Intervention of super brain yoga towards brainwave balancing index, brainwave dominance and short term memory
Abstract
This study investigates the intervention of Super Brain Yoga (SBY) towards improving Brainwave Balancing Index (BBI), Brainwave Dominance and Short Term Memory (STM). A group of 36 participants from UiTM Shah Alam, Malaysia perform the SBY exercise for 2 weeks with repetitions of 30 times twice a day. Electroencephalogram (EEG) recording is carried out to measure the BBI and Brainwave Dominance. In addition, a test on STM using digit span test is carried out before and after the SBY intervention. The result shows that BBI of the participants increases by 33% after practising SBY. Digit span test shows improvement of 33% for the forward test while increment of 42% for the backward test. The participants can remember more digit item especially on the backward test.
