Grow your brain
Did you know that
your brain can grow even after you are an adult? The brain grows by formation
of new neurons (brain cells) and this process is scientifically known as neurogenesis.
One need not to grow
the head as well when the brain grows because the more the brain grows the more
it folds in into itself, thus the more folds in the brain the bigger it is, and
the brighter the owner is considered to be.
It is also amazing to
know that brain cells grow like tree branches. When one thinks and does
positive things, with a right diet and proper rest, the brain cells grow like
healthy green tree branches. These in turn help in the secretion of proper
chemicals which keep the body healthy.
The following are
some of the things you can do to keep your brain growing:
ü Think positive
thoughts.
Positive thoughts help neurogenesis processes by producing healthy neurons. On
the other hand, negative thinking fosters neurons to grow which are not
healthy. These unhealthy neurons are almost like dried tree branches in
contrast to their counter parts which are like green and healthy tree branches.
Unhealthy tree branches produce toxic chemicals which renders the body
unhealthy in the long run.
ü
Use your head when doing simple calculations such as
simple additions, subtraction, multiplication and division. Avoid using
machines such as calculators for simple operations as these do not foster your
brain development.
ü
Play logical games such as Sudoku, crossword puzzles, jigsaw
puzzles, etc. these involve a lot of thinking thus enabling the process of
brain development.
ü Learn to do normal things in new ways. Learn a new route
to a common place without using GPRS; use a different hand when doing something
you are used to do with the other hand, etc. This will make the brain to grow
new cells which are associated with the new way of doing things.
ü Learn to memorize
common things
like your daily to-do-list, peoples’ numbers and peoples’ names. This means
development of the brain's part that is concerned with memory.
ü Develop and learn new
hobbies and interests.
A new interest means a new way of doing something new. Things like playing the
piano, embroidery and drawing/painting require development of new faculties in
the brain, which means neurogenesis.
It is very possible
to grow your brain and thus to become brighter by the day. Intellect can be
something people are born with, but it can also be developed.
