Stage 3 is much tougher ie seems to require different brain capabilities than stage 1 and stage 2. It was tough going. it seemed to last forever but actually took about the same time as my other sessions! I really think this is helping..have been noticing changes in how I observe and respond to others and it seems to make conversing a lot more fluid and natural…or my wishful thinking:)

Hi,
If I miss a few days of training, is it worth doing a few more sessions for the next day possible?
Will this help or just be too much?
Many Thanks,
Ed

Felt worse about performance but performed better than yesterday! certainly been feeling more focused in my everyday living despite only having used the training for 3 days! paying more attention to visual cues which means my aural cues, which were unfailingly good, have gone down. Overall performance has improved though.

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone had any advice on how to create the perfect serene environment for maximum concentration.
At the moment, I switch off the lights, turn on two aromatherapeutic candles and put the screen on “full screen”.
Is this an effective way of training or is it bad for my eyes?
I’d love to hear your methods and what you find to be the best way to get the most out of your training.
regards,
John Chalmers.

Hi,
I’ve just done my first session of stage 3. I kept fluctuating between n=3 and n=2. As I progressed through the session, I noticed it became harder to concentrate and I certainly became almost more confused (n=2 seemed harder to do even though I got them all correct for most of them). It was somewhat hypnotic.
Is this normal and is it a good sign……..or have I just worn myself out?
Many Thanks
Ed

felt good, had a hard physical workout , came back to brain train. felt focused, then out and in, here and there. but overall, felt pretty good. The results are GREAT. still loving it. it’s funny how many people training their bodies, but when I ask do they train their brain, they look at me like, uh…nope. it’s common sense. you don’t use it, you’ll lose it. Onward and Up. lost to accomplish in the near future and this new brain training is a must for me to reach incredible heights. Create a Brilliant day, people.

YES! i went to a new level. I was able to stick to n3 for a bit and then bounced to n4 for a bit. WOW! my brain was on fire. serious training today. I can feel this working so well. I even finished another book, and zipping through one after the other. My wife is amazed at all the reading i’m doing. I told her at age 50, i’m playing catch up. it feels so good. Thank you Martin and Mind Sparke. wow. what a difference. I’m sleeping better, more focused. totally different frame of mind than before i started this. my writing has gone through the writer’s block. i’m ecstatic. I was getting bummed because stage 3 was tough and today, well actually it was yesterday had a slight breakthrough and now today…BOOYAH! YES! Thank you GOD! I feel like a million bucks.
