Mar 29    ''Fix Your Brain'' Seminar with Dr. Bedinghaus
FIX YOUR BRAIN!

Doesn?t it seem like there is an epidemic of dysfunctional brains? Everywhere we turn, we are hearing more and more about the dramatic increase in depression, kids and adults with trouble concentrating and focusing, an escalation in children with autism, and the heartache of our returning soldiers with symptoms of head injuries, and posttraumatic stress syndrome. Is there help for this ?broken brain syndrome?? Yes, there is! Why? Because of something called neuroplasticity: the brain's ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections throughout life. That means the brain can heal itself with the right kind of therapy.

Neurofeedback is a wonderful, safe, non-invasive technique that can restore balance in the brain. We invite you to attend our next one-hour free seminar. You will see a DVD that shows amazing stories of healings using Neuropathways.
