'Building Mental Muscle'
with Dr.Vasanthi Vasudev

“If we think about some of the people we would consider to be historical geniuses such as Leonard da Vinci or Einstein, it becomes obvious that they displayed both ‘left brain logical’ and ‘right brain creative’ talents simultaneously. Research has shown that whole brain thinking is more effective than accessing either of the two brain hemispheres independently. If our species was meant to do manual tasks with one finger, we would NOT have been born with ten fingers. In fact, man (Homo Sapiens) is the only creature on earth that does NOT use its 100% brain capacity. Enlightened, the management guru Dr. Vasanthi Vasudev from I.E.T.S., Chennai as the main speaker at the National Workshop on ‘Building Mental Muscles’ organized today at India International Institute of Management, Jaipur.

Addressing the budding managers of the institute, Dr. Vasanthi said that when we don’t use a brain muscle, we lose it and we get stressed because we tire a few specific brain muscles by over-using them. The management guru advised to explore various ways to use our brain muscles to all its capacity through doing mental exercises. She also did many with the participants and helped them discover how they can involve the 100% of brain at various levels.

Answering to the queries of the students, she also discussed Mediation, Multi-tasking & various Brain-warming exercises which made the workshop not just extremely interesting but also a sure hit.  
Dr. Vasanti also shared her valuable time and talents with the staff and students of India International School on the 16th & 17th of Dec.2003.
One and all were benefited by the workshop. On behalf of the staff and students of IIIM, Director Dr. Ashok Gupta appreciated the kind presence of Dr. Vasanthi Vasudev and said that the institute would love to have her here-again & again !
