The Calming App app for iPhone and iPad

The Calming App is like a health club for your brain, except its way easier than lifting weights or hitting the treadmill. :)

Recent research developments in neuroscience point to ways we can relieve stress and even become smarter by performing very simple mental tasks that redirect the energy in our brain away from the emotional center and to the calmer regions.

Its simple. You dont need to learn anything. And the very minute you begin, it begins to work.

How simple is it? Like 2+2, literally. Its that simple. Run through the single digit equations on the app and youll not only calm down, but the more you do it, the more "in shape" your brain will get.

Just like physical exercise, these exercises will exercise your brain and it will get faster and faster at retrieving the answers, which will indicate higher and higher functioning levels of the region of your brain responsible for decision making and what is called "executive function" in neuroscience parlance.

For those interested in a more complete explanation of the science of it all, there is a good description and discussion forum to come on DreamskyFarm.com

For those who have heard enough, just head over to the exercise page and give it a try.

You dont need to be stressed to use it. Many people use it in anticipation of stress, like just before a performance or an important meeting. Its a good way to deflect the jitters because its all about where that brain energy is going. With these exercises the energy will be going right where you need it most.

So when youre in a melt down or just feeling anxious or just making it part of your morning ritual before heading off on the day, break out The Calming App for a few minutes and youll be that much more prepared for what the day brings.

All the very best,
