NEUROBICS (MENTAL EXERCISES) EXERCISES FOR YOUR BRAIN Neurobics are mental exercises, which are used to enhance the brain’s performance. The term neurobics was coined by late neurobiologist Lawrence Katz and Manning Rubin in their book KEEP YOUR BRAIN ALIVE. Chemicals that encourage growth of new dendrites and neurons in the brain are produced when any unusual sensory stimulation are done by us or with activities which are non-routine. Routine actions are done by individuals largely unconsciously which require less activity in the brain, and therefore exercise it less. With the help of neurobics exercises, we can stimulate the brain. They result in a mind that’s fit to meet various challenges like remembering a name, staying creative in your work or mastering a new computer program. Some neurobiologists suggest that neurobics can slow aging of the brain. HOW TO USE NEUROBICS FOR VERY GOOD BRAIN POWER? 1.
