Most people cannot use their full potential, because they are limited by (mental & emotional) straitjackets. They are overwhelmed, feel not good enough and are not making a difference. This Brain Sickness is the consequence of living someone else’s life. You can dismantle the straitjackets by unleashing and using your uniqueness. Brain Fitness trains you to live your own life. Your wellbeing, performance and creativity will significantly improve.
