My husband has been involved in a rather intense course of study lately. A couple of times a week, right after work, he meets with someone to help him study. When he'd come home he would tell me how it went, which would usually involve him telling me that it took a while to shrug off the work day and focus on the material. I don't know why I didn't think of it earlier, but after a few weeks of this, I suggested a simple stress-buster activity (from Dr. Capacchione's "Power of your Other Hand") that I've been teaching to students and teachers as well as participants who come to my workshops. It helps to get both sides of the brain working together, which helps to see things in a more balanced way and develop innovative solutions. Now, my husband does this activity before every study session and his tutor has noticed a significant improvement in how well he retains the information he's learning. I think this activity is so helpful that I made a video, so anyone can learn this simple tool.
If you try it and have a positive result with it, feel free to let me know!
