I've shared this book with three generations, and each felt it spoke directly to them and their stage of "memory fog." In this era of digital overload, who doesn't feel their memory is overtaxed? For me, this book was a godsend. It's helped to redirect my nervousness about forgetting passwords, phone numbers, names, and where my car is parked -- into practical exercises and strategies. Accessible, easy to use and downright fun, I love this book. The recipes alone made me feel better. I guess there's hope for mid-lifers like me!
Dr. Green has provided us with a unique and practical book for cognitive vitality. She is a legitimate and recognized expert in the psychology of aging and dementia, and has worked for many years to counsel and train elderly persons with memory and other problems. The book has many useful exercises that the average reader can employ at home. I highly recommend this book.
It's true what they say, the memory is the first to go -- and as much as we hate to admit it, some of us find our memories in rapid-fire fail mode. Dr. Green has created a program that will not only put you on the road to cognitive sharpness, but it's darn entertaining too. I find the exercises engaging and fun to complete. The book further helps by providing you with nutritional information, tasty meal plans (complete with well laid out grocery lists), and physical exercises all geared towards strengthening your mind. As an added bonus, the book was co-written by the editors of Prevention, one of the trusted leaders in health publications. That made the decision to follow the Brainpower Game Plan a no-brainer for me.
The Brainpower Game Plan has many, many great menu suggestions, brain games and exercise routines that will keep you from being bored. I've already lost a few pounds and I don't have the unhealthy cravings I used to have.
I was trying to find a book that would help me sharpen my memory. Well I didn't know half of what is in here and my father in law did't either. So I didn't feel so dumb. It just wasn't the book for me is what it boils down to.
THis just wasn't for me is all. Otherwise I think this would be very helpful for those trying to sharpen your memory. Its just a different type of theory.
