Have you activated your brain buttons?

Brain Buttons are an alternative suggestion to get your brain activated for particular tasks.  Some people find that they concentration levels increase, particularly if there is little other stimulation for the task ahead, such as a presentation, lecture or training course.  Next time you a major report to write, or you have an important deadline to meet try stimulating your brain buttons for two minutes.  To activate your brain buttons follow the below steps that can be completed anywhere from the car to your work desk. 

Brain Buttons are actually acupressure points, located just below the collar bone and on either side of the sternum. With one hand on your navel, use the thumb and first finger of the other hand to rub these points for 20 to 30 seconds. Change hands to activate both polarities.

Have you ever nodded off in a boring lecture? Reversed letters when reading or writing? Been at a loss for words? Had your brain simply feel "numb?" Lost your train of thought midway through a sentence or task? Felt like you were working harder at a mental task than it required? Brain Buttons
Brain Buttons are the second part of getting "in PACE" for learning. Brain Buttons are actually acupressure points, located just below the collar bone and on either side of the sternum. With one hand on your navel, use the thumb and first finger of the other hand to rub these points for 20 to 30 seconds. Change hands to activate both polarities. Doing this releases visual and hemispheric stress and supports clarity of intention and directional body awareness. They also stimulate energy flow from one side of the body to the other. The brain buttons may be tender at first, but over a few days to a week, the tenderness subsides. Then, even holding the points will activate them. Often one will feel pulsing in the fingertips when very lightly holding the points.
Activating the Brain Buttons helps with both behavior
Brain Button activation prepares students for reading effectively. It helps in "keeping place" while reading, aids in the task of consonant blending in recognizing words, eliminates letter reversals, and prepares for crossing the visual midline when reading.
Related skills enhanced by Brain Button activation include writing, typing, computer work, and even constructive television watching.
Brain Buttons can be activated discreetly at school or work, or whenever mental fatigue arises, by simply placing one's hand just below the collarbones. [Brain Gym® Teacher's Edition Revised, p. 25] can be the answer to mental fatigue, as they "switch on" and integrate the halves of the brain so that thinking is clearer and easier.
