Brushing your teeth with the opposite hand - the JIM KWIK METHOD

Writer's picture: Meera Devaraj Meera Devaraj

It might feel weird and totally out of place, but yes, this was originally purported by the famous American entrepreneur, Jim Kwick. Brushing teeth with the less dominant hand. Which means, if you're a right-handed person, brush your teeth with the left hand and vice versa.



1. IT TRAINS YOUR MIND PEACE AND MINDFULNESS.


When you brush your teeth using your dominant hand, you are NEVER IN THE MOMENT. You are stranded somewhere in your thoughts. You may be thinking about the presentation you have to make at office or the appointment that evening with your dentist. You may be thinking about the movie you watched the day before or even the chores that you have at hand.

On the contrary, when you brush your teeth with the non-dominant hand, IT FORCES YOU TO BE IN THE MOMENT. You will be extra careful not to injure the gums. You will be extra careful to clean your teeth better. You will be extra careful not to be clumsy.

Having read this much, an average reader will surely have this question in mind - the long term effect of doing so? Yes, it teaches your mind peace and mindfulness.

2. WE USE DIFFERENT PART OF BRAIN WHILE DOING SO.

Doing routine activities with your non-dominant hand CREATES NEW NEURAL PATHWAYS and keep your mind in a fresh, ready-to-work mode.

3. LITTLE CHALLENGES BRING ABOUT BIG CHANGES.

Remember, as your body moves, your mind grooves. Challenges bring about changes in life. It is a hard thing to do hard things-if you want to make a difference in your life, start with a change in your habit.

LET IT BE WITH A SMALL CHANGE IN YOUR BRUSHING ROUTINE!
