Wiser Now Brain Aerobics Weekly
Sign up today for Brain Aerobics Weekly!
If you are worried about the state of your brain, and looking for ways to keep an active mind, Wiser Now has a product that is fun, wide-ranging, and easy to order and access.
Wiser Now approaches mind-stretching activities with three goals:
- Reduce stress (Relaxed learners learn more)
- Have fun (Laughter brings oxygen to your brain to literally "freshen" your thinking) and
- Build self esteem (by exploring your strengths and interests)
Brain Aerobics Weekly provides activities in five categories:
- Logic/trivia
- Using your imagination; tapping into your creativity
- Short articles to discuss (with questions provided)
- Word games (but never a crossword puzzle, because those are widely available elsewhere)
- Potpourri – Extra games, puzzles, quizzes, resources and websites
Each week’s material comes as a downloadable pdf file in your email as a printable, low-tech alternative to people who may not be able to use a computer or who want to provide multiple copies to share. The material works well for:
- Stimulating non-controversial discussion among friends, relatives and colleagues
- Team-building exercises
- Quizzes as contests
- Keeping individual minds active
To date, it has been used successfully with older adults, young soldiers returning from Iraq, and families, among others.
Bonus #1
When you sign up, you will receive a free downloadable booklet on learning styles, surveys and tips. (For example, do you know that it is as important to keep your feet moving as to keep your mind thinking?)
Bonus #2
Subscribers will also be provided access – for those who want it -- to a frequently updated downloadable booklet on how to adapt activities for people with mild to moderate memory loss or dementia.
Price: Only $30/year for individual subscriptions. If you represent a corporation, organization or the media, contact Kathy Laurenhue to discuss alternative options for system-wide use and/or alternatives for adapting all or parts of the exercises.
