A fascinating course to do!” – Wendy\, Ashburton  \n\n  \n\nThis was a stimulating course with strategies I was easily able to process and use on a regular basis. It reminded me of ways to slow down and de-stress but be stimulated. – Lynda\, Geraldine\n\n					\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				WHAT OUR STUDENTS SAY\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					“I think focus-connect-rehearse says it all for me. I met a man a few days ago and he was actually admiring my bike. We ended up chatting and he told me his wife was Sue and he was Neil. Bingo!” \nBevan\, Auckland\, NZ“I had an opportunity to practice remembering names at a social gathering on Friday where we met a lot of new people. Being an inquisitive person I found it easier to probe into people’s names rather than weave a story around them. For instance I was introduced to a lady called Sheryl and asked her if she was Sheryl or Cheryl. By concentrating on people’s names and repeating them as soon as possible I was able to remember most people I met\, even differentiating between an Annette and a Lynette so was quite pleased.” \nMoyra\, Auckland NZ“Feel encouraged\, very hopeful of improving memory.  Stimulated.  Had excellent teacher\, many wonderful laughs\, much to learn.” \nPat“Jude was so inspiring. Fantastic course – I am sorry it has to come to an end!” \nCarol\, Auckland“This has been such a reassuring course – great to know there are lots of ways I can keep my brain active and sharpen my memory.” \nSue Crozier\, Auckland\, NZ“It is an extremely stimulating and useful course at any age or stage.  I like the follow-up emails which remind me to keep up the things I’ve learnt.” \nJane B\, NZ“I enjoyed this course as I mixed with others\, learnt what I can and can’t do well and know what I need to practice more.  Thank you for your energy in delivering the course\, Jessie.  I find the book invaluable.” \nCarol“The course was fun and well presented. I found myself looking forward to each class and was very pleased when I got the opportunity to catch up on one class that I was unable to attend at the time.” \nJane“Brainfit was an enjoyable way to understand and learn about my brain and memory. Highly Recommend!” \nCarmen\, Auckland“Very fulfilling and engaging course. Excellent presentations that were relevant to everyday happenings” \nGlenys\, Auckland“The course has been so enjoyable and it’s with real enthusiasm that I leave each week to test my knowledge.  Absolutely inspiring.  It’s like eating something delicious and wanting more.” \nMary\, Northland\, NZ“I really enjoyed the course and the calm and gentle way you led us – thank you very much.” \nScott\, RiverheadI have gained a lot of knowledge working alongside Brainfit. The knowledge learnt paired up with application has been life changing. Small steps is all that I had to start with but the more I practiced the better I became. And It is interesting\, in hindsight to recognise that\, for me\, that cloak of reluctance and a sense of ‘can’t be bothered’ followed me round for a while with some games and cognitive exercises. But I remained resilient with one foot in front of the other\, and the outcome was immensely rewarding. For example\, I had never done sudoku because I considered it too hard. I do two a day now because I find it enjoyable. Merging is my new word for just adding an exercise to the equation when waiting for the washing machine to finish. Standing in a line memorising interesting facts etc. \nNeuroplasticity\, the brain’s ability to adapt and change\, is around us every day. That is an amazing opportunity . High five to the brain and to you for practising. \nMary\, West CoastGreat to know there is so much hope to keep my brain healthy. I loved it! \n  \nMargaret\, Auckland“It is an extremely stimulating and useful course at any age or stage. I like the follow-up emails which remind me to keep up the things I’ve learnt.” \nAngela\, Very Helpful. A great investment in my wellbeing \n“The course has made a difference already.  Not just remembering things I need to do\,  but motivation for the act of doing them. Today I contacted 2 friends whose birthday it is. I usually remember but don’t necessarily act upon it. The relief of doing this\, instead of having to remember again another day is wonderful. You made important stuff such fun.”\nMargaret\, Feilding NZ“A revelation! What a wake up call and an exciting view of the new possibilities ahead of me.” \nSally\, Auckland“I have struggled with cognitive issues as I have advanced in years\, it has really worried me. Having been in Ina Meeten’s class in Blenheim\, I am a lot more confident that I can look forward to many more years without “losing my marbles”!! I now have a real purpose in life\, and I think I can help others as well. Thank you.” \nBen Wickham\, Blenheim NZ“These classes have helped me find specific areas I need to work on to help with my concussion-related injury. Thank you so much” \nAngelique\, Christchurch
