The send button is there, tempting you to hit it the moment you finished an email or text message. It can be the misheld belief of some dyslexics, and until recently by me, that “normal” people can write a text message or email and do not have to go back and edit it. This is not right – having spoken to plenty people on this, they always wait 5 to 10 minutes before sending their emails as they need to proofread it and sometimes realise that the initial message makes no sense at all. If you, like me, have held this belief for years is a massive surprise. It is a good habit to cultivate, if you have time, to pause before sending particularly emails and text messages (although most my friends have understood my unique take on English language while texting by now!)
Episode 92 – Could this be the ‘cure’ for Dyslexia with Dr. Robert Melillo?
In this episode, Matthew Head interviews Dr. Robert Melillo, a renowned specialist in childhood neurological disorders, about how understanding neuroanatomy can reshape dyslexia treatment. Dr. Melillo, creator of the ‘Melillo Method,’ has developed a holistic approach to address brain imbalances behind learning and behavioral disorders, including dyslexia, autism, and ADHD. He explains “functional disconnection,” a leading theory for understanding these conditions, and how his method combines brain exercises, nutrition, and lifestyle changes to help patients of all ages achieve brain and body balance. Dr. Melillo’s work, inspired by his children’s struggles with learning disabilities, aims to minimize dyslexia’s challenges while enhancing its strengths. This episode offers fresh insights into navigating dyslexia and explores Dr. Melillo’s research and bestselling books, which provide valuable resources for parents and educators.
