- Balance is a trainable cognitive skill; using small daily habits (like standing on one leg while brushing teeth) can improve it thanks to neuroplasticity.
- Closing your eyes makes balancing harder because most people over-rely on vision instead of proprioception (body awareness in space).
- Being able to hold a single-leg stand for about 10 seconds is linked in research to longevity, and practice can improve this ability.
