Brain Training – What you Need to Know

As we usher in a new year and a new decade, we are often asked “How can brain training help me or my loved one?” Brain training is designed to help children and adults thrive academically and professionally. Additionally, research shows that maintaining an active brain improves cognitive function regardless of our age. 

We’ve put together this guide to help you better understand how you or your children can benefit from brain training exercises.

 

Brain Training and Neuroplasticity

Brain training is designed to turn inactive brain cells into healthy, active cells. Daily brain training, often referred to as exercise for the brain, is essential to not just maintain cognitive function, but to improve it as well. When we keep our minds active, our cognitive skills are less likely to decline.

Neuroplasticity, or brain plasticity, is the brain’s ability to change and grow at every stage and age of our lives. Based on the foundation that mental stimulation can improve neuroplasticity, brain exercises encourage new experiences that demand mindful thought outside of our routine thinking patterns. This neurological flexibility plays an essential role in the development or deterioration of our brains.

Brain training is based on the foundation that mental stimulation can improve neuroplasticity. Brain exercises enhance your mental health in the same manner your body benefits from balanced nutrition and physical fitness. Additionally, brain training helps to keep our cognitive ability fresh, growing, and changing.

 

Brain Training vs. Tutoring

Brain training differs from traditional tutoring in that brain training exercises focus directly on why a student struggles to grasp and process information. Whereas traditional tutoring teaches a specific subject matter, brain training treats the root cause of learning problems, placing the focus on cognitive skills and the learning process. 

Brain training exercises help identify the cause of a specific learning challenge, focusing on the weaker cognitive skills to train your brain and turn those weaknesses into strengths. At the Brain Workshop, our brain training programs are designed to strengthen the cognitive skills which translate into real-life improvements in clarity, memory, logic, attention and processing speeds. In fact, after completing brain training, our clients have experienced improvement, jumping up in rank 16 to 26 “places” in peer groups of 100. Additionally, they have gained up to 15 IQ points, which translates into a significant increase in job performance efficiency and workplace productivity.

 

Additional benefits to brain training include:

  • decreased stress levels
  • enhanced memory
  • increased mood
  • heightened concentration and focus
  • increased productivity and motivation
  • enhanced mental flexibility and creativity
  • heightened thinking and reaction time
  • elevated self-confidence
  • sharper hearing and vision
  • and much more
