What is Dyslexia
Thinking in pictures and images rather than actual words
“Dyslexia is a gift, not a disability”
“If you experience it, you can see it, if you can see it you can do it, if you can do it, you remember it.”
~ Ron Davis
Dyslexia covers disorders that involve difficulty in learning to read and write, interpret words, letters, and other symbols, but does not affect general intelligence. Dyslexics are usually highly intelligent people who experience great difficulty with learning most literacy, and it can also affect a range of other areas, including motor skills, their organisation, focus, time and processing difficulties. Sadly because the root cause of dyslexia is not understood, individuals are often treated as though they are deliberately just being uncooperative and ‘difficult’ or even lazy.
Dyslexia is an alternative way of thinking. Because dyslexics think predominantly with pictures and images, this often allows them to picture things with great clarity and speed. The struggle is with two-dimensional symbols such as letters of the alphabet and numerals. These symbols can cause the picture thinker to feel confused and overwhelmed.
If dyslexia is left untreated, this can lead to those feeling a deep sense of frustration, like they don’t belong, and all the negative emotional reactions slowly lead to low self esteem and covering up solutions, creating coping mechanisms.
Once completing a program, clients feel as though a weight has been lifted from their shoulders, as everything starts to become more clear and understood, allowing them to control and manage their dyslexia.
