What Is Right Brain Education?


Right brain education is about developing children to have more sensitivity, imagination and creativity, other than academic achievements alone. Its education principles are based upon the sense of one-ness, cooperation and love. As for the left brain-centered education, it focus is on confrontation and competition. According to Professor Shichida (f ounder of the "Shichida Method") every child between the ages of zero to three years old, is believed to be a genius. This is because, the child is able to absorb or accept information at an amazing rate. When you want to raise your children differently and effectively, you must understand how the infant's brain works between ages zero to three years old. The most important thing in the beginning of a newborn childs education is language, especially vocabulary. The use of flash cards as a tool is very important. Flash the cards to your child at a fast speed and they will learn with lightning speed. The right brain functions at a high speed, where else the left brain function at a low speed. Both sides of the brain function very differently. So when you input a lot of inf ormation at a very f ast speed, that is when you activate the right brain. In Shichida classes, flash cards are not only used as tools. There are other activities such as ESP games, image eye play, eye exercises, memory games, picture flash cards, singing and dancing, story books, playing cards and others are used.

Right Brain Schools


The three most popular and established right brain schools are Glenn Doman, Shichida Method and Heguru. Glenn Doman is the pioneer in the right brain education. He is the founder of The Institutes for the Achievement of Human Potential and began pioneering the field of child brain development since 1940. He and the institute are known for their pioneering work with braininjured children and their early development for well children. Glenn has authored a lot of books and materials that show parents how to tutor their babies at home. Shichida Method schools was founded in Oct 1978 are also in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Taiwan, Australia and Unites States. Classes that are conducted by them are for the age of four months to six years. Shichida currently have more than 400 schools in Japan. Heguru school or HEGL Inc was founded in July 1989 in Japan. They are at the moment in Japan and in Malaysia. They are the biggest right brain development school in Japan, with more than 1,200 students in Tokyo itself. In July 1997, Heguru founded the Undulate Speed Reading or Wave Speed Reading. You can send your child to this school from the age of four months to twelve years.

How To Teach Your Child?


Before you start teaching you child, the most important thing in right brain education is relationship between you and your child. So, it is important how you view your child. The child will grow according to they are being viewed or image portrayed by their parent or teacher. For example, when a child makes a mistake, the parent should never think or say words like You are an idiot or When this child grows up he/she will not be successful etc. The child will be what you think and say of him/her.

6 Points On How To View Your Child


1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Look at the strong points and potential Dont be a perfectionist Dont compare! Every child has different strength Dont f ocus on academic achievement Learn to accept your child as he/she is Dont expect immediate results

Now let's take a look at what is being taught in right brain schools. Some of the terms I use will be similar to the mention established schools. RIGHT BRAIN EDUCATION WORKSHOP

Alpha Music
The purpose of Alpha music is to get your child in to state of relaxation mode. The right brain functions best at the alpha wave, semiconscious, in a deep relaxed state. There are a few ways you can get do that, 1. Taking deep breath and Make energy ball. This method is used by Shichida Method and/or 2. Play Alpha music

Alpha music is played as instrumental background music f or relaxation and its ideal to be played bef ore or when your child is learning.

Energy Ball Exercises


I would also highly recommend that you do Shichida Method's Make energy ball exercise to incorporate with music. The energy ball exercise is to mentally prepare your child bef ore you teach your child. The purpose of energy ball is to get your child to focus their mental energy. There are 2 videos you should take a look at. The first video shows you how the energy ball exercise is done, WatchShichidaEnergyBallExerciseonyoutube The second video shows the adult version. The video shows how the Power of Intention can do. Which is the same as what energy ball exercise can do. WatchSpoonBending"PowerofIntention"onyoutube It may not seem to have any logic doing this exercise, but bear in mind this exercise is specially developed by Shichida. RIGHT BRAIN EDUCATION WORKSHOP

It is compulsory that this exercise is done in Shichida classes.

Eye Exercise
It is an exercise to train the eye muscles to scan up and down, left and right and all sorts of direction. This is to prepare your child f or photographic memory exercises and speed reading.

For example, in (figure 1), you can use your finger to point or hold a little toy and move according to the lines given and get your child to use his/her eyes to follow the your finger or toy.

Image Training
The word image means visualization or mental picture. The training is meant to teach your child (at any age) to learn how to be imaginative or to create images. This training is the foundation of all the other image exercises. If your child is less than 3 years old, you can guide your child to do this. And if your child is 3 years and above, they can image themselves.

To start with these exercises you must 1. 2. Create a relaxing environment, away from distractions Get your child to take a deep breath in and out (3 times)

3. Then you can start with the exercises. Imagine you can see a red ball, if you can, put up your hand. OK, put your hand down. Now, can you see a green ball, if you can, put up your hand. Great, put your hand down now. 4. Then, can you see the door to your bedroom. Once you see it, put up your hand. OK, the open the door and got to your room. 5. Now, when I count 3,2,1 you turn off everything and you are back in your class. 6. 3,2,1. You may open your eyes. Welcome back!

There are many other creative ways you can do this exercises, like getting your child to visualize stories from story books as you read to them. Right brain education teaches your child to see words, pictures and numbers as images.

