Description

Dr. Donalee Markus has developed a method of brain restructuring using visual puzzles. By having clients replicate abstract images, Markus identifies their unique neural pathways and helps them rewire their brains to improve cognitive functions and even heal from traumatic brain injuries. This method, while unusual, has helped a variety of individuals, from children diagnosed with autism to high-achieving professionals. Markus' approach focuses on activating underutilized parts of the brain through deliberate practice, much like working out muscles. While her method is not without its critics, Markus has gained a loyal following and continues to advocate for her unique approach to brain stimulation and healing.
