Brain Research has clearly established that emotional and physical health directly influence children’s ability to learn and consequently affect their performance in school (see Vail). Essentially, the best students are the happiest students. For that reason, Brain Education seeks to enhance learning ability by first creating happier and healthier children. Through consistent BE practice, children gain a sense of empowerment toward the creation of a fulfilling and healthy lifestyle.

Of course, Brain Education created by Ilchi Lee is not only educational system to emphasize the role of the brain in the learning process. Educators are increasingly turning to the discoveries of neuroscience to help them better understand how students learn, and many brain-based educational methods are in use today. In some ways, however, the study of the human brain is still in its infancy, and many aspects of brain function remain a mystery. You could say that we are just now entering “the era of the brain,” as neuroscientific knowledge increases almost daily, and the link between this information and education pedagogy grows stronger and stronger.
