When we want to get fit, we go to the gym or do some exercise. But what about when we want to
improve our concentration? Then we need to exercise our brain! Here are the top five activities to
improve the way our brain works and help us develop better focus and concentration. Anyone can
try one and see!
Scientists say that we should do some crosswords or try sudoku. These types of puzzles
stimulate the brain because we have to solve clues or use logic to find the solutions. Also, we
should practise our strategic thinking by playing games like chess. According to the studies,
people can plan better in other areas of their life, if they play such strategic games. Playing
computer games is very popular these days. So in order to train our brain we can challenge
ourselves with one of the brain-training computer games. Once we try them, we won't want to
stop!
Research into brain shows that we should break our routine. We are creatures of habit and
we often follow the same routine every day, so the brain becomes lazy. If, for example, we try
going to school by a different route one day a week, or using a different type of transport, we can
make decisions and solve problems much faster.
In addition, certain types of food can help our brain stay healthy and work well. Proteins
are great for the brain so we should eat plenty of cheese, meat, fish and milk. The brain also needs
carbohydrates and some fat, and these come from fruit, vegetables and olive oil. Omega-3 is a
fantastic food for the brain. It can be found in fish. Remember, a balanced diet is essential for the
brain.
Also, we could start a new hobby, learn a language, take up a new sport. In fact, it does
not matter what we do. New activities stimulate the brain and expand the way the brain thinks.
We can also learn important or useful skills and meet new friends.
Clever people write down their ideas. They organise their thoughts and set goals for things
they want to do. Writing things down tells our brain it is producing good ideas, so it produces
more ideas and better ideas. This is a great way to improve our brain power.
