In this episode of The Intelligent Divorce with Mark Banschick, M.D., we discuss learning disabilities in children and help identify signs that a child may be in trouble. If you suspect your child is having difficulty in school due to the stress of divorce or a learning disability, it’s important to get them tested and identify the problem as soon as possible.
Getting your child into a set routine is a great way to balance their life. Good sleeping, eating, and study habits are critical to your child’s well-being, and Dr. Banschick provides an example of what this looks like.
We also identify common learning disabilities and provide options for treatment, including prescribed medication. 5% of children in school today are dealing with ADHD. If you suspect that your child may be exhibiting signs of ADD, ADHD, or a learning disability, know that you’re not alone–evaluation and help are available. Be proactive in getting help for your child.
Topics in the program include:
- Setting a routine for your child
- How to create an environment conducive to study at home
- Working with teachers to identify and support your child’s needs
- The different types of learning disabilities
- Defining ADD and available treatment options
- How ADD affects kids in school

Tap Into Reducing the Stress of Divorce
By · CommentsThere’s a new relatively new way of achieving stress reduction and it based on the same principles that have been used for thousands of years in acupuncture. It’s called EFT(Emotional Freedom Technique,) and results are delivered without the needles of acupuncture. To achieve the stress-relieving benefits of EFT, all one needs to know is how to tap.
In this program, we show you how to tap into reducing the stress of divorce. As simple as this sounds, “tapping” different parts of your body has produced remarkable clinical results of stress reduction and is used by many Major League athletes, as well as business professionals. Divorce is one of the most stressful situations we face in life, so the potential benefits from EFT could help thousands of our listeners.
In this episode of Divorce Source Radio with Steve Peck, Brad Yates, an expert in EFT, joins us and explains how we might benefit from tapping. Brad has had the privilege and pleasure of working with a diverse group of clients, from CEOs to professional and NCAA athletes, from chiropractors and psychiatrists to corporate and federal attorneys, from award-winning actors to residents at a program for homeless men and women in Santa Monica. Brad is the author of the best-selling children’s book, “The Wizard’s Wish,” the co-author of the best-seller, “Freedom at Your Fingertips,” a featured expert in the film, “The Tapping Solution” (along with Jack Canfield, Bob Proctor, Dr. Norman Shealy and Dr. Bruce Lipton,) and has been heard internationally on a number of internet radio talk shows.
Tapping is not just for adults. Our children can benefit from EFT, as well. For more information on Brad Yates, visit his website at www.BradYates.net. So, what are you waiting for? Let’s get tapping!

What’s Your Love Language?
By · CommentsIn episode #8 of Single Again! Now What?, Joanie, Lesley and Steve explore “The 5 love Languages”, based around the book “The 5 Love Languages” by Dr. Gary Chapman.
After many years of counseling, Dr. Chapman noticed a pattern: everyone he had ever counseled had a “love language,” a primary way of expressing and interpreting love. He also discovered that, for whatever reason, people are usually drawn to those who speak a different love language than their own.
Of the countless ways we can show love to one another, five key categories, or five love languages, proved to be universal and comprehensive—everyone has a love language, and we all identify primarily with one of the five love languages: Words of Affirmation, Quality Time, Receiving Gifts, Acts of Service, and Physical Touch.
Joanie, Lesley and Steve took the 5 Love Languages assessment on www.5LoveLanguages.com and discuss their results. The question is… what love language do you speak? You’ll have a better idea by the end of this program and catch a few laughs in the process.

Under guidance from a health professional, medication can relieve some of the symptoms of anxiety, but it requires non-drug treatments to produce lasting changes and continuing relief from anxiety. Medication doesn’t cure the underlying problem and is usually not a long-term solution. Anxiety medications also come with side effects and safety concerns, including the risk of addiction.
In this episode of The Intelligent Divorce, Mark Banschick, M.D., discusses when drug therapy is deemed appropriate, but also offers healthy alternatives such as meditation, exercise and a healthy diet. Many are surprised to learn that some natural alternatives may work as well as medication. Dr. Banschick believes each patient is unique, and therefore, what suits one patient may not work for another. This program provides options so that you can make a more informed decision regarding your mental and physical health.
