We often don't notice that visual processing is weakening. It happens so gradually that we're barely aware. But the net result is that it takes us longer to spot things around us, which can be a real problem when the thing you don't see in time is a skateboarder careening towards you, a key piece of information in a document you're reading, or even just a play at the basketball game you're attending. Weaker visual processing also means you can't remember as well: if the brain doesn't see something...

In this documentary, Michael Merzenich of The University of California, San Francisco, and his colleagues share their scientifically based set of brain exercises. They have named these exercises...

Working memory provides an essential buffer between our conscious thoughts and our impulsive reactions. When this buffer is compromised or overloaded we revert to our non-conscious impulses.
