Keep Your Brain Stimulated While You Take Breaks

We all need breaks in between work, studying, and writing papers. Some people take walks, others veg out in front of the TV, and others read for pleasure. If you’re not a “reader” there are plenty of other activities to keep your mind stimulated while you step away from your classwork.

Here are some mentally engaging things you can try:

  • Read the latest book on a bestseller list.
  • Do a crossword puzzle.
  • Work on a puzzle.
  • Work around the house on a DIY project.
  • Visit a local art museum.
  • Quiz your family on a popular topic.

Feel free to add your brain teasing activities in the comments below!
