If you have a child (or an adult) in your family who has, or you suspect may have this disorder, the conflict, chaos, and frustration that it generates can be so disrupting to family harmony that you may sometimes wonder if it will ever get any better!   Helping the individual with this disorder not only can turn the world around for them, but can work wonders for the whole family.

Children have natural sense of optimism and innocence about them that allows them to genuinely feel that problems will naturally get better (even when there is no real reason to believe so) on their own. This optimism can be heard when they say “Things Will be better next year” or “I’ll get off to a good start next school year.

There are few things more magical for a child’s self confidence than when something actually does happen to change the circumstances and bring that about.  Anactual increase in their abilities to concentrate and/or improve their behavior, combined with the then evident validation of theiroptimism,
“Look, see I was right, Iam doing better, I am smart!”  brings about a surge of confidence that is wonderful to see.  A child in this situation can really take off and soar!

Not only is summertime the pause between the old and the (better?)  New Year, it is a relatively less hectic time of the year.   Schedules (vacations notwithstanding) are more flexible, the pressures of school and homework arc loosened, and it is a timeto more easily accomplish a special project.

The way to actually change the ADD child’s circumstances or abilities is to take this time to correct the disorder. This can be done in this space oftime through Neurofeedback training.   Neurofeedback is a safe effective, non drug procedure that corrects the underlying imbalances which brings about ADD. Once the training is complete, no further treatment is necessary, you know what?.. .your child actually was right to believe in themselves, next year actually was better.

Neurofeedback is an effective, drug-free, painless procedure in which the child learns to re-train the attention mechanisms of the brain, alleviating the condition. Once training is completed, no further treatment is necessary

We do, however, speak a message of wisdom among the mature, but not the wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing. 7 No, we speak of God's secret wisdom, a wisdom that has been hidden and that God destined for our glory before time began.
