Brain Gym is an academic kinesiological program that is promoted and applied with a consistent learning purpose that aims at enhancing performance such as memory, psychological perception and cognitive skills. The technique requires the participant to communicate with a series of activities that help the body to understand the primary behaviour and learn how to coordinate the brain and entire body. Brain Gym activities includes of 26 basic motions, which are believed to improve perception and stimulates brain hemisphere by neural re-modelling to facilitate whole brain learning. By ways of balancing both the side of brain, behavioral difficulties, social and intellectual burdens are expected to be reduced. Aims and Objective:This study aims to evaluate the psychological perception and decrease depression in the undergraduate physiotherapy students.Method: Here's a idea we suggest to check the psychological perception with brain gym intervention and the duration for practices comprises of three days a week session, duration of 25 minutes, which is completed in one hour. The depression anxiety stress scale (DASS 21) is used to evaluate disorder which is a valid and reliable tool. This study will be conducted in Ravi Nair Physiotherapy college, Sawangi, Meghe, Wardha. The duration of the study will be six months. The study design is of before after-type with simple randomized sampling. Result:The data will be analysed using Student paired t test. Conculsion:The expected outcome includes the detection of stress, depression and anxiety levels which will be evaluated by using DASS-21. Data analysis will be done using students paired t test and conclusion of the study will be published after the results are analysed.

Cognitive function of older adults is influenced by several factors such as age, sex, education, and physical activity so that it can impact the decrease in progressive cognitive function. It is necessary to implement cognitive training in old people's care to prevent or delay the onset of age-related cognitive decline. Brain gym is a series of simple motion exercises and is an alternative therapy that stimulates the brain. This study aims to evaluate the effect of brain gym as a cognitive training intervention on global cognitive functioning of institutionalized older population. The study is a non-randomized quasi-experimental one using pre-and post-test control group design. The participants of the study were 65 years old or older who had been part of gerontological centers from a local community. They were divided into two groups: control and intervention, each one with 15 people. Mini-Mental State Examination was applied to the sample before and after the cognitive training. The brain gym training consists of bi-weekly group meeting for 12 weeks, lasting 50 min each. The treated group had a significantly better global cognitive function. Recalling (memory), orientation and language skills were the domains with the most significant changes (p < 0.05). On the other hand, no significant changes were found in the participants of control groups during post test. Our results suggest that cognitive training based in brain gym improves global cognitive function of institutionalized older people lease type your abstract here.
