" Imagine how much you can learn if you spend just 30 minutes a day for the next year in the best classrooms in the world."

Taught By Professor Richard Restak, M.D., Georgetown University School of Medicine,


The George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences

With its up to 500 trillion synaptic connections, your brain is easily
the most powerful machine in the world. These connections are what
create your thoughts, what drive your emotions, and what control your
behaviors. Even more incredibly: This amazing machine is constantly
changing through a process known as brain plasticity. And you can take
advantage of this process to improve and enhance your brain's
jaw-dropping powers—at any age.


Brain plasticity, the secret to optimizing your brain's fitness, is one
of the most revolutionary discoveries in modern neuroscience. While it
was traditionally thought that our brains were fully formed by
adulthood, the truth is that our life experiences continually shape and
mold our brains in fascinating ways. In fact, optimal brain fitness is
the gateway to improvement in a range of areas, including

memory;
attention and focus;
learning and creativity; and
sensory acuity and fine motor skills.

Now, discover the secrets to increasing and expanding your brain's power
to meet everyday challenges and enhance the quality of your life with
Optimizing Brain Fitness, an engaging 12-lecture course that shows you
how to take advantage of the basic principles of brain operation and
build the brain you want to live with for the rest of your life.
Delivered by Dr. Richard Restak, an award-winning teacher, practicing
neurologist, and professor at The George Washington University School of
Medicine and Health Sciences, these lectures are packed with vital
information and research-based exercises you can perform every day to
tap into your hidden mental potential.


Explore Your Brain's Most Important Functions

Optimizing Brain Fitness centers on the idea that your brain is a
continual work in progress, one whose development depends on the best
possible use of your brain's most important everyday functions. You
explore many functions in these lectures, with a strong focus on three.


General memory: General memory facilitates the formation, activation,
and retention of neurological circuits that contribute to your brain's
optimal functioning. Memory is the veritable bedrock of superior brain
health and serves as the basis of your personal identity.


Attention: Optimal attention skills open the door to top-notch
performance in math, reading, and auditory and visual memory. They
provide you with the basis for learning what to focus on and what to
ignore, and they also coordinate the brain networks that involve
sensation, movement, emotions, and thought.


Working memory: Working memory is linked with your IQ and is the first
brain function to decline as you age. It is central to your ability to
manipulate stored information and can easily be improved by practicing a
series of simple exercises.


You'll also spend time delving into the neurology of motor skills, visual-spatial thinking, creativity, and more.


Engage in a Wealth of Delightful Exercises


Professor Restak proves that exercising your brain doesn't have to be a
burden or a chore. Rather, it can be an exciting and eye-opening way to
explore how the brain works and to discover your own brain's potential.


Dr. Restak has designed Optimizing Brain Fitness with a wealth of
exercises, challenges, practice problems, and tests that will enhance
and improve your brain's essential functions. Here is just a small
sample of the enjoyable ways that you can improve your brain.


n one minute, name as many animals as you can without repeating them.
You'll have to use your working memory to mentally eliminate animals
you've already named. A desirable score is between 17 and 20 animals.


Close your eyes and envision the room around you, and then open them and
check for accuracy. Repeat this memory-recall exercise and pay closer
attention to smaller details, such as the number of magazines on a
table.


Take a number of spices at random and set them on a table; then close
your eyes and try to identify each of them by smell alone. Take this
same approach by identifying spices in a meal that you're eating. Both
exercises are great ways to sharpen your senses of smell and taste.


Winner of Georgetown University Medical School's Linacre Medal for
Humanity and Medicine, Professor Restak is an accomplished neurologist,
prolific author, frequent public lecturer for prestigious institutions,
and—above all—a champion of brain fitness. Rooted in the startling new
findings emerging from groundbreaking experiments and detailed research
studies, his course is the perfect way to maintain or improve the health
of the most important organ in your body.


Insightful, instructive, and undeniably fun, Optimizing Brain Fitness is
an invaluable part of your personal tool kit for lasting health and
wellness.

Thank you for this! I think that excersizing your brain is even more important than putting stuff in it such as learning new things. This type of subject has always fascinated me and never hesitate to jump on the opportunity to pick up something new.

thanks man

[sweetpotato]

For sure it will be interesting stuff to read and review but from my experience I must say it'd better to have some skills and learning new ones.
I tried some programs like that and I'm a bit disapointed with everything related to it as I tried many things like learning music theory (and somewhat practice) and how to draw and it's still hard to achieve even if you make progress in some games or stuff like that SO...

I recomend you to learn new stuff (mostly by practise, theory is useless if solo) and "expand brain" both.

Cool share. Definitely going to check it out. Reps added.
