Areas of Support

Right/Left Hemisphere Assessment and Exercises

Each hemisphere offers distinct approaches to attention. At HemiLink, we develop and implement targeted exercises that optimize the strengths of both the right and left hemispheres, helping you achieve a balanced and enhanced attention span.
Distraction Identification & Reduction

Equally important to attention optimization is minimizing distractions. We help you identify what pulls your focus away and develop strategies to reduce or eliminate these distractions, allowing for more sustained and effective attention.
Emotional Regulation Techniques

Big emotions have the potential to create distraction and confusion. However, when harnessed correctly, emotions can also sharpen our focus and enhance our understanding. We will utilize emotional regulation techniques to help stabilize mood and optimize brain chemistry, allowing for improved attention and focus during tasks.
Nervous System Management

In the right situation, flight, fight, freeze, or fawn responses are essential nervous system functions. However, these states can sometimes arise at inappropriate times. When the fight or flight response is triggered too often or unnecessarily, it can lead to distraction and clouded judgment. At HemiLink, we focus on helping you identify and manage these nervous system states to restore balance and enhance cognitive clarity.
Long-Term Brain Health

Did someone say biohacking?! Tier II service includes deeper cognitive and physical health assessments, lab testing, nutritional guidance, and prescription or non-prescription interventions to support neurotransmitter function, brain plasticity, and mental clarity. This program is tailored for individuals seeking to optimize long-term cognitive health, manage attention deficits, and reduce the risk of cognitive decline.
Relationships

Our relationships play a significant role in attention and focus. They can either create stress, leading to distractions and negative brain chemistry or serve as sources of inspiration, boosting attention. Social connectedness is a key component of our attention training, helping to cultivate relationships that enhance focus and overall cognitive well-being.

Welcome to HemiLink

Hi, I am Makenna Francis, board certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC). HemiLink Attention Training is a passion project I've been developing for many years, driven by my deep interest in attention enhancement.

As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, one of the biggest complaints I hear about is that of suboptimal attention and problematic distractions. I wanted to create a sustainable, reliable, long-term solution to the attention deficit crisis—one that goes beyond temporary fixes and focuses on lasting cognitive improvement

I believe that attention is the most valuable cognitive currency we have. What we pay attention to and how we spend our attention will influence our every experience. Improving attention can lead to better decision-making, higher-quality interactions, and overall enhanced memory formation and retention. Attention, like any skill, can be developed and strengthened.

Whether you're striving to elevate your focus or reduce the risk of cognitive decline, HemiLink provides comprehensive, practical solutions for long-term cognitive health. The methods are designed to help elevate mental performance and safeguard your brain's vitality for years to come.
