About

The Brain Highways Family Program is an online, entertaining family program where parents and kids spend daily time doing lower brain movements while learning about the nervous system. Families use weekly videos, audio clips, infographics, and activities in their own home as they work toward becoming what the program calls a “connection-mode family.” Course materials include videos, audios, PDF and infographic files, check-in questionnaires, and lower brain assessment checklists, and there is no limited time frame to access these materials except if Brain Highways is no longer operational.

• Ages: 3–18 years old
• Schedule: Upcoming Family Program Part 1 runs May 22, 2026–August 8, 2026, with just parents participating during the first two weeks and kids joining on June 7; families commit 30 (or 20) minutes daily to lower brain movements plus about 10 minutes daily for parent-only support materials
• Price: $345 - Base Family Program (Self-Guided); $695 - Base Family Program (with Basic Support); $945 - Base Family Program (with Premium Support)

Participants are kids ages 3–18 who are described as struggling with anxiety, focus, learning, speech, emotional regulation, sensory processing, socializing, and other challenges, with at least one parent changing their own brain alongside their child. Families have the option to enroll in Part 2 after completing Part 1. Program administrators and assistants provide behind-the-scenes support such as sending course materials, providing technical support, and doing class recordkeeping.

Brain Highways Global is described as an international educational program that helps people change their brain and nervous system to yield remarkable, lasting results, and aims to help others by unfolding a different story that yields lasting results and getting people out of survival mode. The program’s leadership includes Nancy Sokol Green, Creator and Executive Director of Brain Highways Global, and Kiley Wheel, Program Director and Course Facilitator; Kiley Wheel has a degree in physiology. Brain Highways started in public schools in Encinitas, California in 1999, Nancy left the public schools to open the Brain Highways Center in Encinitas in 2004, and they launched their first online program in 2009.

Brain Highways began as a pilot program at Paul Ecke Elementary School with a grant from Wells Fargo Bank, and the San Diego Business Roundtable of Education awarded Brain Highways its Best Practice Award. Nancy has been a consultant to school districts in California, New York, and Texas, a presenter at national education conferences, and a guest lecturer at San Diego State University, San Jose State University, and the University of California at Santa Barbara; she was also the keynote speaker at the San Diego Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics conference and a TEDx presenter at the University of San Diego.

Parents and professionals have shared written feedback about Brain Highways. Dr. Diane Bedrosian states that “The Brain Highways program has earned the respect of both parents and professionals. Its noninvasive approach often helps children move forward in ways that were not previously possible.” Several parents describe specific changes they observed in their children and themselves, including comments from Alexia’s father, Braxton’s mom, CJ’s mom, Sully’s mom, and Thomas’s mom.
