Exercises that activate brain activity by 100%

kinesiology exercises developed a lot - I took away from them only those that are easy to carry in a sitting position, including while working on the computer.

And the fact that they do help, I have no doubt drop, otherwise I would have long ago abandoned them, and has for a long time to resort to them on a daily basis, the benefit they are simple and do not require time-consuming.

These exercises can be performed both adults and children, they stimulate, tone, relieve fatigue, heaviness in the head, help to cope with unwanted currently sleepiness, sharpen focus and memory, as well as significantly increase the ability to concentrate on the job.

Kinesiology - the science of the development of mental abilities and achieve physical fitness through movement exercises. It includes a combination of theoretical and practical knowledge of naturopathy, physical therapy, acupuncture, chiropractic, Oriental medicine, homeopathy and so on. D.

With the help of kinesiology methods strengthened health, optimized basic mental processes (memory, attention, thought, speech, hearing, imagination, perception), increased mental capacity, improves psycho-emotional state.

Exercise "hooks"

To relieve stress, calm the nervous system, focus and quickly restore the psycho-emotional balance - you need to sit on a chair, legs crossed, resting the ankle of the left foot at the ankle of the right leg.

Then cross your arms, putting his right wrist on his left wrist, and then connect the fingers in the lock, so that the thumb of his right hand turned over the left thumb.

Unscrew joined hands in front of chest lock "inside out" to linked fingers were directed upwards. Look right, look up, tip of the tongue is pressed against the upper palate (it is possible to inhale pressed against the hard palate tip of the tongue, its relaxing on the exhale). Sit in this position for 1-5 minutes until the yawn or sufficiency to sensations.

This technique (it can also be performed standing or lying down) only at first glance seems simple and straightforward.

Kinesiologists say that with such systems cross, arms, legs and fingers there are complex processes that lead to balanced operation of motor and sensory centers like each hemisphere of the brain, and the midbrain, which is located directly above the hard palate.

When this is achieved the union of emotions and thought processes (strengthening hemispheric integration), leading to the most effective work (training) and respond to what is happening.

Exercise "Mirror Painting"

Put on the table a sheet of paper. Take in each hand with a pencil or felt-tip pen. Start painting with both hands simultaneously mirror-symmetric patterns, letters, numbers.

When performing this exercise, relax the eyes and hands. When the activity of both brain hemispheres synchronize, significantly increase the efficiency of the whole brain.

By the way, kinesiology is such an interesting technique is not only useful, but also fascinating. Most of us perform routine daily physical activities with your right hand (left-handed - left).

What if the experiment, trying to brush his teeth, comb his hair, pick up certain objects and so on, with the other hand? Studies show that the performance of a conventional action "uncomfortable" hand activates new areas of the brain and helps to develop new contacts between brain cells. These exercises are very popular with children.

Exercise "Ear - nose"

The left hand to take up the tip of his nose, and his right hand - his left ear. At the same time let go of the ear and nose, clap your hands, then change the position of his hands, "the exact opposite".

Exercise "The poker"

Raised foot turned inward and 8 times to swing it back and forth. The same with the other leg.

Exercise "Holy Man"

This pose is perfect for relaxing after work. Sitting (can be standing or lying down) your feet to keep parallel, without crossing. Connect pairs fingertips of both hands, as if clasping a small bowl, and place the hands in front of chest. Sight is directed downward, the tip of the tongue is clamped between the teeth.

Being in this position for 1-2 minutes, until yawning or sufficiency to sensations.

Exercise calms, relieves nervous and muscular tension, harmonize mental processes. Kinesiology argue that it improves separate operation of the right and left hemispheres of the brain.

Exercise 'fronto-occipital correction "

If you experience feelings of anxiety, insecurity, anxiety (or stress) helps the so-called fronto-occipital coverage. Put one palm on his forehead, the other - on the back of the head. To focus on.

After a few deep breaths smooth, calm voice their problem. If we speak out loud it does not work, simply thinking about it. So sit a couple of minutes. If there was a yawn, then it means that the body is getting rid of stress.

When the hand touches the forehead, there is a flow of blood, it begins to better circulate the frontal lobes of the brain. In this part of the brain is analyzed, understanding and assessment of the problem, and identifies ways out of this situation.

At the back is a beautiful area, which receives visual images that are then stored in our memory. Attachment to this region palm stimulates blood circulation. People like to erase this way the problem images, negative situations.

Due to deep breathing, oxygen in the blood enters the air venting - and excreted volatilized film. Exercise gives the desired result.

Exercise "Energetizator"

Put the folded arms on the table in front of him. Push your chin to your chest. Feel the tension of the back muscles and relaxation of the shoulder girdle. With a deep breath, throw back his head back, bend your back and reveal the chest. Then exhale again to relax the back and drop your chin to your chest.

As a result of these actions relax muscles of the neck and shoulder area, increases the level of oxygen in the blood, the vestibular system is activated, enhanced inflow of cerebrospinal fluid in the central nervous system.

By this simple but effective exercises I mostly seek refuge while working at the computer.

If you execute it for 5-10 minutes, then reduced, if not entirely passed fatigue, much better start "working head", increases the concentration of attention.

Exercise "brain buttons"

This is a mini-series of three exercises as would include "electrical system" of the body. As a result, the blood supply to the brain is activated and its operation of both hemispheres, increases concentration, improves the perception of sensory information.

Exercise relieves mental fatigue, help to focus on memorizing new information and even improve the coordination of movements.

In addition, they promote relaxation, relieve nervous tension (and very helpful, by the way, hyperactive, excitable people, both adults and children).

Each exercise is performed every hand for 20-30 seconds.

The index and middle fingers of one hand massage points on the upper lip (mid nasolabial fold) and in the middle below the lower lip. The palm of the other hand at this time is on the navel. At the same time we need to translate the look in different directions:.. Left-up and right-down, etc. Then, change the position of your hands and repeat the exercise.
The index and middle fingers of one hand put a little pushing, under the lower lip. The fingers of the other hand at the same time massaging the area of the coccyx. Repeat the exercise, changing the position of the hands
The palm of one hand put on the navel. The fingers of the other hand to massage the area of the coccyx. After 20-30 seconds hand position change.

Exercise "Elephant"

This is one of the most integrative exercise "Brain Gym" Paul Dennison. It activates and balances the entire integrated system of the body "intelligence-body", improves concentration.

So, ear pressed tightly to his shoulder. At the same time pull the one hand, as the elephant's trunk, and start drawing it a horizontal figure eight, from the visual field center and going up counterclockwise.

Eyes follow the movements of the fingertips. Then change hands. Exercise done slowly, by 3-5 times with each hand.

I like this exercise, and I do it quite often during the day. Especially intriguing to experts, that "Elephant" reveals hidden talents and expand the boundaries of brain capacity.
