Neurobics
is a unique new system of brain exercises
based on the latest scientific research from leading neurobiology
labs around the world - including Dr. Katz' lab at the Dept of Neurobiology
in the Duke University Medical Center in Durham, NC. The deceptively
simple exercise program is the first and only program scientifically
based on the brain's ability to produce natural growth factors called
neurotrophins that help fight off the effects of mental aging. Neurobic
exercises use your five physical senses and your emotional sense in
unexpected ways and encourage you to shake up your everyday routines.
Neurobics
don't require paper and pen or isolating yourself with puzzles. Everyday
life is the Neurobic Brain gym. They can be done anywhere, anytime
in offbeat, fun and easy ways while you're getting up, commuting,
working, eating, shopping or relaxing. They are designed to help the
brain manufacture its own nutrients that strengthen, preserve and
grow brain cells.
Something
as simple as closing your eyes and using your other senses of touch,
smell and spatial memory to unlock your door, enter your home at the
end of the day and find your way to the coat closet and answering
machine is a typical Neurobic exercise. What happens in your brain
while you're doing this becomes exercise because different, underused
nerve pathways and connections get activated. The result is the production
of a kind of natural brain fertilizer that strengthens nerve connections
and helps them and your nerve cell receivers (dendrites) stay younger
and stronger. And the benefit of that is a fit and flexible mind ready
to meet any mental challenge whether it be remembering a name or where
your car keys are or mastering a new computer program or staying creative
in your work.
