MAKE YOUR CHILD A GENIUS
Can you really make your child a genius ?
Capitalising on the innate desire of every parent to give the best education possible to their children, many programs today claim to hold the master key to making Geniuses.
What makes a Genius or Who is a Genius ? Geniuses are fairly easy to spot, defining exactly what makes one person a genius is a little trickier.
Figuring out how that person became a genius is harder still.
Here are some definitions from the Web :
- someonewho has exceptional intellectual ability and originality; ” brilliance:
unusual mental ability
- ace:someone who is dazzlingly skilled in any field
- exceptionalcreative ability
- flair:a natural talent; “he has a flair for mathematics”; “he has a
genius for interior decorating”
Geniuses like Mozart, Einstein
and Da Vinci have amazed and baffled mankind. Are they simply blessed with
divine talents or do they possess some secret knowledge?
To gain an insight into the
working of a genius mind, a
group of specialists at a University in Japan invited the famous Japanese
International Chess player Mr Yoshiharu Habu to conduct an interesting
experiment.He is the undisputed champion of Shogi (a complex game which is the
Japanese equivalent of chess),and a widely acclaimed genius and a top celebrity
in Japan.
In this experiment, the
specialists used an electroencephalograph, a special kind of equipment that
monitors brainwave activity, which would indicate the part of the brain that is
used when performing certain tasks and can be observed on a computer monitor. Usually,
when playing the game of chess, a normal person would think with his left brain
using logic to plan his next few moves. But in the case of Mr Habu, the
specialists made an amazing discovery that showed other wise.
Mr Habu’s brainwave graph,
on the contrary, showed that he had used his right brain most of the time
before eventually switching to his left brain just before he made his move.
Upon further investigations using the electroencephalograph, the specialists
finally determined that Ms Habu had first used the right brain’s cognitive
images and spatial orientation to think and plan, and subsequently switched to
the left brain for logical linguistic confirmation before making his move on
the chess board.
Right Brain Holds the Key
This important discovery
led the specialists to carry out further studies and experimentation with a
wider selection of gifted individuals, and the results were astounding. It has
been shown that, as in Mr Habu’s case, the cognitive process for most gifted
persons is in fact right brain oriented. They tend to utilize the right
brain’s unique spatial awareness and mental images to think and create, while
the normal person uses the left brain to process information in a logical and
sequential manner.
Interestingly, Yoshiharu
Habu’s remark seemed to concur with the findings, as he said, ” Most chess
players’ vision seems to be darting around the chess board while studying the
various moves…. but for me, I would just take a glance focusing on the centre
of the board, and all the possible moves would just materialize in my head
where I plan my advances…. the accuracy is almost 100%.” Amazing indeed, these
geniuses simply have the ability to think out of the box by utilizing the vast
untapped potential of the right brain to combine with the skills of the left.

In most educational systems, the process of learning through drills,
repetition, tests and quizzes depends upon the linear, methodical left brain,
which builds memory through logical links and repetition
The Powerful Right Brained
Children
The typical right-brainers
see a minimal need for rules, are impulsive, question authority and embrace new
challenges and ideas. They are highly imaginative and more often than not, they
would spin into explosive thoughts that gave rise to revolutionary insights and
ideas. As well as imaginative, right-brainers are also creative geniuses and
may be naturals at art or music. In addition, being spatial and
three-dimensional in their thinking, they prefer drawing and creating, and have
a natural ability to hold images in their heads for prolonged periods of time,
far surpassing their left- or whole-brained counterparts in these areas. For
example, many architects can ’see’ in their mind an image of the finished
product long before it’s translated into a blueprint. And artists report they
can visualize exquisite details of a painting in their mind’s eye before they
are transferred to canvas. It is precisely this extraordinary visual memory
that, if harnessed, can enable right-brained individuals to succeed and excel
in the academic environment.
How to Develop the Right
Brain
Quantum Speed Learning (QSL) –
the short cut
Research and studies have shown that the right brain, when duly
developed, complements and aids learning of the left-brain skills. Greater
brainpower can be achieved as a result of integrating the abilities of both
hemispheres of the brain that can be applied to academic studies as well as
developing creative problem-solving skills.
QSL’s innovative and systematic method of training has been proven to be
highly effective in producing remarkable results that are truly attainable. The
program is carefully designed to enable its students to acquire the full range
of cortical skills that they possess but are often neglected and thus under
developed. With the correct method under proper guidance, these faculties can
be nurtured and flourish into life-long skills that can be extended to every
aspects of life.
Harness the extraordinary potential of the right brain not only aids to
lay a strong foundation for learning, ultimately, beyond academic achievements,
develops the multiple intelligences that are now essential requisites to excel
in the new millennium.
The difference between ordinary and extraordinary is just that little
extra!
Benefits of middle brain
activation

•Better learning capabilities
•More confidence & mental stability
Extraordinary Abilities
& Benefits
Super Photographic Memory Outstanding Learning Capability
Amazing Imaging Skill Elevated Self-Esteem
Exceptional Creativity Acute Observation
Increased Concentration Speed Reading and Super Listening
Enhanced Intuition High Speed Data Processing Skill
QSL’s Right Brain learning allows the mind to learn in a whole new way
by activating the less utilized right hemisphere and stimulates the visual
centers of the brain. Visual stimulation aids traditional learning by
developing and sharpening the right brain’s photographic memory, visualization
skills, intuition and creativity, creating a complete well-rounded approach
where learning becomes an integral part of living, working and growing.
