Do you exercise your brain a lot? Our brain is like our body. There are many people, especially poor people, they would rather lay off their brain as if the only meaning of life is to kill time; in contrast, there are some people who think actively. The more they use their brain, the more neuro links are created. The more links we have, the smarter we are. So our brain is like our body. Regular exercise helps to keep it operative and healthy.

Yeah, I exercise my brain a lot through playing little card games like uno as well as computer games. I believe that this is important in keeping your brain on the track, as I need it in my academic needs. :D

If you think playing word games like book worm,doing cross words and playing scrabble are exercises for the brain I regularly do them.I simply like to pass time on them.

I am always thinking about something. In fact, there might not be a conscious stream of thought, but my brain is working. There are several topics that seem like a jumble. I give my brain quite a work out. To the point where I an overwhelmed. Given the fact I read quite a bit, my mind also processes a lot of information. And when I exercise my body, I spend time thinking. Never a moment where my mind is not working, trying to map out future plans. I do agree it is very important to exercise the brain.

Not really a lot. I get to do it when I come on line, like when I participate in discussions here, that to me is like exercising my mind. Aside from Mylotting, I also do Facebooking which is also one sort of exercise. I also blog and read news. I hope I am getting enough brain exercise with those activities. I do not want some of my brain cells getting rusty.LOL
