Discover brain power. Writer A.N. Wilson wrote, "Brain power improves by brain use, just as our bodily strength grows with exercise." As important as it is to hit the gym or take that daily walk, it is equally important to exercise your brain. Of course, reading is a natural go to, but there are other things as well. Discover what you enjoy that challenges your brain. If numbers are your thing Sudoku might be right up your alley. If you are a word person, like me then a crossword puzzle can help shake the cobwebs out of your brain. For a music lover, discovering a new instrument may be the perfect choice for you. Learning a new language, learning how to knit or crochet, or learning how to play a new game are all ways to strengthen the neurological pathways of your brain. The old adage,
"Use it or lose it," holds true for your brain as well.
Challenge: Make a list of the type of things you find fun; words, numbers, music, games, languages, crafts to name a few. Choose a category and jot down three possibilities. Choose one and let the discovery begin.
