Arlene R. Taylor, PhD, is an internationally known writer, speaker, and brain function specialist. She is founder and president of Realizations Inc., a nonprofit corporation formed in 1993. It engages in brain-function research and in providing related educational resources. Current research makes it clear that everything starts in the brain and that knowing how to use yours by design is key to staying healthier and younger for longer.

Dr. Taylor incorporates brain-function information in her books, weekday blogs, audio podcasts, YouTube videos, quarterly electronic Brain Bulletin (SynapSez®) in-person presentations, and her talk show: Brain Secrets. The information she shares, when practically applied, can help you to be more successful—by design.

Among her other books, emerging knowledge about music and the brain led Taylor to coauthor Music on the Brain. She is “having a lot of fun” with her latest endeavor, Legends of the Wild. This 12-book series utilizes animal allegories to reveal the contribution that high levels of Emotional Intelligence makes to the Success Formula and to achieving overall success in life—and what can happen when EQ skills are low—or nonexistent.

A fan of distance learning, especially for busy adults, Taylor is a diplomate with the National Christian Counselors Association (N.C.C.A.), reportedly the largest of its kind in the world. As such, she mentors selected master’s and doctoral students. Taylor began her career as a registered nurse and added a Master's and two earned Doctorates to her educational resume.
