LEAP Course Descriptions

wdt_ID Course Code Course Name Course Overview Course Duration
1 BI 1 Brain Integration 1 A workshop introducing the overall structure and function of the brain and major cortical integration as well as the major commissures of the brain and the integrative pathways necessary to maintain Brain Integration, along with Acupressure Formatting to access stress in these structures and balance their function. BI 1 also introduces the concept of Survival Switching and Deep Survival Switching and their relationship to the function of the Amygdala that controls our Fight or Flight Reactions along with the Acupressure Formatting to access stress and balance the factors underlying this Survival Switching. Indeed, many of the problems we find difficult to resolve in our lives, including Learning Problems, are a direct result of this Survival Switching. This workshop also introduces the LEAP® Model of Learning why we have Gestalt and Logic “Lead” functions not Right and Left Brains. 5 days.
2 BI 1b Brain Integration Glial Cells Includes forming the Blood Brain Barrier, scarring, environmental toxins, memory, brain immune system, brain environmental regulation, brain tumors and imbalances in the brain, cerebral spinal fluid production/distribution, cerebral spinal fluid brain barrier, transduction of mental decisions into neuronal action, nerve repair and wound healing, myelination in the Peripheral and Central Nervous Systems, hormone effects, emotional stress effects on Glial Cell Neurotransmission, and brain synchrony. 3 days.
3 BI 2 Brain Integration 2 This course delves deeply into the structure and function of the Brainstem and the primary systems underlying our physiological, psychological and behavioral function. It is these powerful brainstem systems that provide for our physiological homeostasis, physical and psycho-emotional survival, allow us to filter the relevant data from the sea of incoming sensory sensations swamping our nervous system, maintain our orientation in space, and control our posture and movement. Each system is covered in-depth and how each system relates to our physical, emotional and mental performance. You are also introduced to the Emotional and Mental Modulatory Circuits of the Cerebellum that modify your behavior in survival and socially oriented ways when not disrupted by various stressors. Again, there s in-depth Acupressure Formatting to access stress and balance these important basal brain functions so important for our survival and learning. 6 days.
4 BI 3 Brain Integration 3 The neurology and function of the auditory and visual systems is covered in-depth including the neurology of hearing and vision. Auditory integration & pathways, visual integration & pathways, control of eye movement,, internal integration of sight & sound, visual & cerebellar integration of eye-hand coordination, physical body integration, brain integration exercises, and brain integration correction protocols. 6 days.
5 BI 4 Brain Integration 4 Covers the exciting and amazing memory systems of the brain. The neurology and function of all aspects of the Explicit or Conscious Memory System including the Reward and Punishment systems are covered in-depth. BI 4 also introduces a single Brain Integration Correction Protocol, allowing rapid correction of many aspects of learning and memory problems. Anatomy & physiology of the memory systems, hippocampus (reward & punishment / auditory short term memory / the senses), parahippocampus and long term memory, working memory, and review of brain anatomy and physiology 6 days.
6 BI 6 Brain Integration 6 Provides an in-depth understanding of the major Environmental Factors that may disrupt integrated brain function. The theory behind each factor and how and why they affect brain function and the Acupressure Formatting to access stress and balance each of these factors is provided. Environmental factors and stress related to hydration, electromagnetic radiation, allergies, sensitivities / intolerances, toxins / vaccinations; diet and nutrition to support optimum brain integration, geopathic stress and brain integration; candida and other parasites. 4 days.
7 BI 5 Brain Integration 5 Core concepts of the cognitive functions underlying academic performance, understanding perceptual-motor development, review of anatomy & physiology of memory systems, assessing and correcting auditory & short-term memory / visual short-term memory / visuospatial skills alphabet & numbers / writing, assessing and correcting reading as it relates to scotopic sensitivity / eusophoria / colored gel procedure / comprehension, assessing and correcting spelling / mathematics, and defusing negative attitudes affecting performance, learning, self-confidence, and self-esteem 6 days.
