Barbara Arrowsmith-Young: Rewiring the Brain to Overcome Learning Challenges
I'm passionate about this work because I think fundamentally it alleviates human suffering.
Ever wondered if it's possible to rewire your brain to overcome learning difficulties? Barbara Arrowsmith-Young, the founder of the Arrowsmith Program, joins Dr. Marcia Sirota on 'Ruthless Compassion' to share her groundbreaking journey. Barbara's program focuses on strengthening weak cognitive functions that often hinder learning. Her work, which spans over four decades, is a pioneering example of neuroplasticity—the brain's ability to change and adapt throughout one's life.
In this episode, Barbara recounts her personal struggles with severe learning disabilities and how they led her to develop a program that has transformed countless lives. The Arrowsmith Program doesn't just teach students; it reshapes their brains, leading to improved cognitive processing, reduced anxiety, and enhanced reasoning skills. With a vision that every struggling learner can benefit from brain-changing programs, Barbara's story is both inspiring and revolutionary.
