Jogging and swimming are a boon for the brain, however, anything that gets you blood flowing can be handy.

Brain is not only a part of our body. Roots may take right form/shape from a nourishing ground. Means good thoughts, good exercise, good food, good behaviour, good relations and satisfaction make our brain nourish, then only our life take a good shape.
