Todd Sampson, an ordinary Canadian living in Australia, wanted to discover the power of brain plasticity for himself. Not only did Todd discover the power of brain plasticity but he also put our brain training program BrainHQ to the test through the television program "Redesign My Brain" featured on TVO (TV Ontario).
I invite you to watch all three episodes of "Redesign My Brain" below, then give your own brain a good workout!
Episode-1 Make Me Smarter
Episode-2 Make Me Creative
Episode-3 Mind over Matter
If you have any questions, please let us know!
