I recently stumbled upon an interesting Yoga brain training exercise that according to it’s developer can enhance ones brain function and fitness. It’s called SuperBrain Yoga and is being used by doctors and teachers alike to improve peoples thinking and mental function. Improved grades and increased mental focus among people who practice Superbrain Yoga are being reported, even among those with mental disabilities.
SuperBrain Yoga is essentially a form of acupressure and breathing technique used to balance both hemispheres of the brain and bring energy up to the brain. It was developed by Master Choa Kok Sui who has written a book on the subject. The exercise is easy to learn, takes only a few minutes to do and can be done by almost anyone, anywhere.
According to the book, Superbrain Yoga by Master Chao Kok Sui, a Superbrain Yoga pilot study conducted by doctors in New Jersey with children ages 5-to-9 years of age possessing a variety of neurological disabilities reported the following subjective results:
- The children are more focused and ready to work.
- The children are displaying improved emotional states.
- The child displaying bizarre behaviors appears to have a normal behavior.
- The memory and retention of new information appears to have improved.
- The entire dynamic of the class has improved dramatically.
I’ve been practicing Superbrain Yoga myself for awhile now and can report improved mental clarity, focus and a feeling of calmness after each exercise. It’s great to do first thing in the morning or anytime you need a quick boost of energy.
The video below shows people performing the Superbrain Yoga technique and provides some great testimonials.
A few important points to remember when practicing Superbrain Yoga not mentioned in the video are:
- Connect your tongue to your palate.
- Face East
- The left arm must be inside and the right arm must be outside (over the left arm).
- Inhale while squatting down and exhale while standing up.
- You thumbs should be touching the front part of your earlobes, index fingers behind the earlobes.
- Perform the exercise 14-21 times, once or twice a day.

Good article, Thanks. my name Philip.
I never understood how people find these goofy little exercises out. My friend was showing me some and I was like, you got to be kidding me! That actually does something?
I wonder how much of this stuff actually works – or if it is your mind playing tricks on you.

thank you for this article
Sounds like a great tool. As I try it out and recommend it to my ADHD clients, I’d like to measure improvements with something more sophisticated than the simple “Mood and Focus” tracker I use for other interventions. In particular, what tools were used to measure memory and retention. It’s a measurement that I know needs much more objectivity than we use for mood and focus.
Thanks.
This is incredible! It can actually help children succeed. Thanks so much for the post!
Sounds a little bizarre but hey worth a shot. I’ve never heard of yoga being able to improve brain power but it’s definitely great for losing body fat and keeping your health in check. Thanks for sharing.
Yoga has helped my neck pain, I had no clue it could do stuff with brain power!
Very interesting. I’m a little skeptical of it making a child smarter but yoga has definitely been great for increasing my flexibility and stamina.

Yoga is like a game of challenge. It requires concentration and stamina. So, it helps your brain unwind and think clearly.
i am currently enrolled in a Yoga class. the health benefits of Yoga on myself is great. I am more relaxed and i can sleep well at night.
Isnt there any easier way to improve my brain power? I think that walk backward like you said in another post is easier, isnt it?
This exercise can really challenge the brain. I find it really hard to do such exercises.
i do Yoga at leat three times a week. It helps me calm down my mind and ease away stress.
Yoga is where it’s at. Some people read a book I prefer yoga.
That is an interesting brain exercise. There are tons of ways in improving our memory. Like eating the right food and exercising our brain. If we use our brains more often, we can actually improve our memory.
this is no a yoga a indian school punesment
i practice Yoga purely for the purpose of reducing stress and it really works. Yoga keeps both of my mind and body relax.
i do Yoga everyday for the purpose of relaxation. Yoga really helps me in getting a very relaxed mind and body.
This simple exercise was practiced by many devotees in Hindu temples for hundreds of years, and also used as a punishment in schools in Asia when kids were disobedient. Maybe the rich cutlures of Asia/South Asian knew somethings -thousands of years before science could quantify-left and right brain synchronization!
Hi,

Great stuff, very informative. I am impressed! I hope that your site will be there for a long time.
In hindu temples all over the world , I have seen devotees do this particular exercise in front of Lord Ganesha ,I always wanted to know the significance of this ,in addition to this there are other the devotees expected to do ,to sit down cross legged for few mins at least and pray while keeping your chest straight up, which most people who never tried cannot do ,once you have done no problem ,Now seeing that done in west , in scientific research lab, I can see the benifit of these and fasting days introduced throughout the whole year in the name of some God so that hindu devotees will do it,now i will try this more and the fasting to keep my weight under control
I knew of some purposes you could use Yoga for but like my teacher said: There is something new everyday!
I think I will have to try that out.
Although I really do like and practive Yoga, I must confirm Yoga mats opinion that sometimes you are simply fooled by your expectations and / or your body.

It’s a part of Hindu’s prayer, many of the asana’s and Yoga postures were the part of our daily prayer in temples and now it’s proved in western countries that it’s good for health and increase the memory.
Even in our Indian schools we do it as a part of punishment for weak students to improve the memory capacity.
Practicing Yoga for more than a year I can realize, doing yoga daily will activate the brain cells and make the dead cells alive, which in turn keep us fresh, young, relaxed and happy.
I was very much aware of the benefits of yoga on the brain but this is taking it to a whole other level. It’s definitely out of my confort zone – but hey, that’s how we learn right?
