Increase Your IQ Right Now
Increase your IQ (intelligence quotient) in the next ten minutes...?
There are many brain power exercises and techniques throughout
this site that are designed to help you long-term, but what if
you need a quick brain fix right now? What if there is an important
meeting coming up, or a crucial test, or just a chess game you
don't want to lose? Can you really boost your IQ quickly? If
what you want is results, and not an argument about the definition
of intelligence, the answer is yes.Try some of the following
for fast results.
Breath deep to increase IQ. This is one of the easiest
and most effective ways to improve the functioning of your brain
immediately. By breathing deeply we relax and put more oxygen
in the blood (therefore in the brain), both of which help. Relaxation
has been proven to improve brain function. Low oxygen levels
in the blood have been shown to decrease it. Since most of us
are in the habit of breathing too shallowly, this is a quick
way to increase IQ. By the way, if you breath through your nose,
you are more likely to breath deeply.
Meditating also helps, primarily because of the deep
breathing aspect. The state of mind achieved through a simple
breath-watching meditation allows true relaxation, and is conducive
to creative problem solving. Just close your eyes and breath
through your nose, deeply at first, then in whatever way is comfortable.
As thoughts arise, dismiss them and return your attention to
your breath. Do this for at least a few minutes.
Self-Hypnosis may help you increase you intelligence
quotient. At HypnosisDownloads.com
( I get a commission for sales made) they have an audio download
that will help you improve
concentration, and one to program your brain with problem
solving techniques. I have to tell you that I haven't tried
them yet, but they are inexpensive and they guarantee they'll
work or they'll refund your money.
Move Your Body to Increase IQ
Sit up straight, and close your mouth. Good posture
affects our state of mind, and helps us to think more clearly.
Try an experiment to prove this to yourself. Do math problems
in your head; first while slouching, with your mouth open; then
while sitting up straight with your lips together. You'll get
the point.
Exercise a little. Physical activity-just enough to
get the blood pumping-can "wake up" your brain enough
to help you think better. Walking seems to work best, but any
aerobic activity can help increase your IQ.
Sleep well. You knew this one, right? Just remember,
the evidence shows us that the quality of sleep is very important,
not just the quantity.
What You Eat Can Increase or Decrease Your IQ
Consume ginkgo biloba. Whether in capsules or tea or
off a neighbors tree, ginkgo leaves have been shown to increase
blood flow to the brain, helping memory and concentration. The
effect is quick, and doesn't seem to diminish with regular use.
Drink coffee. Everything from test scores on college
exams to chess games have been shown to improve after a cup of
coffee or other drink containing caffeine. It is a temporary
effect, however, and caffeine may have adverse long-term effects
for regular users.
Avoid Sugar. Actually any simple carbohydrates taken
in large quantities can give you that sluggish feeling that makes
it difficult to think. This is due to the insulin that is dumped
into your veins after the sugar is. Don't eat white flour, sugar,
potatoes, and other carbs before an important meeting, or anytime
you need full use of your intelligence.
Results - Not Definitions
Let the "experts" argue about whether you can increase
IQ or not, in any absolute sense. We know the tests measure your
intelligence at a moment in time, and you know that there are
times when you would score higher or lower. What you want is
a real improvement in brain function. If you slept well, exercised,
drank coffee and ginkgo tea, then sat up straight and breathed
deeply as you took the test, don't you think you would score
a few points higher on an intelligence quotient test? More importantly,
wouldn't you be better prepared for whatever mental tasks you
faced?
