and originality." – H L. Mencken<br /><br />In 1890 Andrew Carnegie wrote a series of eleven essays called "The Gospel of Wealth", a treatise which essentially stated that free enterprise and capitalism no longer existed in the United States, because he and Rockefeller owned everything, including the government, and that competition was impossible unless they allowed it. Eventually, says Carnegie, the young children will become aware of this and form clandestine organizations to fight against it.<br /><br />Carnegie proposes that men of wealth form a synthetic free enterprise system based on cradle-to-grave schooling. The people who advanced through schooling would be given licenses to lead profitable lives. All licenses are tied to forms of schooling. This way, the entire economy can be controlled and people have a motivation for them to learn what you want them to learn. It also places the minds of all children in the hands of a few social engineers.<br /><br />"Public schools open to everyone were basically put into operation not as a benevolent gesture to spread knowledge, but as a system to inculcate patriotism, national values, and fill the job gaps in our social structure, keeping the economic network running as smoothly as possible. That is why it was made compulsory." -Lew Paz"Rose Marie Raccioppihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12327247225256540829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3665406783335784500.post-7309427002408609852010-09-24T14:39:07.275-04:002010-09-24T14:39:07.275-04:00Thank You for the calls and inquiries.

From relief from headache and inner tension, to the absence of leg pain, to the reported sense of 'feeling real balance,' to a renewed readiness to work toward resolve of a personal issue, to gratitude for what was considered, 'a magical transformation.'Rose Marie Raccioppihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12327247225256540829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3665406783335784500.post-86612089544193633942010-09-16T18:54:04.136-04:002010-09-16T18:54:04.136-04:00Yes, Trisha, this very week results with a 12 year...Yes, Trisha, this very week results with a 12 year old and an adult with ADHD were astounding.
