The Total Wellness Equation: 4 Apps that Promote Acuity and Mental Fitness

The Total Wellness Equation: 4 Apps that Promote Acuity and Mental Fitness

Sometimes it seems as if physical fitness gets all of the attention. And while clearly, it is a crucial component of overall wellness, it is actually the full integration of states of physical, mental, and spiritual well-being that truly contribute to our own quality of life.1
It should go without saying that mental fitness is just as important as physical health, but unfortunately, that’s not always the priority.

Mental wellness should never be neglected, and incorporating mental dexterity exercises into your life can help you reap the benefits of a sharper and an overall healthier body for years to come.

Mental fitness is exactly what it sounds like: keeping your brain in tip-top shape. It’s not like you have to train for the “Brain Olympics” or regularly ace IQ tests, but rather it’s all about activities that help you to decompress, use your true brainpower, and boost memory.

The effects of technology have made a huge impact on physical fitness – workout machines that can mimic just about any outdoor activity, and devices that track our calories consumed and burned, just to name a few. And luckily, technology is one realm where mental fitness has not been left out; inexpensive, easy-to-access apps create stimulating situations that can truly strengthen your mental acuity.

Let’s take a look at five apps now available on Android* tablets powered by Intel® Atom™ Processors that can quickly get you in shape when it comes to your mental fitness.
