Fortunately, the research is finding that strengthening the brain may be accomplished without too much difficulty, in ways that are accessible to the average person. The methods may even be fun and rewarding.
Activities might include:
- Picking up a new skill (for example, learning a language or a musical instrument can stimulate corresponding brain areas)
- Physical activity (can increase blood flow)
- Volunteering (teaching, for example, can refine cognitive abilities)
- Napping (sleep is refreshing and can help the brain organize better)
- Eating certain foods (for example, blueberries, nuts, green, leafy vegetables, and foods with anti-oxidants)
- Increasing social activities (relating to friends can keep stress levels under control)
Of course, though this research is good news for most, the findings are general and may not apply to any specific individual. Consulting with a medical doctor would be in order before engaging a new diet or strenuous activity.
