Attention Program
A single attention track for adults 60+: a calm-alert baseline, the three attention phases, then focus carried back into daily life.
What's included
- A single Attention track designed for adults 60+
- Five modules across the attention phases, with the Fragments puzzle (L1–L5) as the spine
- 9 guided sessions, about one a week, plus a short daily home practice (~10–12 min)
- Runs in the browser with no hardware required
- Deliverable clinician-, caregiver-, or software-guided
How it works
The program runs as a single attention track for adults 60+. It opens by settling a calm-alert baseline, then works the three attention phases (selective, switching, and divided) through rising Fragments puzzle levels, before building a metacognitive "catch" for a wandering mind and carrying focus back into everyday tasks. Weekly guided sessions introduce and calibrate each technique; the real work is the short daily home practice between them, with light check-ins to keep the habit going.
- A calm-alert baseline is designed to steady arousal before any phase-specific work
- Rising Fragments levels target selective, switching, and divided attention in turn
- A metacognitive "catch" reframes mind-wandering as noticing and returning, not failing
- Weekly touchpoints plus daily home practice are built to sustain adherence
Program · 5-module series
Five modules across the attention phases, from a calm-alert baseline to working memory, with the Fragments puzzle (L1–L5) as the spine.
Module 1 · Entry
Sustained Attention
Orient the learner and build a sustainable calm-alert baseline before any phase-specific training: a self-attention rating, the Fragments L1 rotation puzzle, and Firefly Breath.
Module 2 · Core
Selective Attention
Lock onto the target and let the rest fade, at Fragments L2, with full guided support at a moderate pace before it is gradually withdrawn.
Module 3 · Core
Switching/Alternating Attention
Shift attention between cues on demand at Fragments L3, at a gentle pace tuned for age-related processing-speed changes.
Module 4 · Core
Divided Attention
Hold two things at once at Fragments L4, with low-pressure framing: the attempt is the training, not a perfect score.
Module 5 · Advanced
Working Memory
Keep information in mind while the demands stack up, with a working-memory challenge layered on top of the attention work.
