Here are 5 tips to help improve your memory and clear your brain fog whilst you’re working.
1. Eat foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids 3 times per week.
Omega-3s help build brain and nerve cells which will help improve your memory. Switch your tuna sandwich for a fresh salmon salad.
2. Water your brain and avoid dehydration.
Your brain cells need water to help them communicate with each other & to clear out toxins & waste that can stop them functioning.
Drink 2 litres of water or herbal teas a day. [Coffee and alcohol don’t count]!
3. Exercise regularly to facilitate the growth and repair of cells and blood
vessels in your brain.
Exercise helps get oxygen to the brain & builds new brain cells. Do exercise you enjoy such as salsa dancing, rowing, tennis.
4. Get a good night’s sleep [7-8 hours minimum].
Lack of sleep leads to lower levels of concentration & alertness. Go to bed and wake up at the same time each day to reset your circadian rhythms [body clock].
5. Manage your stress levels.
Stress can kill brain cells and shrink your brain. Taking deep breaths, meditation or going for a walk in nature can switch you out of stress mode and into rest and relaxation.
