4 Daily Exercises To Boost Your Brain Power

in health •  6 years ago 

1.Switch Hands - If you are right-handed, try using your left hand to do things like brushing your teeth, eating, and using your computer mouse. Using your non-dominant hand results in increased brain activity. This can be very hard at first which is why it gives your brain a good workout.

2.Eat With Chopsticks - This will force you to eat mindfully which is good for your brain, digestion and calorie consumption. (If you’re already good at this, use your non-dominant hand instead.)

3.Do Chores with Your Eyes Closed - When taking a shower, washing your hair, or sorting laundry, try doing it with your eyes closed. This will force your brain to use new neural pathways. Obviously, don’t do anything with your eyes closed that could put you or others in danger.

4.Read Books Aloud - Take turns reading and listening to a book with your significant other, a friend, or a child. If that’s not feasible, alternate reading with listening to audio books. This engages the imagination in a different way. One of the earliest demonstrations of brain imaging clearly showed three distinct brain regions lighting up when the same word was read, spoken, or heard.
