Have you experienced difficulty concentrating in most of the things of your daily life? Or maybe you’re having a tough time remembering things like names of people you meet? On top of things, you are having trouble getting through that long list of things to do. But how do you keep your brain in tip-top shape? Exercise, of course!
Exercise isn’t just for your physical health, it is for your mental health, too. Brain exercises improve memory and brain function, and they can be quick and easy to do.
Below you’ll find 5-minute brain exercise to perform each day to strengthen your brain and improve your memory, concentration and brain function.
5-Minute Head Tapping
When the mind is engaged too intensively with work or with too many thoughts, it’s common for the head to feel overheated. This is caused by lack of good energy and blood circulation. If it continues, thoughts will not cease and your focus level will drop significantly. In this case, try gentle, specific tapping to open energy points on the head. This head tapping exercise will supply oxygen and energy to your brain and clear your mind.
How to Practice Head Tapping:
1. Gently tap your head with your fingers. Breathe out all the active oxygen and heat that has accumulated from the stress. Smiling brightly while tapping will help oxygen flow even better to the brain.
2. On your forehead tap the frontal lobe, which controls memory and thinking skills, and imagine ideas springing from your head.
3. Tap the parietal lobe on the top of your head and imagine that the nerve functions and somatic senses of the parietal lobe are improving.
4. Tap the sides of your head near your ears and imagine your hearing abilities becoming clearer and stronger.
5. Tap the occipital lobe on the back of your head and imagine your vision improving and your eyes becoming clearer.
6. Tap the cerebellum at the bottom of the back of your head and imagine your athletic and hand-eye coordination and sense of balance improving.
7. Tap all around your head once again and then sweep your head with the palms of your hands; your brain will feel refreshed!
Blood supply is extremely important to the brain since it carries the oxygen essential for healthy neuron activity. If there is energy stagnation, however, the brain’s blood circulation can be hindered; the majority of intractable brain diseases, such as cerebral hemorrhage, apoplectic dementia, Alzheimer’s, and Parkinson’s, are due to a lack of blood circulation in the brain and a corresponding loss of neurons.
