Is It ADHD or Auditory Processing? Brain Training Secrets


Listen Later

Are you tired of applying band aid solutions to your child's learning struggles? Discover how brain training can address the root causes of ADHD, auditory processing issues, and cognitive gaps to unlock your child's full potential.


In this episode of the Homeschool Your Kids podcast, host Jae sits down with Deana Smith, the Executive Director of Learning RX Jacksonville Beach. Deana shares her powerful journey from being an educator to a brain training advocate after discovering how neuroplasticity transformed her own sons life. Unlike traditional tutoring, brain training focuses on the seven core cognitive skills including memory, attention, and processing speed to create lasting changes in how the brain functions.


Deana dives deep into the science of functional neurology and explains why brain health today is where heart health was in the 1950s. The conversation covers essential topics for every parent, such as the impact of screen time on dopamine levels, the critical link between gut health and focus, and how to use positive affirmations to support mental health. Whether you are homeschooling or looking for alternative support for a neurodivergent child, this episode provides hope backed by results.
