      So when people say this, it isn’t 100% true. We actually use a lot more of our brains then people think we do. We needs lots and lots of different parts of the brain to work together and communicate with each other just to be able to walk in a straight line and type on the computer. Our brains are always active and they are doing a lot more then people give credit!! Don’t worry, your brain isn’t lazy, they are all doing what they should be!

      The saying I’ve heard is that we only use 10% of our brain. But in fact this was a misconception based on early brain activity measurements. We do actually use all of our brain, just not all at once. The activity is very organised and coordinated…
