Brain Education (BE) is a self-improvement system designed to develop brain fitness, as well as overall health and wellness. It was developed by Ilchi Lee, who also founded the Korea Institute of Brain Science, a non-governmental research organization in consultative status with the United Nations.

This 5-step system includes physical, emotional, and cognitive exercises including postures, breathing techniques, vibration exercises, guided imagery, healing massage, brain exercises, relaxation techniques, and games. Its exercises stimulate the healthy, dynamic and productive functioning of the body and brain, improving sensory awareness, motor control, balance, emotional regulation, stress management, pain relief, attention, and imagination.

Based on proven body-brain fitness concepts, Brain Education is accessible to anyone of any age or fitness level and can be adapted for use in schools, businesses, and other organizations. Thousands of people already embrace Brain Education as a valuable means of achieving their health and wellness goals.

The 5 Steps of Brain Education
