When we are children growing up, our imagination is the key to an untold world. In fact, kids with more active imaginations have better brain health, and more likely to dream and strive for greater things as adults. Too often, however, as we grow up, we are told to “get our heads out of the clouds” and that living in an imaginary world is not good for us. However, stifling your imagination is the worst thing you could do for yourself, as it will only pave the way for accelerated aging, and a life that is left unfulfilled.
