While sitting in on several of Dr. Taylor’s seminars, I have noticed how her listeners always give rapt attention, eagerly absorbing what she is presenting. She has a way of making complicated matters understandable and even dynamically interesting. She gives abundant food for thought and life-changing insights. —Leona Glidden Running, Ph.D. __________________ Arlene Taylor is an excellent example of what a health educator should be. Her presentations are polished, articulate, and dynamic. Positive evaluations from seminar participants are guaranteed. —Carol Williams, RN, BS __________________ Thank you for presenting such a wonderful seminar, The Brain Program. Through this information, I have learned that I have a right frontal lead and that I am a high introvert with visual preference. I must say that I have been tempted to greet people with the very sentence, "Hello, I’m Wendy, I’m a right frontal, high introvert and visual." I am so excited to find out this information about myself. Now I have permission to be me. The information has helped me to embark on an exciting journey of self-discovery. I feel as if a weight has been lifted. Thank you for such a wonderful weekend. I certainly will pass along this information! —Wendy S. Perrott, M.D., F.A.C.O.G., Florida __________________ Betsy and I are still overflowing with enthusiasm because of your seminar, The Brain Program. I don't know how many people we've talked to since we attended who have had to listen while we describe one of the greatest experiences we've ever had. Thank you for unlocking so much for us. We have a new, energetic "Sense of Spirit"! Actually, I've been considering the advantages of a repeat weekend! —Dan Matthews, Host of Lifestyle Magazine, Faith for Today

Dr. Taylor offers cutting-edge research packaged in a “user-friendly” way. It is rare to find a person who has such a winning combination—a deep knowledge base coupled with a clear and warm communicative style. —Sandra Doran, Ed.D., specialist in learning disabilities and attentional disorders __________________ The Brain Program had an immediate and powerful impact upon my life. I had practiced Homeopathic medicine and psychotherapy in Palos Verdes, California for the past ten years. The information that Dr. Taylor so magically teaches in two whirlwind days, regarding innate brain giftedness, provides you with awareness as well as tools for changing your life. If it’s a better life you need, it will be improved by the seminar. If you have a great life, the seminar will improve that, also. I am now viewing my family and friends in a more evolved and peaceful light. Arlene has identified and unleashed another of my passions in my search for the truth of my life. Thanks and praise for her accomplishments that have allowed her to design and present the most unique seminar I have ever attended. —Dr. Sherry Greenberg, P O Box 214, Palos Verdes estates, California 90274 __________________ The brain program was one of the most outstanding seminars that I have attended. You have an outstanding knowledge of the subject, but even more important, you modeled its content throughout the entire seminar. You have inspired me to study much deeper into your resources in order to understand myself and others more fully. Thank for your commitment, compassion, and understanding. It means so much. —Tom Amato, Sixth Grade Educational Specialist, California __________________ The brain program was an awesome seminar. Really turned my crank. It provided keys to making choices that bring joy and health to life instead of getting pushed into doing things because of expectations of what others value. I would attend again in a heartbeat! —Jack Nash, Pastor
