You are brain fit when your mental processes, or cognitive abilities, are optimally functioning and enable you to effortlessly perform daily tasks.
Cognition includes the following, which we call the 5 Brain Pillars:
- Attention & Memory
- Auditory Processing
- Sensory-Motor Coordination
- Social-Emotional Self-regulation
- Visual Processing
When you are physically fit your strength, stamina, balance, flexibility and coordination are at optimum levels. You will be able to enjoy any sport, whether it is swimming, golf, cycling, running or tennis. Likewise, when you have solid Brain Pillars you can easily achieve peak performance in almost everything you do.
The reality for most of us is that we depend on how strong our 5 Brain Pillars are. Strong brain fitness helps us in the following:
Students
Enduring mental foundations for learning success and for achieving A+ academic grades. With a fit brain, children find it easier and more enjoyable to learn new things, be it subjects in school, languages, or new skills like ballet or golf. Along with a sense of accomplishment is higher self-esteem and confidence. The result is a happier child. Remember that cognitive skills are built in a “bottom-up” sequence. Development of higher order skills will be much more difficult if the 5 Brain Pillars are weak.
Youth & Adults
Refined cognitive skills for consistent, and even exceptional, workplace performance in any career or industry.
Seniors
Ability to be independent and to interact meaningfully with loved ones. There is a need to keep attention and memory sharp, to react confidently to everyday occurrences, and to avoid accidents.
