Brain Gym

An interesting technique which is taught by learning experts is Brain Gym. This involves doing certain exercises to get both sides of the brain working together. The result of doing this is meant to give better concentration in learning and therefore better results in tests. Personally I’ve not used brain gym that much since I didn't see much benefit, but if you prefer practical or kinaesthetic learning then you might find it helps your performance.  

The following videos tell you about what brain gym involves. If you’re interested in learning more about it there are many videos on YouTube telling about it and some exercises you can do.

This method is largely based on the 'belief' side of learning. The exercises probably don't have much scientific relevance (maybe a bit like photoreading, you believe it works because your conditioning yourself not to see an failure, not that it’s a bad thing for brain gym) but it can wake you up and help you feel in the mood.
