Join us in this episode with Jan Blair, a registered homeopath and coach, as we explore the challenges and solutions surrounding Irlen syndrome, a visual processing condition that significantly impacts learning and reading abilities. Jan shares her personal story, including how a chance discovery of Irlen syndrome helped her son overcome his reading struggles. We delve into the visual distortions associated with the condition, such as words blurring or moving, and how these issues often go undiagnosed or misdiagnosed. Jan also discusses the use of colored overlays and lenses as effective tools for managing Irlen syndrome, along with the potential role of homeopathic remedies in supporting those affected.

About my Guest:

Jeanette "Jan" Blair is a second-generation homeopath, coach, supervisor, remedial massage therapist, NLP practitioner, and Irlen assessor. Growing up with a homeopath mother, Jan was immersed in holistic healing from a young age, though she initially pursued a degree in languages and a career in the computer industry. It wasn’t until she found herself naturally advising clients on remedies like Arnica that her passion for homeopathy was reignited. At 28, she returned to university to study homeopathy, eventually building a successful practice. 

Her personal journey with Irlen Syndrome began when her son struggled with reading and was diagnosed with visual processing issues. Now, with nearly 20 years of experience in homeopathy, Jan helps children and adults overcome challenges like Irlen Syndrome and continues to inspire others with her deep commitment to holistic well-being.
