Noise can make you smarter... Another interesting mind hack

Let's start with the interesting part of this post first... This post comes as a result of RESEARCH at a real University... Ha ha! I can just imagine rooms full of college students sitting in front of really soft TV low volume television sets... Get the picture? Yup, and some Doctoral student somewhere with a laptop is spending his scientific grant watching them!

Well, here's the post. It's the NEW YEAR (blessings to all! For something much more meaningful than this post go to my friend Pete's blog), why not give it a try!? Who knows, this mind hack could make you a little smarter?

Lowering the TV volume a little more each day can help you improve focus. UC San Francisco neuroscientist Michael Merzenich told Prevention magazine that the technique trains your brain "to filter out background noise." TV-Brain Workout
