内容概要

　　No more punch lines that just slipped away. No more names on
the tip of your tongue. No more senior moments Drawing on
cutting-edge neurological research, how to keep your brain alive:
83 neurobic exercises brings help to everyone whose memory is
starting to slip. Devised by Dr. Lawrence Katz, a professor of
neurobiology at Duke University Medical Center, and Manning Rubin,
author of "60 Ways to Relieve Stress in 60 Seconds," here is a
regimen of mental cross-training that can be done anywhere, by
anyone, at any time of day. The premise is simple: When you
exercise the brain, you release natural growth factors called
neurotrophins, which in turn enhance the brain's level of fitness.
And nothing so easily stimulates the brain as breaking routines and
using the five senses in new and unexpected ways. So if you're
right-handed, wake up tomorrow and brush your teeth with your left
hand. Or close your eyes before you get into the car and then get
the key into the ignition. Every time you open a new circuit in
your brain, it's like doing a round of mental sit-ups, without the
pain. 68,000 copies in print.
