Mental health exercise therapy 

Learning your whole life is that learning fulfills an important role in our lives. It is generally accepted that learning takes place only when a person is calm, quiet, and concentrated on certain intellectual activity. It is a mystery that the mind and body are separate and that movement has nothing to do with mental abilities. Indeed, simple physical activities, which require little time and do not depend on technical help, can be very helpful to our mental health.

Namely, in order for our brain to learn something, think and conclude it needs other parts of the body that collect information. Research confirms that, regardless of the person's lifetime, motion is activated by certain areas of the brain that are important to learning and thus exploit all the capacities of the body and the mind. More precisely, by aligning parts of the body and the mind, motor skills, concentration, memory, reading, writing, language and mathematical skills are improved, and Mental health improved.

The brain consists of two hemispheres, each of which communicates with the opposite side of the body. The left brain manages the right brain hemisphere, the left hand of the left hemisphere. Information from the left ear goes to the right hemisphere and vice versa. Linking information from one and the other half is a joint work of the brain and other parts of the body. Therefore, exercises that harmonize the work of the body and the brain contribute to your physical and mental well-being. Below are some simple exercises that will help you.
