We frequently need to de-stress, relax, clear our minds of chaotic debris, gain a fresh perspective and regain a fresh, energized creative perspective. Each of us needs a clean refresh and full emotional and psychological reset to be at his or her best If you are a follower or reader of The Braintenance Blog , I would suggest you bookmark this page , because you're going to use this meditation recording at least three times a day - and if your need it, perhaps a fourth or fifth time. The recording takes less than 10 minutes each time, but its effects are amazing -- and you can listen to it without headphones, antennae or an aluminum foil hat in the quiet of your home or office.Consider it to be a quick sanity kit. Rid your weary mind of burdensome anxiety or the fugue state induced by the upcoming year-end audit, guessing at your bonus, pre-holiday Christmas gift panic, Black Friday, Cyber Monday , Return-That-Junk Tuesday [a Lingovation], the blues, the blahs, the feeling of...

Did you know that navigating your way through mazes can increase your total memory, recall and cognition? Did you know that this simple recreational activity (which only requires a pencil and a mind) also delays the outset of senile dementia , enhances your ability to focus, improves your abstract reasoning , improves your ability to plan and carries with it untold and countless other benefits. Mazes are wonderful mental muscle builders. Individuals tend to attack mazes (on paper or on sketch screen applications on mobile devices ) using any one of several approaches: 1) Brute Force Adherents, who only make a cursory inspection of the maze, followed by high-speed trial and error attempts, with each attempt usually getting than the one which preceded it and terminated at an earlier stopping point; 2) Center - Out Examiners, who view the whole maze and first seek to identify the center, and psychologically work their way outward to the entryway of the maze befor putting stylus to scree...

Self-hypnosis, NLP , future visualization, subliminal suggestion and the notion of The Law Of Attraction may or may not be part of your belief system. I know that many of our readers of The Braintenance Blog are quite skeptical about anything that they cannot examine fully with their conscious senses -- even then they tend to be doubtful. There is nothing wrong with belief systems , unless they inhibit your self-growth, professional development , achievement of your objectives or your happiness. In such cases, subtle re-programming can and does work wonders. The secret lies in the ability to open your mind, suspend conditioned disbelief, and simply enjoy the experience. While great expectations are wonderful, they can set you up for disappointment. My preferred approach is to 'let the experience take me wherever it will,' and to just permit myself to let whatever happens happen. The best expectation orientation is to just enjoy the experience...to just let it enter you. After ...

While strolling through cyberspace via search engine , I came across some nifty word problems involving mixtures or solutions . These are my favorite types of algebra problems because there solutions require solutions. I can't seem to get enough irony (or wordplay) - I might be anemic. These are great problems to try to do in your head (visualize containers and the pouring process) if the math is easy enough. There are great fun, highly gratifying, and wonderful brain-trainers -- not only for algebraic reasoning, i.e., find the missing number, but for improving your ability to visualize.  That's right. The Braintenance Blog is offering our adherents (those who stick with us or to us) two benefits for the price of one. In fact, if we wanted to keep this sale in proportion we'd have to offer four benefits for the price of two; or three benefits for the price of one and a half; or (let's get crazy) one whole benefit at half price... do you see where I'm going?
