There is no denying this conviction that, in the contemporary epoch, youngsters waste a lot of quality time in doing things like watching youtube videos and posting pictures on social media. It is prudent to use our leisure time to do something worthwhile.

While keeping the needs of the modern era into consideration, recently I joined a course.

What did you do during the course?

Initially, the choregrapher focussed on the basics of dancing like a warmup, hand-eye coordination, and discussion on various dance forms. After that, I learned the classical dance.

Next, he taught us Bollywood dancing. I gave a stunning performance on the latest songs. I got appreciation from all the participants and the teacher.

In the last week, the focus was on international dance forms. I learnt complex dance forms such as Joomla and Salsa.

In last summer I was free for two months.
my father told me that there is an NGO which is going to organise a free physiotherapy camp for one month. 

And they were also offering admission to a physiotherapy certificate course for one month.

I have a lot of interest in health and fitness. So I decided to join this course.

During the course, I learned about different muscles and bones in the human body.

I came to know very interesting and amazing things about the working of the human body.

In practical sessions, I learned different exercises and yoga poses to reduce the stiffness and pain from the body.

They also taught us about different acupressure points present in hand, by pressing which we can get rid of many diseases.

In the last three days of the course, I assisted many patients who were suffering from different pain issues.

It was a very nice experience to explore my health knowledge.

After finishing the course, I came back home and I told to my grandmother to do an exercise because she had back pain.

Within three days, almost 90% of her back pain disappeared.

I was very impressed to see the magic of physiotherapy.

Now I always advise people to exercise because it hales us without medicines

Follow up Questions

1. Why do some people have a better memory?

The human brain works on a complicated system, and it is challenging to decipher why a few individuals possess better memory than others. The one possible reason can be genetics, as some people are born with the talent of better memory. 

However, I firmly believe that individuals can become better at memorising with the help of training. Numerous techniques are available these days to make people good at memory.

2. Which can help people remember things better, words or photos?

There is no denying this conviction that we remember photos easily as compared to words. That’s why it is rightly said that “a picture speaks a thousand words”.

Moreover, the internal mechanism of our brain comprehends photos easily as compared to words.

3. Can technology help people remember things better? How?

Technology helps us to remember things through various applications and software. We need not remember occasions like birthdays and wedding anniversaries, the smartphones do this for us.

Hence no doubt technology is empowering us to become good at remembering things by giving as a reminder. But, it is putting a detrimental effect on our brainpower, we are declining the usage of our mental power to remember.
