Know Your Brain, Take Action To Increase Brain Power

By Sandy Miller


The mind is the most essential part in humans because this is the center where control over emotion and thinking logically takes place. Human mind's capacity normally deteriorates with aging process but this is not a good reason to generalize those who are in the process of aging will fall behind in memorizing. That is why measures should be taken to increase brain power.

At the back part of the head there exists Hindbrain that has main functions in initiating basic and primary human's instincts. Classified in this are survival, mating, and respiration. This system is made up of Spinal Cord, Medulla Oblongata, The Pons, and Cerebellum. Close to it is Limbic System whose main role is to initiate memory. It is also called emotional mind. Spontaneity and creativity are initiated here. Limbic System fall into The Amygdala, The Hippocampus, The Hypothalamus, and The Thalamus.

The Neocortex is considered the most advanced since in this part rational thinking occurs. Neocortex is the largest and takes up to two thirds of human mind. Scientists divide this part into left and right hemispheres. Theoretically the right controls human's sense of art such as drawing, music, and others, while the left functions best in thinking logically, reasoning, languages, and mathematical problem solving.

Increase mental power and you should find out that it has been widely endeavored by many people and this takes various forms of measures. The activities range from simple daily routine to highly ruled and prescribed practice. There are basically two types of ways to increase brain power. They are nutrition and non-nutrition techniques.

In nutrition measures, you need to consume certain food that contains Omega 3. Such food as fish, nuts, and kinds of seeds are considered in this group. Sugar needs to consume in proper portion as excessive sugar in the body will harm your health. Herbs are also suggested to stimulate memory, increase concentration, and raise mental alertness.

Techniques applied on non-nutrition can be in the form of doing regular meditation, taking deep breath, and finishing easy quiz found in printed materials. Scientists suggest writing is the most effective way to try since it involves reproductive competence of individuals. It is said by writing you can produce works and sharpen your mind.

It isn't that easy to increase brain power. But, no matter how hard it is, you have to try because smart mind highly determines the quality the way you deal with other people and the things you have done. Just take the simplest method for your own by merely thinking positively of whatever you face.
