5 Ways to Promote Brain Health and Well-Being
- Exercise regularly – there is strong evidence that regular physical activity is linked to better memory and thinking since it helps increase blood flow to the body and brain.
- Maintain a heart-healthy diet – stick to a meal schedule full of fruits and veggies to ensure a balanced diet.
- Challenge yourself – the more you push your brain, the more powerful it becomes. One way to do this is to try something new or different.
- Get Proper Sleep – build a routine before going to bed each night that includes turning off devices and bright lights at least 10 minutes before your set bedtime.
- Be Social – brain games and puzzles are a great way to challenge your mind, but even more is the multidimensional challenge of receiving, interpreting, and delivering messages while you maintain a conversation with a friend or someone new.
