Discovering ourselves



TRAIN YOUR BRAIN
The best activities for stimulating the growth of brain cells are those that inspire nerve cells to activate additional circuits. Try these simple tricks
  1. Practise using both hands at once. Bounce two balls, stir two cups of tea. Try throwing two wads of paper at a basket, one overhand and one underhand simultaneously.
  2. Think up 25 uses for a toothpick or elastic band.
  3. Do math problems in your head instead of on a calculator.
  4. Decide to learn one new word a day.
  5. Write a set of instructions for an everyday task, such as tying your shoelaces.
  6. Use your non-dominant hand to brush your teeth, eat or make-up. Or pick things up with your feet.
  7. Close your eyes and move around your home. Concentrate on how you sense the presence of furniture or other people. Navigate by listening, smelling, even feeling different air temperatures.
  8. Look inside your wardrobe for a few minutes, then shut the door. Make a descriptive list of everything inside. How much did you remember? You can try this with a painting or photograph.
  9. Shake up one routine each day. Take a new route to home, a new sport instead of your normal workout.

  • DO U KNOW WHY IS THE BODY WARM?
    Why is the Body Warm?
    In order for the body to carry on its functions efficiently it needs energy. This energy is obtained through a process called combustion. The fuel for the combustion is the food that we take in. The result of the combustion is mild, exactly regulated warmth. There are substances in the body whose job it is to combine oxygen with the fuel in an orderly, regulated way.
    The body maintains an average temperature regardless of what is going on outside. This is done by the centre in the brain known as the temperature centre, which consists of three parts: a control centre which regulates the temperature of the blood, one that raises the temperature of the blood when it drops, and a third that cools the blood when the temperature is too high.
