Reclaim Your Brain Before It's Too Late
The brain is the engine that drives the thinking process. Like all parts of our body the brain also needs to be exercised to get the most out of it. Studies show that the human brain starts slowing down at around age 30. There are ways to keep the brain up to speed, and that's where Lumosity comes in. The site describes it as "the brain fitness program designed by neuroscientists that is scientifically demonstrated to improve your memory, attention and processing speed."Lumos Labs have developed some quick and fun games to help stimulate the brain in those 3 areas. Find out how quickly you think, how well you remember, and how effectively you attend to the world around you. Play these IQ games to get your brain back up to speed and then brag about your scores in a comment. The best part is, it's very addictive!

I has bragging rights: 143! (Birdwatching game)
WOW! That game reminds me of Duck Hunt.
the way to reclaim your brain is to always remain curious. Curiosity is the way that keeps people and the brain in touch with the child within them that feels the exiliration and wonder of discovery. It helps maintain the those who are in advanced years from losing that youth-full ability and reinforces their determination to recapture the youthful patterns of thought they discovered as children when , in the process of being curious , they saw something new and wonderful that stayed with them and becomes the building block for the search for more things to be curious about.
Thanks for the tip, will try this program every day for a while to evaluate it. Learning should be fun! =)
Ilker, another great way to reclaim your brain is to drink water. Many people go around about 5% dehydrated. Water fuels the brain and if it's denied or if water's contaminated with chemicals, I don't need to say much more...
I have bragging rights for low scores. Will have to go back at different times in the day to see when my peak hours might be.
Great! Now I have something new to distract me during my day! I love this site and I'm hooked on the Bird Watching game. I've made it up to 12,000, but now it's impossibly hard.
there's a c0ol new Web2.0 App www.SecondBrain.com that lets U collect all yer Online Stuff ie Flickr + YouTube + delicious + Squidoo etc. & Store them in 1 place*
It's always useful to have a 2nd Brain!!
Cheers!! Billy ;))
Peace*
Thanks for the link. It sure is helpful for the brain. It's nice to get some exercise for our brain to develop or to regain back what we've lost.
Got 140 on the Birdwatching game... I'm apparently 3 points less attentive than Ilker.
Thanks for sharing the link. Those are great activities for the developing brain as well as for those that need practice.
I like bird watch the most. It's great in developing our observation.
My total score was 124 for all three games. Thanks for the link to this ilker. I've been wanting to find something to help increase my brain functions. The brain really is like a muscles and the more you work it the stronger it gets :)
