Want to know how to become smarter? To be smarter you don’t just need to read, seek more knowledge, or study for a doctorate. You need to train your brain, give it challenges that improve its capabilities and add some tricks that can strengthen things like memory, attention and the ability to learn.
Science has found that there are many ways you can expand your mind and have a stronger, more efficient brain. Some of these things are really simple and don’t take more than a few minutes.
Our brain is like a muscle, which means that it can be trained. By doing so, it can become much better at storing, processing, and remembering information. It can also find solutions to problems more quickly, be more creative, and think better, but the opposite can also happen if you don’t give it the attention it needs.

According to Psychology Today, a group of neuroscientists in Japan discovered that music has a very positive impact on the brain and that listening to just 3 minutes of the right music (and dancing to the beat) can increase intelligence.
The benefit comes when you listen to the music, enjoy it and dance with it, so it is ideal to listen to songs that you like, with a good rhythm and beat that invites you to move your body a little. When you move, you also get the benefits of very light cardiovascular exercise.
In addition, according to the site, enjoying music and dancing also improves your mood, helps you feel more motivated and improves the executive functions of the brain which, according to the Memory and Aging Center, “is referred to the higher-level cognitive skills that you use to control and coordinate your other cognitive skills and behaviors.”
