Exclusive: Dr. Amit Sen On The Body-Mind Link & Why Physical Activity Is Crucial For Brain Growth

This discussion with Dr. Sen explores the crucial link between physical activity and brain development. It highlights how science now provides evidence for the long-held wisdom that exercise is vital for cognitive and emotional growth. The segment reveals that a lack of physical activity can lead to cortical thinning, impacting thinking and intelligence. Dr. Sen explains that the mind and body work synergistically, and neglecting physical health directly affects the brain’s ability to focus, learn, and self-regulate. The conversation covers practices like yoga, modern occupational therapies, and progressive approaches in schools and offices that encourage movement to boost learning and productivity. This challenges the old concept of the brain being separate from the body. The key takeaway is summarized in the advice: "stop thinking, get moving." #mindbodyconnection #brainhealth #physicalactivity #itwebvideos #mentalwellness #cognitivefunction #getmoving #childdevelopment #learning #focus #exercise #scienceandhealth #drsen #indiatoday #stopthinkinggetmoving #brainpower
