We first understand the Client’s needs. Together with each Client, we set objectives and desired outcomes together.
Next, the Client’s cognitive capabilities are objectively measured and assessed with CognitiveMAP™(Cognitive Measurement – Abilities & Processes) (what is CognitiveMAP?) so that a brain fitness programme that meets the individual needs of each person can be developed for optimum results. 10 Standardised Tests (what are standardised tests?) are used in CognitiveMAP™.
We then adapt our programmes to suit the individual needs of each Client. Our brain is one big neural network. Neural networks are re-wired through a process of building, re-building and re-directing brain connections.
Feedback is continuously generated so we can monitor progress. All new networks are entrenched through repetition at optimal intensity. This is vital for maximum results and efficacy. If the activities are too easy, the brain will not be adequately challenged to build new, stronger and better connections; if the activities are too difficult, the Client will lose motivation, interest and confidence in continuing (just like working out in the gym). Motivation is critical as it release brain chemicals (what are brain chemicals?) that are vital to building stronger brain connections.
The brain is then transformed into a more efficient and effective neural network for performance.
CognitiveMAP™ is a proprietary process that measures the cognitive skills of a Client prior to brain fitness enhancement. Just as it is important to know the state of one’s blood pressure, cholesterol levels etc. in a medical examination, having an analysis of one’s cognitive skills will allow us to identify areas for improvement and to exploit our key mental strengths for success and peak performance. back
Standardised Tests are universally conducted and scored in a consistent manner, allowing a wealth of statistical data to be collected. CognitiveMAP™ thus enables us to determine the “fitness level” of a Client’s cognitive abilities by comparing his Standardised Tests scores against the data for his peers. We can then identify which of the 5 Brain Pillars require enhancement and craft a brain fitness programme that addresses this need. back
Brain chemicals, or neuro-transmitters, such as dopamine and acetylcholine are released when a person is motivated and encouraged. These brain chemicals play a critical role in the formation of stronger and more resilient brain connections. back
