The Power Of The Brain
October 10, 2016
Even if you’re not the smartest kid in the world, you still use your brain every moment of each day. The smartest science geniuses in the world admit that even they don’t know the full power of the brain. They wonder if our brains hold something much more incredible than what we use each day. To explore more deeply, scientists have delved into the brain’s complexity and discovered some pretty amazing things.
The brain is one of the main organs in the body and it controls everything we do. This means that the brain never stops working, even when we’re doing some mind-numbing chores.
When you sleep, only half of your brain hibernates. The two halves alternate dozing as our bodies rest. Kind of weird, right? Well, scientists also learned even more incredible things that make our brains hurt to think about.
Here’s one: Scientists believe that no one has been able to use their brain’s full potential, yet by practicing certain brain exercises and using different parts of the mind, anyone can unlock amazing things that may seem like real-life superpowers. For example, people have the ability to build muscle just by imagining that they are exercising, raise their body temperature just by focusing on feeling warmer, and boost physical endurance by doing mental puzzles. People can also improve and grow their willpower. Yet these just scratch the surface of the vast amount of mental power that humans harness.
There may never be a day when scientists unveil the true power of the brain, but they will continue to expand their knowledge of the secrets that the mind hides. Who knows, if we set our minds to it, maybe we can fly.
