I've just read an article on meditation and how it can increase your brain power, It states:
Did you know that your measurable level of intelligence (IQ), memory, and overall brain power are not permanently set levels? And that, there are things you can do to make yourself much smarter, no matter your age?

1. Meditation makes your brain bigger. Did you know that just like your bicep, you can train your brain to increase in size?
In fact, a 2000 study at Harvard University found that meditation beneficially increased the physical size of the brain regions associated with such qualities as focused attention, deep thought, memory, and brain power while simultaneously quieting the electrical activity within the regions associated with anxiety, depression, fear, and anger.
2. Meditation gives your whole brain synchronization. Your brain has two hemispheres, left and right.
Left hemisphere thinking is logical, practical, & mathematical. Right hemisphere thinking is non-linear, intuitive, abstract, big-picture focused, and creative.
Can you guess which brain-half is dominant for you?
Numerous studies have shown that humanity's greatest thinkers, inventors, artists, and scientists use both brain hemispheres together, in unison.
Meditation has been scientifically proven to synchronize your left and right brain, allowing extremely beneficial changes in hemispheric thought communication, neural chemistry, and intellectual processing power
So there you have it....it's official....get down to the brain gym and start exercising those little grey cells
