In this episode, I talk with Mark Tommerdahl about Brain Gauge, a tool designed to measure and train brain connectivity through precise fingertip vibrations. We discuss how it assesses foundational brain functions, how its exercises work like a gym for the brain, and the changes Mark has observed in people dealing with attention difficulties, stroke recovery, autism, dementia, concussion, and other neurological challenges.
