Pay attention to your eating habits by breaking down your usual three meals a day into smaller portions. These should be eaten at increasingly regular intervals. Make meal times last no longer than seven minutes. When food is digested, a reaction occurs that causes oxygen to reach the brain and this helps to stimulate mental ability.
Use playing cards and place them face down on a table in a simple pattern. Turn over two cards at a time and try to remember their positions on the table. Begin by remembering the location of pairs. As these are found, return the individual cards back to the packet. Continue finding pairs until all cards are removed from the table. Set a time of seven minutes to complete each game. The exercise helps develop concentration skills, improves memory and stimulates the brain to achieve better IQ results.
Implement the Journey System into your life by writing down a list of 10 different objects on a piece of paper. Attempt to memorize the items by associating each of them with a feature on a real-life walk that you might undertake on a daily basis. Identify the first item of the list, such as an apple, with a related feature near the start of your journey such as an apple tree or a fruit and vegetable shop. Work down the list finding relative landmarks on your imaginary journey that relate to different items, using a final landmark to identify the last object and using it as your destination. Close your eyes and visualize the journey for seven minutes before attempting to recall all 10 items on a blank piece of paper. The journey system encourages sequential thought and process patterns and can help improve IQ results.