Flash Cards
w w w. r i g h t b r a i n e du c a ti o n s h o p . c o m P a g e 10

RIGHT BRAIN EDUCATION WORKSHOP

In "Shichida Method", they believe flashing cards to children is not only to give knowledge to them but there are other purposes -

To activate the right brain Cards need to be flashed at high speed. It is important because it gives your child instant memory. Normally every child will learn with his left brain, but when information is given at high speed, the right brain's memory is activated and it will grow.

The right brain and left brain will be connected When flashing cards, you will show the pictures and at the same time say the words on the cards. The images or pictures will be processed by the right brain. The words or language are processed by the left brain. As a result, the child will learn new words through the activation of the left brain. After knowing the purpose, you also must know how to flash the cards. When you flash to your child, try to flash less than one second per card or as fast as you can. Flash as many as you can per session, and do it two to three times per day. You can start with at least 100 cards in the first month and gradually increase up to 1000 cards. Make sure you have as much variety of as possible. Do not repeat the same set of cards in one sitting. Just in case your child cannot sit through the session, you can take a short break and then continue flashing.

Mandala
w w w. r i g h t b r a i n e du c a ti o n s h o p . c o m P a g e 12

RIGHT BRAIN EDUCATION WORKSHOP

Mandala is translated as a circle in a classical Indian language of Sanskrit. It's not just a circle or a basic shape, but it means completeness, and can be seen as a model for the organizational design of life--a universal chart that reminds us of our connection to the infinite which spread out both beyond and within our bodies and minds. Mandala are used as part of right brain education exercises by Shichida Method, Heguru and other right brain schools. These exercises are used as part of Photographic Memory exercises. It is to help your child to remember the colors on the Mandala pictures when the pictures are flashed within 5 seconds.

How to use the Mandala pictures? First, what you need is two pictures of Mandala. One is colored and the other is outlined. 1. You first, get your child to relax by taking a few deep breath and play some alpha music. 2. Flash color Mandala pictures around 5 seconds or less. 3. Then ask your child to close his/her eyes and you say "*Do you see color image with your super eye?" 4. If "Yes", you can ask your child to draw. Give your child the outlined Mandala picture and color pencils. Just ask your child to draw a stroke of color in each area corresponding to the image he captured. It is important to PRACTICE many times in order to succeed. RIGHT BRAIN EDUCATION WORKSHOP

You must flash f ast, because the right brain takes in the entire image at a glance and f orms an 'after image' that the child sees when he closes his eyes. This capability to see and retain the 'after image' will improve when practiced over time. At the beginning your child may say "Mommy, I can't see anything!" Be patient. According to Prof Shichida, the 'after image' will retain for 5 seconds or less initially and gradually build up to 10 seconds or more. When the 'after image' is retained into a child's mind for more than a minute, even after seeing an object for only a second, he is said to have developed 'Photographic Memory'.

Linking Story
The purpose is to train the child to memorize a group of pictures in sequence. For example, when your child look at a chart full of pictures, in order to memorize, he or she will take the first image and link to the other images with a story. In this exercise, the story used to link the images does not make sense and has no logic. Since the story has no logic, the left side brain closes. This is because the left side brain functions based on logic. For example, if the first picture is a cow and the second is car. The story could begin with: The COW drove a CAR that look like a BIRD Once your child memorizes at least 50 pictures, he or she will be able to memorize the pictures in sequence at one glance without the help of words or story.

Speed Reading
There are two types of speed reading. Right-Brain and Left-Brain speed reading. For left brain speed reading, students are train to read the words as fast as they can. For right brain speed reading, students are firstly train to see images (i.e. Words, pictures, shapes, patterns). They will be able to read and understand at the same time. So, by seeing the words as images, makes it possible to read and learn at a super fast speed. This is because there is no need to read and understand the word. For your child to succeed in speed reading, you must incorporate with other right brain training like flash cards, photographic memory, Mandala and others.

RIGHT BRAIN EDUCATION WORKSHOP

Is a form of training where your child is trained in their brains ability to capture and hold an image in the mind exactly as it is in the environment. For example, you can take an orange colored card with a blue circle, triangle or square. And get your child to stare at the card for about 30 seconds, then close his eyes. What he or she will see is an after image. Your child will see the colors in reverse. The blue circle will be orange and the card will be blue color. Practice this everyday and eventually your child will see the card as the same color. You need a lot of practice! The aim of this training is to develop visualization by allowing the mind to develop clear mental images ,opening the subconscious of the right brain (creativity, intuition and memory).

Classes conducted by Shichida Method, Heguru, and other right brain schools are normally held once a week. And what is being taught in the classes, may vary from different schools or country. Most importantly is, parents plays the biggest part in right brain education, or you could say education in general. What can you do as a parent? You may be feel that training your child is beyond your capability. You may believe that some special knowledge or skill is involved. Perhaps you feel that because you are not trained as a teacher or have a lot of education, you should leave it to the professionals. I am here to tell you to relax, because it does not require any special skills you don't already have and a certificate or higher "education" and does not guarantee any success. You already have the most important attribute to teach your child : your love f or your children and your dedication to helping them live happy, productive lives. To teach your child, make sure 1. Practice, practice, practice 2. Variations (f or example, flash a variety of flash cards and not always the same cards.) 3. Your child is relaxed. You can put some Alpha music to get your child calm down. RIGHT BRAIN EDUCATION WORKSHOP

4. You are in a positive mood. Especially when your child is very young they can feel your energy .
