Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exercising your brain is just as important as working out. If you don't exercise your brain, it will atrophy, at least the part your not using. 'Use it or lose it' is as true of our mental faculties as it is of our physical abilities. Fortunately, most of us do get plenty of stimulation in our daily lives, jobs, leisure activities and relationships. The problem is that our brain stimulation is often not very balanced, and that imbalance can affect your sense of well-being. This book provides exercises for all the major brain functions at several different levels. Inside you will be able to: test your brain fitness level, develop right brain association and creative ability, and improve your logic and numbers skills using left-brain workouts invented by scientists.

Book excerpt: Until recently, it was believed that as the years pass, the brain inevitably deteriorates in all of its many functions. Now, according to Dr. Arthur Winter, a neurosurgeon and the director of the New Jersey Neurological Institute, studies show that the brain can continue to develop and repair itself, even in old age, and that with simple daily exercises, the proper diet, and the right kind of mental stimulation, you can learn to strengthen and maintain your brain's power to near maximum capacity throughout your lifetime. Brain Workout is a complete regimen with dozens of easy-to-follow exercise in each chapter and tips that include: Aiding memory Stimulating and improving sight, hearing, and the sense of smell, touch, and taste How certain foods affect us mentally and emotionally Medicines that improve brain capacity and chemicals that dull brain function The importance of oxygen to the brain, and what exercise will increase its flow

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taking care of your brain is just as beneficial as taking care of the rest of your body. Research has shown that training games help improve memory, concentration, problem-solving skills, processing speed, creativity, and reasoning. The key to such exercise is to constantly learn and regularly challenge your brain’s capabilities with new tasks. Regularly doing series of short, varied tasks will keep your thinking faculties focused and flexible. Five-Minute Brain Workout contains a wide variety of games and puzzles for people who enjoy words and language. There are ten examples of the same kind of game or puzzle with a wide variety of types of each. While the puzzles have specific answers, the games do not, which means you can continue to develop your creativity by doing them more than once and coming up with different answers. And there are enough puzzles and games for a year’s worth of challenging your mind. The book’s contents can be used in any number of ways: to challenge yourself or simply have fun or as a competition against time or other people. These exercises work in many settings: home, work, schoolrooms, training and therapy sessions, and as an icebreaker at social gatherings.
