How to train your brain

Today's Sunday Observer carries a story on how to train your brain that bucks common wisdom. Among the three best things you can do are, two sound pretty good -- eat more dark chocolate and have plenty of sex. The third isn't bad either, but more of a European habit -- eat cold meat for breakfast as the Scandinavians do.

All of this advice and more is contained in a new book, Teach Yourself: Training Your Brain. Personal happiness is also important and the book recommends that instead of trying to find perfect happiness, people should seek a new concept the authors have called BLISS -- Body-based pleasure, Laughter, Involvement, Satisfaction and Sex.
