Dr. Neal S. Kass M.D.'s Expert Contributions
Are there any exercises for the brain?
The brain requires many things: 1) sleep 2) emotional release (deep conversation about your actual experience of your work and life 3) exercise (any physical exercise will do) 4) replenishing activity and engagement, such as, music, art, love making, pleasurable reading, etc. 5) meditative practices, such as, #4, formal meditation, relaxation exercises, etc. Your body, mind, heart, and brain will thank you. If #2 is difficult, consider finding a good psychotherapist (which means someone with whom you actually connect). Neal S. Kass, MD READ MORE
