Default use your brain to change your age...on tv now

There's a show on now about brain health and brain training. Has anyone ever done this program? He was showing spect? Scans and it's cool what they are able to show. Anyone have one of these? The Doctor is Daniel Amen talking. I'll have to look this up more tomorrow. Interesting stuff.

Ongoing symptoms include: dizziness, blurred vision, light and noise sensitivities, cognitive problems, uncontrollable emotions/depression/anxiety, headaches (but they're getting better), mental and physical fatigue, difficulty communicating and sleep disturbances.

Currently seeing a fabulous Neuro Psychologist and vestibular physiotherapist and hoping to soon see a neuro ophthalmologist. I am currently doing 20 minute stationary bike rides daily, 20 minutes of meditating, 15 minutes of Lumosity and lots of resting. I have not been able to work or drive since the accident.

The things that have helped me the most since the accident are vestibular therapy, gel eye drops (for blurred vision, sensitivity and dryness), amitriptyline (10mg), and meditating. I am finally starting to see some slight improvements and am hopeful!

My brain WANTS to heal itself... I just have to let it and stop trying to get better!

Dr Amen is well know for his human potential/brain potential business. His protocol is oriented toward the wealthy who are eager to achieve as much as possible.

Default Amens supplements

Last week I was trying to read through the boards and figure out what supple mementos to order but it was giving me a headache. Decision making and comparing things seems to be areas I am struggling with. So I just went to his site and bought a bunch of stuff. I also hate going to stores now so that simplified things for me too. I know they are probably more expensive but the convenience was what I was looking for.
