As promised, this week I will share the
final five strategies to maximize mental clarity and keep your brain youthful.
Strategy number 11 from the brain study is to always learn new things. Ideas include reading books on different
subjects, learning a new language or taking up a different craft or hobby. The 12th
strategy is simple, but critical. If you
hope to clear the clutter from your mind, you need to clear the clutter from
your life. Identify your highest
priorities and decide what is really important in your life and what may be
wasted time and energy. Get organized and
consider a course on goal setting. Most
of all, make your decisions based on your life’s purpose. When you can filter your priorities through
your purpose, making decisions becomes easy.
Thirteen on the list is to
practice memory games and repetition exercises.
Number 14 may be one of the
most crucial and that is proper rest. It
is recommended that we all get at least seven hours of uninterrupted
sleep. Without this, our hormones and
our brain will simply not function right.
Lastly on the list, it turns
out an active sex life increases circulation to the brain and produces hormones
that improve brain function. Oxytocin
helps your ability to come up with original solutions. Serotonin and dopamine help creative thinking
and decision-making.
