Clench your two fists and hold them next to each other. This is about the size of your brain. Scientists believe it contains more than one hundred billion neurons or brain cells. You learn by making connections between neurons. Your brain is capable of more connections than there are atoms in the known universe. Yes, it really is amazing!

Look after your brain
Your brain is really special so it makes sense to find out how to look after it.
Get plenty of exercise
Believe it or not, your brain is greedy. It is only about 2% of your body weight, but it uses 20% of the oxygen energy that you produce. Your brain needs lots and lots of oxygen to keep it working well. The best way to boost your oxygen levels is by getting plenty of exercise. All that deep breathing you have to do when you run around will force more oxygen into your lungs and increase the amount of oxygen in your blood stream. This means more oxygen gets sent to the brain. Just standing up will increase your heartbeat by ten beats per minute so think what a good run around will do. What do you already do to boost oxygen to the brain?

Study Skills
You want to get the best out of your brain so you must become a positive, cando student. Your brain is very trusting. It believes what you tell it.

Think positively
Here are a few dishes for you to choose from.
Smart learners know how important it is to eat a brain-friendly diet to help boost their grades. Here are some of the things on their menu. Make sure your diet is brain-friendly too.
Tell your brain ‘I can’t do this’ and it will believe that instead. Even when you have something tough to learn, tell your brain ‘I can do this but I am going to need a little help.’ Give your brain positive messages so it will want to study.
Exercise 1.1: Positive thinking
Here’s a good way to train yourself to think positively: £°ÊThink of an activity you really enjoy. Ó°ÊClose your eyes or look up. ΰÊPicture yourself enjoying this activity. {°ÊNotice how good you feel – focus on that warm glow you have inside you. x°ÊPicture yourself walking into the room where you are going to take a test or exam. È°ÊKeep that warm glow inside as you smile, look calmly at the paper, knowing you are ready to do your best. Positive thinking gets the best out of your brain. Be proud of all of your successes and enjoy that warm feeling you get inside.
Watch out!
Junk food full of additives will damage your concentration. Sugar-coated breakfast cereals will give you a quick energy burst but are followed by a much longer energy slump. Fizzy drinks are rich in sugar too and can make you hyperactive. This will block concentration. So, if you love this kind of food and drink, keep them for a treat when you are not learning. Dehydration will also damage your concentration. Make sure you drink plenty of water while you are studying.
Valuable advice on exam technique
Tell yourself you are a great student who is going to do well. Your brain will believe you.
Keep calm.
Your brain is very sensitive. It can cope with small amounts of stress. Indeed, a little stress can produce just the right amount of adrenaline to help you finish a project on time, learn for that test or be ready for exams. However, large amounts of stress are bad for it. Have you ever thought ‘My mind has gone blank’? This means your thinking brain has shut down because it is under too much stress. So make sure that you keep calm.

Clench your two fists and hold them next to each other. This is about the size of your brain. Scientists believe it contains more than one hundred billion neurons or brain cells. You learn by making connections between neurons. Your brain is capable of more connections than there are atoms in the known universe. Yes, it really is amazing!

Look after your brain
Your brain is really special so it makes sense to find out how to look after it.
Get plenty of exercise
Believe it or not, your brain is greedy. It is only about 2% of your body weight, but it uses 20% of the oxygen energy that you produce. Your brain needs lots and lots of oxygen to keep it working well. The best way to boost your oxygen levels is by getting plenty of exercise. All that deep breathing you have to do when you run around will force more oxygen into your lungs and increase the amount of oxygen in your blood stream. This means more oxygen gets sent to the brain. Just standing up will increase your heartbeat by ten beats per minute so think what a good run around will do. What do you already do to boost oxygen to the brain?

Study Skills
You want to get the best out of your brain so you must become a positive, cando student. Your brain is very trusting. It believes what you tell it.

Think positively
Here are a few dishes for you to choose from.
Smart learners know how important it is to eat a brain-friendly diet to help boost their grades. Here are some of the things on their menu. Make sure your diet is brain-friendly too.
Tell your brain ‘I can’t do this’ and it will believe that instead. Even when you have something tough to learn, tell your brain ‘I can do this but I am going to need a little help.’ Give your brain positive messages so it will want to study.
Exercise 1.1: Positive thinking
Here’s a good way to train yourself to think positively: £°ÊThink of an activity you really enjoy. Ó°ÊClose your eyes or look up. ΰÊPicture yourself enjoying this activity. {°ÊNotice how good you feel – focus on that warm glow you have inside you. x°ÊPicture yourself walking into the room where you are going to take a test or exam. È°ÊKeep that warm glow inside as you smile, look calmly at the paper, knowing you are ready to do your best. Positive thinking gets the best out of your brain. Be proud of all of your successes and enjoy that warm feeling you get inside.
Watch out!
Junk food full of additives will damage your concentration. Sugar-coated breakfast cereals will give you a quick energy burst but are followed by a much longer energy slump. Fizzy drinks are rich in sugar too and can make you hyperactive. This will block concentration. So, if you love this kind of food and drink, keep them for a treat when you are not learning. Dehydration will also damage your concentration. Make sure you drink plenty of water while you are studying.
Valuable advice on exam technique
Tell yourself you are a great student who is going to do well. Your brain will believe you.
Keep calm.
Your brain is very sensitive. It can cope with small amounts of stress. Indeed, a little stress can produce just the right amount of adrenaline to help you finish a project on time, learn for that test or be ready for exams. However, large amounts of stress are bad for it. Have you ever thought ‘My mind has gone blank’? This means your thinking brain has shut down because it is under too much stress. So make sure that you keep calm.
