Brain Builder

See significant, lasting changes in auditory and visual sequential processing skills and short-term memory. Psychologists and educators call it "sequential processing." It's essential to every mental process, including every level of verbal communication. Better sequential processing enables us to take in more of what there is to see and hear. It determines how quickly and clearly we can grasp concepts with 3 or 5 or 7 components. And it determines how effectively we can express ourselves to others. If sequential processing capacity is limited, it's a little like not having enough RAM in your computer. Some things work just fine. Others work, but s-l-o-w-l-y, or more crudely. And certain things become impossible, resulting in frustration.

A tool for strengthening core mental capacities

Fast, simple, easy-to-use software helps you get powerful results in as little as 10 minutes per day. With Brain Builder, you play up to 7 different 2-3 minute activities every day. Brain Builder automatically sets and adjusts the level of difficulty to help you succeed and challenge you to improve, providing feedback every step of the way.

What kind of intelligence will the 21st Century require? The rate at which we need to process information in today's high-speed, information-packed, constantly changing competitive environment can be overwhelming. Making matters worse, many children and adults must work unusually hard to do normal tasks, due to processing inefficiencies

The principle behind Brain Builder is exercise. The more you exercise your brain's fundamental processing capacities, the stronger, more efficient and more organized they become. As the pathways of your neural network proliferate and deepen, so too will your ability to absorb and process information quickly and easily. 

The result is clearer, quicker thinking, less confusion and better communication. You'll have less need to reread information or hear it repeated, and faster, more accurate responses to real-life or academic problems. Naturally, this means less stress, higher self-esteem, and greater satisfaction and all-around success in life. 

Brain Builder's seven Neurodevelopmental exercises are tuned to the precise frequency, intensity, and duration that best stimulates higher brain function, opens the mind, and trains it to learn more effectively. 

There are three (3) visual activities, three (3) auditory activities, and one (1) intensity activity. The six core activities all involve seeing or hearing, and then recalling, a series of numbers. This skill is often measured by standardized tests, where it is called "digit span." 

In Brain Builder, digit span is not just tested, but exercised. There are six separate activities that, over time, have been shown to build sequential processing capacities in people at all levels. With regular use of Brain Builder, you can gradually increase the number or "span" of digits, or numbers, that you can store and retrieve. This increases your short-term memory capacity. 

By doing these exercises, you increase the number of pieces of information that you can take in sequentially, hold, process, and recall. Better memory is just the first level of benefit you will notice. Building digit span means increasing the number of abstractions you can keep in mind when understanding and processing language, and the ability to think sequentially in any life situation. If you can grasp the relationship of more factors that are interacting in a given situation you may be able to solve problems successfully that would otherwise be too complex to comprehend.

Memory in Normal Aging

News reports related to Aging Deficits

Many of the cognitive deficits associated with advancing age are related to functions of the prefrontal cortex such as working memory, decision-making, planning, and judgment. Postmortem examination of 20 brains ranging in age from 25 to 83 years, confirm that prefrontal regions may be particularly sensitive to the effects of aging. It also appears that white matter decreases at a faster rate than grey matter with age.
The findings were presented to the annual Society for Neuroscience meeting in San Diego, US. August 2001

Studies of more than 350 men and women between the ages of 20 and 90 have found that cognitive decline starts as early as the twenties, and this decline in cognitive processing power appears to be constant - that is, the rate of decline is the same when you are in your twenties as when you are in your sixties. However, young adults do not notice this decline because the loss has not yet become great enough to affect everyday activities.
Denise Park, who directs the Center for Aging and Cognition at the University of Michigan Institute for Social Research (ISR) presented a paper on these studies on Aug. 24 in San Francisco at the annual meeting of the American Psychological Association.

Certainly, it seems that, cognitive decline is less in those who engage more frequently in cognitively stimulating activities. Cognitive training programs are the perfect stimulation to prevent or reverse cognitive impairment in many seniors. The Seattle Longitudinal Studies of adult intelligence suggested that the observed decline in many community-dwelling older people is probably a function of disuse and is often reversible. It was found that some 2/3 of participants in a cognitive training program showed significant improvement, and 40% of those who had declined significantly were indeed returned to their earlier (pre-decline) level of cognitive functioning. These training gains were retained over seven years. We have the best of the cognitive training tools on the market available at our center as well as providing home versions if you prefer.

Nutritional supplements are available to protect your memory. Most commonly marketed ‘memory formulas’ demonstrate a lack of understanding of basic brain chemistry, and often end up only weakening the memory of the user rather than strengthening it. We have a nutritional supplement called Memorin. To find out more about it click here  (  Memorin )
