Mental Exercises

[Bobby]

I am assuming that for most members here at excel male, including myself; our primary priority in life revolves around our physical health and well being. In addition to physical health, I believe cognitive health is also part of the whole picture. I came across an advertisement in Nat. Geo magazine for a site that offers exercises to improve various aspects of mental function (problem solving, speed and accuracy, spacial awareness, memory, etc.) It is actually part of a research effort called The Human Cognition Project. There is a monthly fee to join the site if you want to start the training program. The exercises are interesting, fun and challenging. They claim that by participating in these exercises, you will improve in all areas of cognition. Not sure if this is true or if the site in reality is self serving, with the participants serving as "Guinea Pigs" for their research project.

In any case, thought I would post the link for anyone who is interested in not only in physical care but in mental and intellectual care as well.

Mental effect has direct connection with physical health. It is important to have stress-free mind.

Stress is not good for brain so it should be avoided. It is good to do exercise that is helpful to maintain physical fitness and mental health. Yoga is best exercise for both purposes.
