ADD/ADHD/LD are now considered first and foremost neurological
disorders. In these conditions, the brain is simply unable to produce
the right brain wave patterns to support sustained attention, as well as
other cognitive related tasks. As a result, individuals with ADD/ADHD/LD
simply cannot produce the necessary attention, unless they are very
interested in the subject (for instance, playing video or computer
games). They find it difficult to follow a conversation, read a book or
pay continuous attention in class. They become irritable and impatient,
then come up with different excuses why they cannot perform well
cognitively: "this is boring," I am busy," I don't like the teacher,"
and so on. Such excuses represent a subconscious way to cover up for the
cognitive inability. Deep inside, the child wants to be able to do well.
Sometimes they know they cannot do it, but are unwilling to admit. In
other cases, they do not have a clear awareness of the problem and
they feel they are lazy or incompetent, which can have a devastating
effect on their self esteem .

SharperBrain is the first and only program that can help fix the problem
once and for all. Designed by a Neuro-cognitive specialist, the program
goes to the very core of the problem and helps in rectifying the
neurological structures that are responsible for the problem.
-
The
program does not only deal with improving attention and focus, but also
helps in improving many other cognitive skills and abilities. (see the
"benefits"
section for the complete list.)
-
SharperBrain is the only completely content- free software program
available today. The reason this is so important is because content-
based programs (for instance, playing a game,) creates interest and
therefore do not offer a solution for situations in which the user has
no interest. In addition, the brain can more easily generalize a content
free based concept then one that is specific. SharperBrain does not
focus on what's interesting for the child, but what's important for
him/her.
-
SharperBrain has been thoroughly tested with individuals suffering from
attention deficits. The results have been remarkable.
-
SharperBrain doesn't just help in better coping with the problems. It
help resolving it. once resolved - there is no need to continue
and use the program (which is why the program is leased instead of
sold).
-
Some
children have noticed significant changes after using the program two or
three times only. Within a few weeks of using the program consistently
(3 to 5 times a week for about 20 - 25 minutes per session).
-
Until now
the only way to achieve similar results was to go for Neuro-feedback
sessions in a clinic - considered the only modality to permanently
resolve attentional problems. The downside of this modality is that the
child (or adult for that matter) has to go at least three times a week
to a clinic and get hooked up to an EEG machine to do the training.
Neuro-feedback can be quite expensive. A complete treatment program can
cost a few thousand dollars.
-
SharperBrain can be used at home, without the need to get hooked up to
an EEG machine. It was developed under rigorous testing using the latest
in EEG technology, and has proven to produce the necessary effects for a
fraction of the cost.
-
In
addition, SharperBrain offers additional benefits compared with
Neuro-feedback. The later deals mainly with sustained attention, whereas
SharperBrain helps in improving a long list of cognitive abilities. (see
the "benefits"
section for the complete list.)
-
SharperBrain is suitable for children from the age of 6 and up as well
as for adults. (With the exception of color-blinded individual).
-
The
program is complete. no need to buy extra modules for different
cognitive tasks. It has 36 levels that cover all necessary angles
associated with focus and attention. (note: there is an option for an
additional 18 levels, developed to create the highest level of focus,
attention and mental processing possible, but not necessary for all
basic cognitive skills).
-
SharperBrain is the only program that trains users to be able to offset
distractions. As a result, the child can effectively offset all types of
distractions while studying, in class or at home.
-
SharperBrain is the only program that emulates real life situations,
such as conversations, reading, listening to the teacher and absorbing
taught material, and so on. This emulation is done on a purely
neurological level. This is one of the features that make the program so
effective.
-
The
program has a built in one minute warm up session that a child can do
before homework or preparing for an exam, to quickly sharpen his/her
focus.
-
The
program incorporates graphs and stats to point out progress as well as
weak areas.
-
The
program is easy to use and requires no knowledge in computers.
-
For the first time ever, you
have an opportunity to correct a lifetime of frustration associated with
the inability to focus and concentrate well. SharperBrain will help you
develop attentional flexibility and dramatically enhance speed of
processing. You or your child will be able to learn better and faster,
all that at a very reasonable cost.
