Colleen Bain is now a provider of Rhythmic Entrainment Intervention (REI) which is a completely non-participatory program. This means you can play the cd while your child sleeps and get results, if you so choose.

REI uses Rhythms and not frequencies so it is not anything related to Tomatis or AIT. The goal is to help a person's ability to function; helping the sensory processing system better organize itself.

The program helps the brain be malleable and able to handle a variety of input. This program compliments OT, Speech Cognitive-Behavioral, and Brain training programs.

The program is also extremely helpful for children with sensory, anxiety, ADHD, oppositional and more. Read below and if you are interested in working with this program now, set up a free 30 min. consult with Colleen to see if your child qualifies.

The program protocol works with CD #1 for 3 weeks to synchronize your child's brain and prepare for CD 2. CD #1 is only 20 minutes long. Then weeks 3-8 are CD 2 which is only about 20 min. in length. I am working with a few families to help them through the REI program and gather my own data on to how much cognitive, social and other changes will be seen.

The program extends into Level 2 CDs when your child is ready. The cost is the same as program level 1 = $495.00. Some families can work with REI beyond 3 months – it really depends on the child and whether the family wants to continue or not to build beyond the initial program goals.

The REI Custom Program™ is a custom-made auditory program that you play once a day in your home. This unique program is designed to provide positive gains in the areas that are identified from your answers in the comprehensive intake form. These may include (but are not limited to):

Language and communication skills
Hyperactivity and impulsivity
Self-stimulatory and self-abusive behaviors
Oppositional behaviors
Sensory processing
Learning abilities
Attention and focusing
Social skills
Aggression
Anxiety

Learning Skills 101 – Sustained Attention

colleen — Thu, 04 Feb 2010 13:00:22 +0000

So far, we have been discussing what learning skills are and how they impact a student on a daily basis. If you recall, we stated that learning skills are the underlying mental skills formally known as attention, visual/auditory processing, memory, processing, word attack and auditory analysis. Most of our children experience these skills through reading, writing, spelling, paying attention, remembering, recalling and how quick we can respond to a request.

To continue our discussion around the "attention" learning skill, we recall our student from last week's example was having trouble with selective attention. We said selective attention is the skill that enables us to literally choose what we will pay attention to. We can still take in everything in our visual span but we only "select" one thing at a time to pay attention to.

This week we talk about sustained attention. Sustained attention is the ability to direct attention and focus on one main thing for a period of time. The fact that you are reading this article and keeping your attention focused on these words is an example of sustained attention. For children, sustained attention can be seen when they need to stay on task for a period of time. If they are to be able to read for 20 minutes in a reading period, they need the skill to keep them on task.

Of course, the challenge is what to do when the child is not able to stay on task? Its important to recognize that the child could have weak attention skills. Sometimes, there are other variables that add to the weak attention skills. For example, weak auditory or visual processing along with memory skills could be part of the bigger problem. The best way to determine where your child skills reside is to have them assessed and then create a plan of action to strengthen them.

The good news is that the above skill is just one of many that you are able to strengthen due to the brain's ability to develop and grow. The Enhanced Learning Skills System was designed to strengthen learning skills required to learn and read easier and more efficiently. Call me today for an assessment and let's begin working together to help your child learn with ease.

Next time, we will discuss another learning skill and that impacts everyday learning ability and how there is hope and a solution. Call today for more information on your choices! Colleen can be reached at (908) 285-8352.
