It seems every single ad today talks about either a new magical product to lose weight or a new exercise that will give you a six-pack in 2 weeks. However, no one seems to talk about exercising the most important “muscle” in our body, the brain.
Sure, we use our brains all the time, even while we sleep, but getting to sit down and solve a few puzzles is an excellent way to get the mind to concentrate on something other than everyday worries and obligations.
Most of the time, after a bit of brainteasing, your head will feel much clearer, ready to face another day of work or studies.
