An idle brain is a devil’s workshop. If you don’t utilise your brain, it can rust away your potential. So, here are 5 awesome mental exercises to keep your brain active and elevate your mental capacity.

1. Read

Reading a book
Reading (Beyond the Classroom)

A critical yet quickly forgoing virtue – read. It is not just limited to your textbooks but much, much beyond them. There is no better way to challenge your brain than to read books, magazines, or even online articles. Not only will this help keep your mind active, but you’ll also learn something new!

Besides, the content of your reading will provoke the thought process in your mind. It will help open up your imagination, give you perspective on the world’s happenings and elevate your intellectual level.

2. Take on Puzzles

Remember how crazy we were about puzzles in our childhood? It is, in fact, a great way to flex those brain muscles. Something as simple as a jigsaw or crossword puzzle can help you fit in pieces in the right place. And if you are mobile savvy, you can play Mahjong tiles, Toy Blast, etc.

Filling up your class breaks with puzzles is not only fun but also helps you think critically and keep your mind sharp. Rather than watching videos which just feed unwanted content, puzzles can be a great pastime alone and even with friends.

3. Learn a new skill

We know that beyond your classroom, you have a hundred different responsibilities and chores. But what do you do in your free time? To enhance your mental strength, emerge in learning something new.

Look for skills that excite you. Something that can be fun as well as add value to your life. Whether it’s learning a language, playing an instrument, or building something with your hands, it’s all a great way to challenge and grow your brain.

4. Play brain games

When we were little, our seniors often used to give us brain teasers to solve. We would rack our brains to find a solution. Though not knowing the answer can sometimes frustrate you, solving it is equally pleasurable. Besides, it is an excellent way to keep your brain active.

These days there are so many online games you can play and even apps you can download to keep your mind sharp. Even portals like Buzzfeed give some mind-boggling brain teasers. Play them in your free time to nurture your brain.

5. Exercise

Exercise (Beyond the Classroom)

Your body and brain are connected. What you do with your body nurtures your brain. Regular exercise can help improve your memory, reduce stress, and help you think more clearly. So, find some time before your class hours or in the evening to do some light exercise daily.

Apart from the obvious benefits, exercise keeps you disciplined. It also challenges your mind to elevate the intensity of your workouts. This, in turn, helps you to deal with challenging situations in your life with more ease.

  • Meet Alka 🌸—our sweet and super brave student at #INTI! 🎓✨

It’s her very first time traveling solo and studying abroad, so of course she felt a little nervous at the start. But with the support of Team #EMGA and the ever-caring Ms. Maanisha, Alka tackled everything like a pro — from registration to her medical check-up ✅ She even had time to explore campus during the entrepreneurship event (yes, the food stalls were a big hit! 🍴😋).

And today, she’s already enrolled and sitting in her very first class! 📚💫 We’re so proud of how quickly she adapted — turning her nervousness into confidence and excitement. ✨ Alka, your courage, positivity, and determination truly shine — and we know you’ll do amazing things here in Malaysia. 💕

Here’s to new beginnings, new friends, and plenty of unforgettable #MalaysianExperience moments ahead! 🌟

A brand-new chapter begins for Abdul Muhaimin at #IMU! With his proud father and family cheering him on, the registration day was nothing short of exciting — meeting new friends, lecturers, and soaking in the vibrant campus spirit. 🌸

A special shoutout to Mr. Hisham and EOS Residence Officer Ms. Zhee for arranging his accommodation on the spot. Muhaimin moved into a clean, cozy, and well-organized room that left the whole family smiling. 😊✨ With the virtual support of Mr. Munawar and on-ground guidance from Mr. Hisham, the entire process was smooth and stress-free.
