Pre-interventional attention span was calculated by Stroop test and trail making test and quality of sleep will be calculated using Pittsburgh sleep quality index. Subjects were treated for 4 weeks using brain gym exercises. Post –intervention, subjects were again assessed using Stroop test and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Outcome Measures: Pittsburgh Sleep quality Index, Stroop Test, Trail making Test.
