"In such a short time span I am seeing the radical, accelerated improvement in my memory and other cognitive deficits"
After a severe traumatic brain injury left Amanda struggling with memory and cognitive deficits, Jim's story inspired them to pursue healing. Through the Quest, Amanda is now encoding short-term memories into long-term ones for the first time since the injury.
Before this Super Brain Quest, I struggled with memory, attention, concentration and creativity deficits that were a result of a severe TBI I suffered back in 2022. I also suffered from hippocampal seizures that had a huge impact on my cognitive processes. After hearing Jim's story with his TBI, it inspired me to tackle my memory and cognitive deficits head on. I thought that if Jim could do it, heal and teach all over the world, then surely I could heal too! The healing I am encountering with my hippocampus and other cognitive deficits is absolutely incredible! For the first time since my injury, I am encoding short-term memories into long-term memories! Even dreaming about the lessons, so I know its being encoded. The radical, accelerated improvement I am seeing in my memory and other cognitive deficits in such a short time span is a success story for the books! I am beyond grateful to Jim for developing and teaching this quest because it is going to have a life altering impact! I am a Super Brain Superhero!!!
