Our brain is a sophisticated, highly specialized, and amazing organ that keeps us alive and functioning. Our brain loves exercise and thrives on it (in moderation). When we increase our health and fitness through physical exercise, we also enhance the fitness of our brain. But how many of us think about exercising for our brain? How about mental exercises?
Composed of nervous tissue and cells, our brain controls our ability to think and reason, our ability to move, our emotions, our memory, and every bodily function, including our ability to breathe. As a complex structure with tissues working together to perform these tasks, whether we are awake or asleep, our brain is a vital, hard-working machine.
