Trends: A treadmill for the brain
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.When it comes to work-outs, it's not just your abs that need attention. A new generation of health clubs are springing up that work the mind.
Vibrant Brains ( www.vibrantbrains.com), recently opened in San Francisco to offer group mind-exercise activities via a network of computer workstations, while in Florida, Sparks of Genius ( www.sparksofgenius.com) provides bespoke mental work-outs, assessing which areas clients need to work on – from processing speed and multi-tasking to memory.
If that feels a little far away (although it's only a matter of time before it arrives here), check out Vivity Labs' recently launched Fitbrains website ( www.fit brains.com), which is filled with games that work your concentration, memory, spatial and cognitive skills.
