Dr. Trayford welcomes you to the Train Your Brain Podcast! Today we have episode number 272 for you with a brand new brain training tip. You can exercise your eyes by moving them to each position on a clock. 12, 1, 2 o’clock, etc. Do a slow roll of your eyes starting at the 12 o’clock position making sure you hit all points of your vision and make it back to the 12 o’clock position. Do 5 reps one way and then switch and do 5 reps the opposite way. This can help strengthen eyes and possibly prevent cataracts and vision problems. This can potentially help decrease glasses prescriptions, too! We know how important eye health is to brain function so we sure hope this tip helps you. Thanks for listening!

It’s Tuesday and we’re here with another great Train Your Brain Podcast! Today’s tip is number 268 and it is to walk barefoot. We need to feel our feet on the ground. This helps with the structure of our foot, our knees, hips and posture. Shoes don’t allow the feet to engage with the ground and that throws off your gait and walking cycle. Who knew?! If we don’t get sensory input from our feet, we are depriving the brain from interaction with the outside world. What a great tip! Thanks for listening!
