Is The Brain Fitness Program Dull?
What do the words “brain fitness program” bring to mind? I know when I think of fitness pogrrams, I think of the aerobics classes I see at my YMCA, which looks like a fun dancing type of movement, led by an instructor with a microphone, and disco or dance music playing.
But brain fitness brings to mind term papers and reports and drudgery.
Interesting association of brain fitness with drudgery.
Now I am 60 years old, and graduate school is behind me by 12 years, and I am not so sure where they went, except I am married, and I have a 10 year old son, and a 4 year old daughter who expects a ration of tickling each day.
As a Boomer, moving rapidly towards a Senior classification, and one who has always enjoyed working out, and as a counselor looking for the best tools for my clients, I am now exploring a different version of brain fitness programs.
Technological developments like fMRI (functional magnetic resonance imaging) have allowed scientists to explore inside the human brain in new and fascinating ways, and the results are providing some interesting ideas for enhancing our Boomer and Senior Brains, let alone the brains of our children, or our clients.
About ten years ago, there were discoveries made about the human brain that overturned all neuroscience dogma in regards to the growth of new neurons. We do grow them and that growth can be encouraged. That is called neuron genesis.
