Paperback. Zustand: Good. A bestseller in Canada and Australia, this is the incredible story of a woman who struggled with severe learning disabilities, built herself a better brain, and started a program that has helped thousands of others do the same. Barbara Arrowsmith-Young was born with severe learning disabilities. As a child, she read and wrote everything backward, struggled to comprehend language, and was continually getting lost. But by relying on her formidable memory, she made her way to graduate school, where she chanced upon research that inspired her to invent cognitive exercises to fix her own brain. The Woman Who Changed Her Brain interweaves her personal tale with riveting case histories from more than thirty years of her work with both children and adults. People with learning disorders have long been told that such difficulties are a lifelong condition. In clear and lucid writing, The Woman Who Changed Her Brain refutes that message, demonstrating with fascinating anecdotes that anyone with a learning disability can be radically trans-formed: Arrowsmith-Young is a living example. She founded the Arrowsmith School in Toronto in 1980 and then the Arrowsmith Program to train teachers to implement this effective methodology in schools all over North America. This remarkable book by a brilliant pioneer deepens our understanding of how the brain works. Our brain shapes us, and this book offers clear and hopeful evidence of the corollary: that we can shape our brains.…

The Big 3 C?s (Challenge, Change, and Complexity) are the very fabric of every human experience, yet when these moments show up in our lives, they are often the exact opposite experiences we wish to encounter.We are all resilient. Resilience is the essence of being human. We all also have resilience stories. Yet, the resilience stories that are our superpower, our defining moments that have led to triumph and transformation, often remain hidden, untold, until now!

When we retell our stories of the Big 3 C?s, after healing and reflection, we effectively transmute the darkest times of our lives into a light that shines out into the world, onto other people?s paths, piercing the hopelessness and serving as a signpost of encouragement.The stories in Triumphs of Transformation reminds us that the challenge you have, are, or will face is not the ?period? punctuating the end of the sentence of your life, it is the ?comma,? inviting you to write the next sentence of your existence. These stories of both well-known and every day people remind us, even in our darkest times, that hope is only one story away, we can, in the words of Brene Brown, all be part of one another?s survival guides, and that not a single drop of pain or misfortunate is wasted in our formation.
