Attention Awakening

Awakening and Enlightenment: two stages of one path

Attention Awakening is the first stage: waking the attention up. In a child or adult with attention and learning difficulties, attention is as if asleep. It is there, but not available when it is needed. In the Five Golden Elements program we wake it up through movement.

Attention Enlightenment is the next stage. Once attention is awake, we illuminate it: sharpen it, deepen it and bring it to a master's level. This is done through Scientific Wing Tsun, which works both brain hemispheres at the same time.

First we awaken, then we enlighten.

The Five Golden Elements for Improving Learning Skills

For children and adults with ADD/ADHD, dyslexia and dyscalculia.

This is the most experienced movement treatment program there is: about 45 years of work by certified therapist Irit Rihan at the therapeutic department of the Ministry of Education in Dimona. In all those years she has never failed with a single student. Tens of thousands of successes, one by one. This is not a private body, and all the reports are real.

The updated program is more comprehensive and strives for significant improvement in five elements:

• Sensing: taking in stimuli from the body and the environment correctly.
• Neurology: coordination between the brain hemispheres.
• Thinking: processing, understanding and order.
• Attention: attention span and attention quality.
• Self-confidence: the belief in the ability to succeed.

The Focus Pole and the figure-eight walk

One of the program's central tools is the Focus Pole, a pole with lights. The patient walks around it in a figure eight while the eyes follow the lights. The exercise makes the brain coordinate body movement, eye movement and attention all at once, connecting the two brain hemispheres and waking the attention up.

The Five Elements program combines simple, intermediate and complex figure-8 walking with ancient Chinese training, scientifically adapted to treat attention and concentration problems, dyslexia and dyscalculia, and supported by laser-optic technology rooms costing $530,000 per room. The rooms measure attention span and quality, the transmission between the brain hemispheres, and eye movement.