Course Features
The course starts with first building a strong foundation using a wide
range of training aids and materials to probe into the right brain’s main
functions to enable its students to apprehend the unique characteristics and
abilities of the right brain. Visually stimulating training aids are included
to strengthen the power of image visualization
paving the way for remarkable memory and
imagination.
With a sound foundation to build upon, right brain-inclined skill
trainings are incorporated to focus on developing powerful tools like Photographic Memory, Speed
Reading & Speed Listening abilityand High Speed Data Processing skill, fully expanding those
intellectual skills that will aid the learning of other disciplines in schools
to cultivate outstanding learning
capability.
Exceptional creativity is
also fostered capacitating the ability to think ‘out of the box’ to generate
creative ideas and solutions intelligently reacting to opportunities and
problem solving.
Each lesson comprises a set of “Routine Foundation Exercises”
providing basic mental exercises to stimulate the right brain combined with a
set of “Potential Development Trainings” specifically designed to
develop and enhance the various intellectual skills.
The basic principle behind this method of training is a technique called
Midbrain Activation, which allows students to access the middle part of the
brain. Normally, one relies more heavily on either their right hemisphere or
left hemisphere of the brain. One’s dominant brain type has a significant
effect on their study habits and grades.
With Midbrain Activation, the middle part of the brain acts as a
‘bridge’ to allow both the right and left hemispheres to work together, thus
increasing the learning capacity of the brain, allowing the student to absorb
more information and learn new skills more easily. When the middle brain is
activated, the student is able to utilize the qualities from both the right and
left hemispheres. It also brings out and strengthens characteristics such as
creativity, memory, application skills, self-confidence, and the ability to
concentrate. These characteristics are especially important in activities where
concentration and anticipation are key factors in attaining positive and
superior results.
The Importance of the Right
Brain Functions: is very well explained by Professor
Makoto Shichida, a world renowned expert in child education and brain
development,
In ancient civilizations
right brain activity was well-developed. The ancient people lacked telephones,
radar, cars and other forms of technology. Despite this limitation they could,
by the use of higher senses, bridge the limitations of distance. Modern man is
predominantly left brained; we use language and sequential learning to acquire
knowledge. This is a tedious lengthy process. Left-brain based education clouds
right-brain activity and the resultant student frustration contributes to
dissatisfaction in the classroom.
Doctors and scientists
became aware of the right brain through the emergence of people with ‘Savants’
syndrome. These people had tremendous memorization skills, generally termed
photographic memory. Their ability to calculate complex equations was almost
instant and correct. In short, they saw the world in terms of images and
patterns. This is the domain of the right brain.
Far from being unique, we
all possess these abilities. At birth, our right brain is fully activated.
Mothers and fathers can communicate with their offspring via telepathy. How
often have you seen a tense mother with a screaming baby? As the mother calms
down, loves and caresses her child harmony is restored. Up to the age of six
years, this ability is present. If not stimulated the ability will diminish and
become dormant (dormant not extinct).
Children learn much faster
than we formerly imagined. By nature, they are very in tune with life around
them. Children are very spiritual; the advice coming from a young set of lips
often shows wisdom beyond their years.
The Quantim Speed Learning method
teaches students to use their natural learning capabilities more effectively
and how to process vast volumes of information with ease. Since the student’s
brain is trained to function as a ‘whole,’ their senses become more aware and
acute, allowing them to comprehend and know what is presented to them even
while they are blindfolded. This heightened sense of awareness leads to higher
levels of performance not only in academic studies , but also in sports and the
arts, enabling the student to gain skills that will aid them in their future
professions and careers, as well.
Unique Functions of the
Right Brain
According to Professor Makoto
Shichidathe functions of the right brain include; ESP or the higher senses
of sight, hearing, smell taste and touch, right brain sensory perception
(holistic mind), right brain arithmetic, right brain memory and right brain
acoustic pitch (perfect pitch).Right brain memory is in image form and long
lasting and right brain thoughts come as inspirations.This half of the brain
has the following unique faculties; resonance function, imaging/ visualisation
function, high-speed mass memorization and high speed automatic processing
function.
The ideal candidates for Midbrain Activation are children between the
ages of 6 and 12 years. The technique is more successful in children of this
age group because their brains are more easily trained and can adapt to new
ways of learning. During the 3-day training program, students will learn how to
enter the genius-mind learning state, how to access midbrain activation to
unleash their hidden potential, how to use the blindfold reading method to
study, build confidence and concentration, speed reading, and the basic
mind-mapping concept.
QUANTUM
SPEED LEARNING METHOD
Using a simple series of
steps: meditation, breathing and imaging; the right brain is progressively
activated. Clear imaging powers must be present before the next step is taken.
Once children are able to form and hold steady images, they begin to flip
rapidly through books.
Being able to read even
blindfolded is one of the child’s
natural talents or abilities. This is done by rapidly flipping through the
pages of a book. No emphasis is placed on reading the written word. The
vibrations coming from the book are perceived and converted into colours and
then images. The images can be seen and the content instantly understood. It is
like the analogy of the blind man and the elephant. A sighted man can instantly
see and know that it is an elephant before him. A blind man must painstakingly
feel, smell and sense to reach the same conclusion.
The right brain processes
information at high speed, allowing the words to become images and images to
join and become pictures. Resonance is a right brain function, i.e. the ability
to communicate information in a universal way. Language of the text thus becomes
irrelevant. The colours emanating from the book reflect the level of
comprehension. Red through to yellow indicates poor levels of comprehension.
The child may not have come across the concept yet and so can’t comprehend it.
Green through to purple indicate good comprehension. White light indicates
universal understanding i.e. the need for co-operation and friendship in
society.
