It’s a headline, innovative & primo EEG neurofeedback toy and the first of a wave of them to hit the market. This is includes Barbie (Mattel) Mindflex and the Emotiv hat. This paradigm-shaking new game monitors brainwave activity and allowing you the user to control a small ball moving through a 10 inch training tower using nothing but mental focus and concentration.
It’s good tech. You control a ping-pong ball by the power of your mind. No really. The main unit is a Star Wars branded base, liberally laced with red LEDs, out of which climbs a clear plastic tube more correctly termed the Jedi Training Tower. Inside this is the Jedi training sphere, which rises or falls in the Tower according to the power of the fan at its base, which blows it up there

Mind Toys has come across a pretty amazing new device gadget that fits into the category of Cognitive Optometry . Behavioural optometry (also known as “functional optometry”) is an expanded area of optometric practice that uses a holistic approach in the treatment of vision and vision information processing problems.[1] The practice of behavioural optometry incorporates various vision therapy methods and has been characterised as a complementary alternative medicine practice. The Eyeport is an electronic vision training system that claims to improve your visual performance. “Through a combination of sound, color and light, the Eyeport optimizes the ability of the eyes to aim, track, focus and work together as a team,” according to the company’s site. Invented by Dr. Jacob Liberman and cleared by the FDA, the Eyeport certainly looks strange, but it’s supposed to be easy to use. (Just don’t poke your eye out.)

Brain Training
It’s common knowledge that a proper exercise regimen can do wonders for the body. Only recently, however, have psychologists and gerontologists aggressively applied the same principle to the mind.
Among people who work with older adults, the concept of “cognitive fitness” has become a buzzword to describe activities that stimulate underutilized areas of the brain and improve memory. Proponents of brain-fitness exercises say such mental conditioning can help prevent or delay memory loss and the onset of other age-related cognitive disorders.

If you do what you always do, you get what you always get.
Wherever you go, your mental baggage travels with you.
To achieve goals, you need to address your current internal dialogue and wheel of accompanying thoughts and replace them with new positive models to enhance your life experience
You need to invest a little time to produce a desired outcome; it’s difficult to succeed in life whilst multi-tasking; jealousy, rage, frustration, stress, anxiety & resentment.

In a moment I’m going to ask you to form a few resolves, not giant, small enough that you can entertain achieveing them but big enough to make a splash in the lake of your mind
Are your ready to reel out a series of resolves, now what we are looking for is the echoes from the deep caves in your mind, where your mini-me parts and guerilla outposts are.
OK?
So recite a resolve and then wait a minute to see if there is an echo, it might make a sound, a picture or even a shudder.
If a particular resolve annoys you or creates internal feedback, you need to track it right back
Look for traces of unworthiness and ask yourself what function the feedback or voice serves
Does the voice come from a need for safety and not changing, a niche to avoid the responsibility of your resolve, a sense of guilt? What you will need to give up for this limiting belief to go?
Are you prepared to make those changes?
