Description

Brain health is a critical aspect of overall health. It underlies your ability to focus, communicate, problem-solve and live a productive life. Because the brain controls so much of daily function, it is arguably the single most valuable organ.


—SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN TECHNOLOGY—

Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) neurofeedback detects changes in the brain’s local blood flow and oxygenation in response to neural activation.

Mendi’s fNIRS high-fidelity signals are processed with proprietary algorithms to create simple, visually comprehensible, and easy-to-learn local feedback signals.

Mendi headband fNIRS sensors are placed over the forehead and measure oxygenated blood flow to the prefrontal cortex (PFC), a brain region that plays a key role in the mental processes of Executive Function such as focus, working memory, emotional processing, and decision-making. fNIRS neurofeedback is similar to weight training for the PFC - with repeated training lasting structural and functional neuroplasticity will occur. Because it is a form of neural exercise, Mendi neurofeedback training is perfectly safe and proven effective and its benefits are enduring.


—MENDI BRAIN HEALTH MODEL—

Mendi's brain health model combines neurofeedback training with behavioural science to help you achieve a healthier brain. By diligently committing to Mendi's neurofeedback training and in-app recommended brain boosters, you will contribute to sharpening your mental acuity which includes: deep focus, attention, cognitive flexibility, self-control, emotion regulation, and motivation.


—REGULAR PRACTICE IS KEY—

Excellent brain training results are achieved through consistent and habitual training. We recommend users practice three times a week for six to eight weeks to experience optimal results.

Neurofeedback that is not out of reach

I suffer from major depression, anxiety and recently been diagnosed with ADHD. I bought this band hoping it could help alleviate some of the stuck feelings I have each and everyday. I believe Mendi has been a positive addition to my routine, especially if I can get myself to stick with it. It’s very easy to just try it out and start and I have had no major issues with it. So far so good! Thank you for creating something that is within reach, especially in the neurofeedback world!

Some things I do wish is seeing more data related to what my brain or blood flow may be doing. I’m a very data oriented person so, any data for me to observe and utilize would be beneficial. Also health kit syncing would be awesome. I’d love to be able to give a result set to a Dr. or Psychologist!

Feedback for the devs

Hello! Thank you for your continued work on the app. I look forward to seeing it expand with more content and different games. I have a couple issues and suggestions:

I dislike the chime tone. It reminds me of casinos and I end up turning my volume all the way off to avoid it. A variety of tones to choose from or the option to turn off the chimes while still having the music would be great.
The visual display that comes up after a session rarely displays the Mendi score at this point. I have the most recent update. I usually receive a message instead to do a session or swipe to see my history. I can still see the individual metrics below, but the inconsistency and not knowing how to compare with previous results makes me less enthusiastic to use the app and has led to gaps in training. It seems to post the results twice, actually now that I look at it again, but the date is inaccurate. I trained today but not yesterday, however today’s results are displayed with both yesterday’s and today’s dates, yesterday having the visual Mendi score and today having the message to do a session or swipe left

If nothing else, this device helps you train your positive thinking muscles and to let go and overcome your negative thinking patterns! When the ball starts to fall, your negative thinking really kicks in and this is a great tool to help notice when it does and to try different thoughts out. I’ve been using mendi for about one year now and I am convinced my day turns out better when I use mendi. Typically use it once a day for a 10min session. Using it is almost like an active meditation in that you seem to do better with a light concentration rather than willful concentration. When I try to “will” the ball up, it doesn’t seem to work to well. But when I focus on a specific spot on my body and relax my breathing, it seems to rise better. I dont know why that is or if it is unique to me.
But I like using mendi, and I like the “Journeys “ section they added. Winnerminds has some good meditations to go along with mendi.
I recommend anyone getting it.
