1. Write things down

Writing things down by hand is the easiest way to exercise your brain. Writing in cursive can actually coordinate your right and left brain, improving your brain’s function. It can also boost your cognitive skills. Furthermore, many psychologists believe that writing something by hand has a longer-lasting effect on memory. This works for both adults and kids. Writing by hand also activates the regions of the brain linked to reading. This improves the brain function as you are using more of your brain.
