Back when we went to school, our job was to play, learn and engage on all kinds of problems to nurture our minds. We tried our hands at everything, from foreign languages to geometry and algebra.
But now that we are older, it is easy to forget to give our brain some much-needed regular exercise. Your head needs it to remain fresh and alert, especially during old age.
Sitting down on the sofa with a few brainteasers helps us recharge our batteries. So we can jump back into adult life and face all our responsibilities without worrying about burning out or underperforming.
