The Power of Human Emotions - The Language of Intent



Emotional feelings toward learning, toward pursuit of understanding, toward knowledge of self, are to be considered in ourselves as learners. As parents, as educators, as mentors, as guides, our appreciation of emotion as a driving force, as a well spring within the conscious and subconscious mind, will facilitate a viable accord within ourselves and those we are destined to teach. There is an emergent science that has come to more fully embrace the process and the power of emotion driven energies. This presentation by Gregg Braden brings us closer to understanding the interrelationship of emotion and the body - mind connections. These are the very considerations taken into account, when implementing an individualized APOGEE Achiever ™ Program Plan.

Russian DNA Discoveries - and the APOGEE Learning™ Paradigm


* http://otherworldradio.ning.com/forum/topics/russian-dna-discoveries-mind


When reading and upon completion of these reported findings related to DNA discoveries, I found great relevance to both the development and the successful application of 'sound' modalities that define APOGEE Acu-Tone™. http://www.acu-tone.com See also: http://www.apogeelearning.com/acutone/sound.asp Since 1983, APOGEE Learning™ has offered supports to children and adults across the age span to more effectively manage every day stress and to develop orientations and strategies that bring about effective learning, mastery, and well being. I have taken excerpts from the article, "Russian DNA Discoveries," that are particularly related to my own findings and experience, and encourage all to avail themselves of the full text posted at the above provided link.

Excerpts:

"Fifty percent of children will become a problem as soon as they go to school, since the system lumps everyone together and demands adjustment. But the individuality of today's children is so strong that they refuse this adjustment and resist giving up their idiosyncrasies in the most diverse ways.

At the same time more and more clairvoyant children are born. Something in those children is striving more towards the group consciousness of the new kind, and it can no longer be suppressed." *

Since my early teaching days that date back to the 60's, I have recognized the 'different learner,' one inherently aware, sensitive to all aspects of the immediate environment, and deeply responsive to teachings and supports respectful of their learning styles, interests, motivations and their particular world view. These particular aspects of the 'different learner' are so very well expressed by this young man: Indigo Child's Views on How to Save the World - http://apogeelearning.blogspot.com/2011/02/indigo-childs-views-on-how-to-save.html

Rafael Casal - A.D.D. @ Brave New Voices - Spider Man - A Young Persona

Words to engage our understanding. Words to spark our awareness. What be the price paid for the thwarting of creativity, the constraining of a young child's quest for exploration, discovery and creation? Hearken well to this young poet's resounding plea. Yes, a three year old, Spider Man, be his young persona. He holds yet to his soaring spirit, to the thrill of his own sensibilities, to the possibilities not yet known.
