Familiar with the same, tense daily life that the body begins to do things instinctively, sometimes it is a toxin that makes the brain unable to not use any energy or not being stimulated sufficiently. It causes sluggishness and deterioration of the brain, which might risk early Alzheimer's or loss of memory. So in the article I would like to recommend brain exercise via many activities on 5 senses with 5 easy methods that you can do by yourself.

Brain Deterioration or Memory loss by age

Brain Deterioration is a condition in which the brain has lowered efficiency and gradually loses the ability to work in parts. It often occurs in elderly people 65 years old or higher, but it can also occur in adults from 30 years old to 65 years. The first sign might begin with short-time memory loss, can't think of words, misplace the think or issue in ordering the time and direction, etc. These symptoms might not have any impact on daily life, so many people overlook these symptoms and are not being diagnosed. There are differences between Brain Deterioration and Memory loss by age which can be divided into these : 

          Brain Deterioration that leads to Alzheimer’s : Brain Deterioration patient might not only have symptoms of memory loss but also complications unconsciously so it should have a look from surrounding people such as stress, self-isolation, changed personality, cannot adjust range of viewing normally or color blind, unclear conversation and easily loss of memory after a while such as the place that just has been or important events in that day.

          Memory loss by aging : Brain system is deteriorated by aging like other parts of the body and is clearly visible in elderly with memory loss but the difference between age-related memory loss and brain deterioration is that they stop thinking for a while but still remember that event and important days. Still has interaction with surrounding people normally and Occasionally memory loss, that is caused from no attention while doing something and it’s not being Brain Deterioration(Dementia) . So, Therapy with attention stimulating activities is aid in slowing upcoming conditions down. 

5 Brain exercise tips that you can do by yourself.

1. Brain exercise with eyes

When looking at the same picture regularly everyday, shortly after that, the brain will use a scanning method to look at something instead of deep and thoroughly focusing. Hence, We should practice by looking at things you see everyday in a reversing way such as looking at paintings that are placed upside down. Our view will become a new view that has to use thorough focusing. Let your brain interpret or practice your eyes with a photo hunt game is also a good way.

2. Brain exercise with nose

          Our brain often remembers the familiar smell in every detail such as favorite perfume, smell of fabric softener on the pillow or clothing, smell of favorite drink. If we change these smells into other smells. Our olfactory nose stimulates the brain to recognize new scents as well. So, if you need to practice by smelling, you should try to change your surrounding scents at least weekly.

3. Loud reading

          If reading is the power of great learning, Loud reading is also has more power in remembering and learning because loud reading is letting 2 parts of the brain - Wernick’s area (The part that control in language and vocabulary understanding) and Broca’s area (The part that control in speaking and pronouncing) to cooperate in working.

4.Tasting

Challenge your taste buds by trying food with new flavor or try to specify the ingredients that are used in cooking each meal. It is an opportunity to experiment and create new dishes, traditional recipes. It is a developing right hemisphere of cerebrum, which is a part that also controls artistic efficiency.

5. Senses practicing

          Repeating daily life causes an unstimulated brain. Exercising your brain by sensing such as doing daily life habits with the other side of the hand like brushing teeth, scooping the food or playing games that require using your hand, finger or wrist with the other side of your hands like playing scissor rock paper, etc.

The early onset of memory loss in the first phase is also the warning sign for us to pay attention to the nerve and brain system more and the beginning of brain exercising might be many things that we are not familiar with, and some hesitancy, but training the brain a little each day helps in promoting stimulation and continual development. To maintain a clear and vivid mind and to cherish memories of our loved ones for a long time.
