We have partnered with a nationally recognized leader in the cognitive enhancement programs to create a computerized brain fitness center using My Vigorous Mind programming. My Vigorous Mind Suite™ is web based software dedicated to over all development of cognitive skills including improving attention, perception, memory, learning, and reasoning. This proven innovative software is designed for seniors who wish to actively maintain a vital, agile and vigorous mind. These fun and proven mental gymnastic programs are extended to our seniors.
A recent study by Wilson in the journal Neurology in November of 2007 showed that people who are cognitively inactive are 2.6 times more likely to develop Alzheimer’s disease than cognitively active people. The researchers also found that frequent cognitive activity was associated with reduced incidence of mild cognitive impairment and less rapid decline in cognitive functions.
Finally, in addition to the preventive and protective role of continued mental activity, some of the tasks in My Vigorous Mind have an immediate effect on daily functioning, as they practice vocabulary and refresh computation skills used in everyday life. My Vigorous Mind also provides opportunities to socialize and interact with others, reduce stress, and maintain a cognitively challenging lifestyle. Furthermore, My Vigorous Mind enables the user to experience progress and a sense of accomplishment. In doing so, it promotes a positive sense of well-being, a positive emotional state that enhances cognitive stability as one ages.
