MODERN, SEDENTARY LIFE – TRAIN WRECK FOR BRAINS Join Tom for what many have said is the most provocative, eye-opening workshop they’ve attended in years. You’ll travel back in time to compare past human lifestyle to modern, western culture. We’ve known for decades that our American lifestyle is bad for us physically, but research is revealing how damaging it is to our neurology as well. While many factors hinder healthy brain development, we now know the biggest culprit: lack of physical activity and movement. You’ll discover how unprecedented lifestyle changes over the past 100 years are affecting the genetics of our population, resulting in the dramatic rise in issues like ADHD, learning disabilities, and autism. But there’s hope! First Tom will show how we can stimulate the brains of children with these social, behavioral, and academic challenges so their symptoms dramatically lessen. More importantly, you’ll learn that physical educators are in a unique position to help parents dramatically reduce the chances their children will develop these neurobehavioral disorders in the first place. Throughout his workshop, Tom will model brain-friendly
