Brain Rule #1: Exercise - John Medina

Описание: The human brain is hands-down the most used, most complex thinking organ in the known universe – yet most of us have no idea what’s really going on inside our heads. Brain scientists do. They have uncovered facts about how it works every business leader, parent, healthcare professional and teacher should know. Some of these findings are well-known, we know that a stressed brain is less productive, for example, even though we create high-stress office environments. Some facts are less well known, like the need for physical activity to get your brain working at peak levels. Daily exercise is crucial to education as it directs blood flow to the hippocampus where short-term memories become long-term memories – that’s called learning. Astonishing in the light of these facts, schools are replacing gym classes with academic classes. Furthermore, it has been proven that tactics like simple exercise drastically reduces the chances of brain disorders like Alzheimer’s and deep depression. So, why is this? How does it all work, and how does it relate to the real world, from boardroom to classroom? Fortunately we have neuroscientist and popular professor, Dr. John Medina to inform, educate, and even entertain us with his fun, witty, and extremely fascinating presentations.
