About this listen

 Generally speaking the average person knows very little about how the brain works. A “brain rule” is something that scientists know for sure about how the brain functions. When you don’t know the rules, your chosen lifestyle may or may not support optimal brain health and function. In his book “Brain Rules”, molecular biologist Dr. John Medina shares valuable information that could influence the way you teach your children, approach work, and relate to life. Each chapter presents one of 12 science based rules about the brain, and offers ideas on to how to use the rules to help you produce positive results in daily life. Some of the brain rules reveal that every brain is wired differently, exercise improves cognition, humans are designed to never stop learning, vision has a greater influence than the other senses, and the amount of sleep and stress you have affects the way you learn. Tune in this week to learn about and explore the “12 Brain Rules” that Medina highlights in his book.
