What Your Brain Needs To Thrive
- Nutrition: We are what we eat, and having a good nutritious diet, full of green vegetables, nuts and seeds goes a long way. Avoid processed foods at any cost.
- Oxygen: or fresh air is a primary need of the brain. Any daily exercise routine is best for brain health.
- Information: The brain needs information to process, preferably high quality and diverse. Active learning, along with continuous mental challenges that get the cylinders firing is the way to nourish the brain and form connections. True learning reframes our entire mental model and helps the brain evolve.
- Love: What keeps us happy and healthy is good, loving relationships, and the care and touch of loved ones.
