Exercise For Your Brain!

Just the other day, the credit card reader at the gas pump asked for a PIN number. Well, sure. 549368…wait is it 68, or 86, or…?

As we age, the old memory bank begins to get a little depleted. Using the mind is a real gift, and we can cheat the aging process to some degree if we work at it. More important, how do we get our kids started in the right direction? The child who uses his mind to its full potential has a far better chance at a more successful and balanced life.

It made us think that some time back we saw a feature on 20/20 about a guy who developed some kind of mind enhancement program, so we looked it up. The man is Mike Byster and his amazing program is called Brainetics. You have to check this out. Brainetics is a breakthrough math and memory system that kind of turbo charges your brain the same way those car fanatics soup up their engines to make them perform better.

This program is an absolute winner for kids. In just 20 minutes a day, they can develop a really expansive mega-memory, master amazing math feats, get the confidence to succeed, and unlock learning potential. That’s a lot of heavy-duty benefit and is probably why the program won award from Parents Choice.

The program achieves these great results by using mathematics to teach the learner how to use two parts of the brain at the same time. One part processes information while the other part stores the information. Kids who use the program do better at math, history, science and languages. That does it for us. Time to sign up for Brainetics. Where’s that piece of paper that had the phone number.....it's around here somewhere.
