My son was recently diagnosed with low crystallized intelligence. After doing some research I have found out that this could be due to him having repeated mild trauma to the head. Before you think he was abused it was actually from him having the need to hit his head when he was young. I did everything I could to stop him but I would just catch him banging his head against the wall (an NOT lightly). I did seek help from pediatricians and they all said that there is a small percentage of children who do this to sooth and what I was doing was all I could do. I really want to be more active in this and not just leave it up to the schools. Please give me ANY suggestions or places that I can go to get more info. I need help.

Meditation can also be in form of relaxation by sitting in a park with ease of mind. The world we're in now is too fast paced and everyone needs sufficient rest and clear state of mind. As such we can boost intellegence!

I especially like the mixture of outer focused tools (software, etc.) and inner focused methods (like meditation). For me there is always one key ingredient, that made sure that I've been an early adaptor and liked constant learning. That is curiosity. I guess if you develop your curiosity, then you don't have to worry about your brain getting old. .-= Patrick´s last blog ..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/UnwrapYourMind/~3/34v4jAQIjdo/" rel="nofollow">The 2 Most Important Steps to Revitalize Your Relationship from Death</a> =-.

I realized that I've given less thought to the food that I'm having that would probably help increase memory and smarts. :) The food area caught my attention! I've been taking fish-oil capsules without knowing what they are for... Now I know!
