brain power and yogaThe human brain is very sophisticated and has powerful potential. However, to make the most of it, the brain has to be kept active through exercise, and be nurtured just as any other part of human body.

Grand Master Choa Kok Sui, the foremost and present day authority in utilizing energy (prana) for healing and wellness, said, a particular technique called Superbrain Yoga, can provide the “energy fuel” that helps in keeping the brain fit and functional. It also helps in countering the age-related illness of brain, such as dementia and Alzheimers disease.

By regularly practicing Superbrain Yoga, one can gradually enhance memory, increase concentration and achieve mental clarity. The effectiveness of this yogic exercise has been further scientifically proven, which showed considerable improvements in children diagnosed with Autism, ADD and ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder). The children showed considerable increase in academic and behavioral performance and greater involvement in class and improved social skills.

Superbrain Yoga is a modified version of the ‘squats’ (usually done by school students as punishments for misbehavior in class). The exercise helps the energy centers in the body to absorb, digest and distribute prana to various parts of the body. When done in the right manner, this exercise moves the energy trapped in the basic and sex chakras of the body upwards into the crown energy center, which controls the brain health.

    By simple definition, meditation is engagement in contemplation, especially of a spiritual or devotional nature. To elaborate further, meditation is an attempt to concentrate mind on a single form or an idea or an aspect of divinity at the exclusion of all other forms, thoughts, and ideas. The mind is focused inwards, and this effort of concentration acts as a stimulus to gain access to knowledge of ‘object of meditation’. The aspirant makes an attempt to minimize perceptions through senses – inputs through special senses like touch, sight, hearing, etc. – by detaching mind from sense organs in the brain. This helps in controlling restlessness of mind, in favour of inner contemplation. The mind, as if, is made still. Meditation may be, therefore, taken as a ‘passive’ activity! But is it really so?

    By practising transcendental meditation, or TM, many people have got relief from back pain, neck pain, depression. The mind calms and quiets, . What thoughts you have during meditation become clearer, more focused. Anger, anxiety and worries give way to a peace that — as the name implies — transcends thought.

    “It simplifies things. There’s less anger. Better relationships,Because meditation centers helps to focus more intensely and intently on the moment rather than outside distractions, “it has made me very, very driven in the areas that I want to be driven in.By most accounts, meditation is booming in America, with about 15 million die-hard practitioners, double the number from a decade ago.

    Medical studies continue to show regular meditation working magic in reducing blood pressure and stress-related illnesses, including heart disease. Brain images show that regular meditation helps calm the most active sensory-assaulted parts of the brain.

    Some studies show it may even help students achieve better grades.

    Because of such benefits, meditation is being used more regularly in schools, in offices, hospitals, even prisons. At least one study has shown that prisoners who meditate, once released, return to prison less frequently.
