middle age, memory
Submitted by Kitara R. Wilson on December 21, 2009 - 8:41am.
The more I step into this place of being open about early midlife celebrations, the more women I've noticed coming forward with their stories of frustration and loss.

A few weeks ago I reviewed Nintendo's "Brain Age" for the DS handheld and found it somewhat dull. Always on the lookout for fun and worthwhile brain exercise tools, this week I grabbed a copy of Nintendo's "Big Brain Academy" with the hope that a different approach might bring some fun into my mental workout.
So now that LifeTwo owns the two leading brain training tools for the DS (and, judging by Amazon's videogame bestseller list, the leading such titles on any platform), which would I rather use to work myself into a mental sweat? »more»

Nintendo's "Brain Age" has created an entirely new video game category: games for middle aged people worried about their brain health. This week Time magazine wrote that "toy and gaming companies are starting to court the boomer generation with products claiming to help sharpen memory and cognitive ability." How does the market leader stack up? To find out I subjected my brain to a rigorous Brain Age workout. »more»
