To get smarter...go outside!
This is interesting....
"Researchers have found that the ceiling height in your home or your office, can affect how you feel and act"
Apparently a higher ceiling height leads to greater creativity, better abstract thought and improved detail-specific thinking. (that's a mouthful)
This is expected to lead to changes in office and retail developments. And I would think if home owners want Johnny to do better in school, maybe he should get a higher ceiling in his bedroom! Or better yet, send him outside where there is no limit to the height of the sky, he'll be brilliant!
Seriously though, I have always noticed that I think better when I'm outside, however I always attributed it to being closer to nature. This is really good news for office workers around the world. I can see their boss saying, you get your butt outside with that laptop and don't come back until you've solved our problems. (as long as its not wintertime or raining)
So now we know, that old saying was true...
"the skys the limit"

Hi there Eduardo. This is a very interesting article, got me thinking about my roof lol!. Maybe I need some remodeling :P . I really enjoyed your articles. I added you to my technorati favorites and will be reading you. Thanks for sharing!
thanks Alan, I appreciate your comments...
The 'height of the roof' would be part of the general feeling of the area you work in. Working in a comfortable environment as opposed to a dingy dark one has been proven to be far more productive. Same with an exercise environment - if someone goes to a gym that is in some basement, crowded, smelly etc they are not likely to enjoy it and this would reduce their willingness to exercise. Even the simple difference of having a window in an office can make a huge difference (and not just for contemplating suicide..lol, kidding..aaahhhhhhhh)
