Ilchi Lee, developer of Brain Education and president of International Brain Education Association, announced that Mayor Phil Gordon on behalf of the City of Phoenix signed a proclamation on August 16 declaring Brain Education Week in Phoenix to be September 5-11, 2007.
The starting day of the Brain Education Week coincided with Ilchi Lee’s Light of Tao workshop for Dahn Yoga Center members in the Phoenix region. As with this workshop and nearly all the programs Ilchi Lee presents, their content and methods are related to Brain Education.
The Phoenix proclamation for Brain Education Week was based on these declarations: Brain Education Week celebrates the promotion of the awareness of the brain and its potential to improve the human condition; Brain Education consists of training programs to improve physical condition, ability to create and manage emotions skills of cooperation, and creative power; Brain Education can help students reach their full learning potential through body and brain exercises; and the Third International Brain HSP Olympiad and Brain Education Conference took place in New York State in August 2007, with 700 adults and children participating.
