In this day of financial uncertainty and need for a mental edge in order to pay the bills, consider 10 minutes a day of challenging your brain. This is good for all whether you have a type of brain related problem or you are wanting to stave off normal memory loss. If you can help someone who is literally losing their mind (see link:ALZ Article ), then it stands to reason that it should be good for you. But don't just take my word for it! Give it a try! Here are some free sites that I recommend:

NEW!: Luminosity, Personalized Brain Games
NEW!!: Brain Gym, Personalized
Third Age Games
Tips from Alzheimer's Association
