How do you keep your brain fresh?

Answer 1

In order to keep your brain "fresh" people should make sure that they use both their right and their left brains daily. Each brain has a different use, making each brain need different things to help keep them in tune. For example, your brain is like a piano, or any instrument for that matter, it needs tuning every once in a while to keep it working like new. The right brain is used for dealing with the intuitive and creative side of your life. It handles all your rememberance of symbols and images and face recognition. It also contains your imagination, beliefs and fantasy. The left brain is used for dealing with speech, reading, writing, math and science and rational, literal, and practical analysis. So ways to keep your brain fresh are things such as trying to find your way to a place you've never driven or walked to before, focusing your attention on a certain person or thing, or try doing something in either silence or with your eyes closed. If these are not things you enjoy or want to try you can do things such as soduko puzzles, word searches, color a picture, or play Scrabble with a friend. (These mainly focus on the left side of your brain though.) Sources used: * http://www.brainskills.co.uk/DifferenceBetweenLeftRightBrain.html * http://www.neurobics.com/exercise.html
