(www.livelywomen.com) — I don’t know about you, but I’m starting to think I’m getting stupider as I get older. And then I found Lumosity, which is a rocking-fun Web-based mind stimulation tool (read: games!), and I’m starting to perk up again, too. You know you want it! (Warning: It’s seriously addictive — but there’s a timer that will stop you after a certain amount of play time.)
About the Prize
As I said, it’s Web-based tool that’s a blast to play. I found it fun, challenging, and yes, totally addictive. They recommend 1 session (30 minutes) per day 3-5 times a week. Here’s more about Lumosity in their own words:
Did you know that the human brain starts slowing down as early as age 30? The good news is that you can speed it up, and improve even your most basic cognitive abilities at any age. Keep your brain performing at its best with Lumosity, a brain training program consisting of engaging brain games and exercises developed by some of the leading neuroscientists in the country.
Lumosity users have experienced:
* Clearer and quicker thinking

* Increased alertness and awareness
* Elevated mood

I was looking everywhere one day for my keys. I ended up using my spare set, because I didn’t end up finding them. About a week later, I finally found them. They were in the freezer! How in the world does that happen?
Hi, I think I need Lumosity because I have had this page open for days and I keep forgeting to leave a comment. Usually contests are over by the time I remember to enter them.
Thank you
I have found when I get up to go get something, as soon as I stand up, I forget what I wanted. I will stand and turn in circles. I feel like a doggy.
I have discovered that more and more often I will get up and go running upstairs or downstairs to get something and when I get there I have no idea what I was there for. I go back where I started and then I remember and have to go back to the stairs all over. I’m not liking that.
