The Three Pound Wonder

We are "fearfully and wonderfully made," no doubt about it. And we're just beginning to find out how wonderful the brain is. Our little gray cells have attracted a lot of attention lately, and every day there is more published that tells us what to eat and how to live in order to promote brain health.

Tonight I plan to attend a presentation by Dr John Medina, the director of Seattle Pacific University's Brain Center for Applied Learning Research. He'll be talking about Brain Rules, the twelve principles behind optimal brain power at work and home. This week's blogs will feature Dr Medina's insights. You can get a preview by clicking on his website, Brain Rules.

In the meantime, here is a link with a few fun games to challenge your brain. If you prefer the paper and pencil kind, here are some puzzles you can print out. Might as well have a little fun!
