Sharp Brains: Brain Fitness and Cognitive Health News

Neuroplasticity, Brain Fitness and Cognitive Health News

Carnivals All Around!

We are delighted to report on a num­ber of great car­ni­vals that have recently included arti­cles from Sharp­Brains.

Issue 12 of The Synapse came out this Sun­day on Dr. Deb­o­rah Serani’s blog. It fea­tures a num­ber of arti­cles on neu­ro­science top­ics includ­ing: brain cells and neural sub­strates, cog­ni­tive think­ing styles, Alzheimer’s, dream recall, and men­tal ill­ness. Alvaro’s post on the exec­u­tive func­tion of emo­tional self-regulation via biofeed­back is there — go check it out!

Bryan pro­files our inter­view on Trad­ing Psy­chol­ogy with Dr. Brett Steen­barger at the The Fes­ti­val of Invest­ing. Jake is host­ing the Car­ni­val of Great­ness. Sup­port a first time car­ni­val host by read­ing posts on every­thing from tips for achiev­ing goals and suc­cess, improv­ing your out­look, to posts about role mod­els. Be sure to read Alvaro’s posts on trad­ing per­for­mance and his inter­view with Dr. Brett Steen­barger, Asso­ciate Pro­fes­sor of Psy­chi­a­try and Behav­ioral Sci­ences at SUNY Upstate Med­ical Uni­ver­sity, active trader for over 30 years, for­mer Direc­tor of Trader Devel­op­ment for Kingstree Trad­ing, LLC, and author of The Psy­chol­ogy of Trad­ing: Tools and Tech­niques for Mind­ing the Mar­kets and Enhanc­ing Trader Per­for­mance: Proven Strate­gies From the Cut­ting Edge of Trad­ing Psy­chol­ogy.

The weekly Per­sonal Growth Car­ni­val on Bryan Fleming’s blog is where you can “read ideas peo­ple have learned to make their lives bet­ter”. Included top­ics are atti­tude, goal set­ting, and per­sonal growth. Look for Alvaro’s post!

And finally, check out the Car­ni­val of Fam­ily Life at Be a Good Dad where my post on danc­ing for brain and phys­i­cal fit­ness is posted. There are other posts on games and activ­i­ties with kids, read­ing and com­mu­ni­cat­ing, set­ting up a fam­ily busi­ness, romance on a bud­get, and many more.

Many thanks to all the hosts who put these car­ni­vals together! Happy reading!
