Some ways to boost brain energy and increase activity

in life •  7 years ago  (edited)

The brain like any muscle in the body needs movement, thinking and exercise to rust and lose its value. It also needs some rest to regain its strength and needs some other things that are energized to make the most of it. In this article, we will remember a lot of steps that help you lift energy.

1- Do something new:

When you start experimenting with something new, it stimulates your mind but does not relate to it until it becomes one of the old things the brain has been accustomed to before.
The only way to change the structure of brain cells is to experiment with something new, creating a new set of neural pathways to absorb what you are doing, which raises your intelligence level. This new thing can be an unusual way to work, a new recipe for food in the kitchen or even a new set of exercise. The new thing is not necessarily a big thing just a change to the habit may be enough.


2- Training Memory:

How many times have I heard people talk about their unreasonable forgetfulness and that their memory is no longer as strong as before but with all this complaint no one is doing anything to remedy the problem.
You can practice a simple exercise to strengthen the memory is simply save numbers on your mobile phone, for example, and there are many exercises of memory scattered on the Internet you can invest some time in it.


3- Thinking positively:

Stress and anxiety acquire neurons and prevent the brain from forming new cells. The researchers have shown that positive thinking, especially with respect to the future, trust in God and confidence in his ability to promote the formation of new neurons and reduce tension and anxiety, so you must find ways to deal with negative thoughts.


4- Reading books:

Imagination is a powerful way to boost and train the brain. It forces the brain to draw a picture that does not really exist, so it does not depend on the external senses, but forces it to feel as it wants. Reading enhances the brain's ability to imagination.

Einstein once said that logic moves its author between points A and B and the imagination moves its owner anywhere.


5- Get enough sleep:

Sleep is a savior of the brain. Sleep makes the body renew its cells and get rid of toxins The brain in the meantime the same thing, but in his way so you should go to sleep at 9 pm or at most in the middle of the night to get the most out of sleep.


6- Listen to music:

What kind of music do you love, classical or rock? What kind of music do you hear? It helps the brain to create new neurons and enhance intelligence, based on many of the people's studies before and after listening to music.


7- Meditation:

The simplest meditation exercises you can do is to close your eyes and put your attention to your breathing and try to focus your thinking on a place you make of your imagination and feel relaxed to clear your mind and make it ready for any task after that.


8- Learn a new language:

Learning a new language enhances brain function and introduces your mind to many new cultures and concepts. It gives you many different perspectives and teaches you to think differently. It is one of the most important exercises that the brain can exercise.


9- Eat an adequate amount of caffeine:

The studies showed a higher total score for students who took caffeine before the exam. Other studies confirm that too much caffeine reduces the brain's ability to make the right decisions. You should know that the caffeine effect varies from person to person.


10- Avoid sugar:

Any type of carbohydrate for simple can be a lot of brain fog called sugar blues and this sense of hyperactivity brain confusion thinking about the net, which results from the flow of insulin in the blood to address the amount of sugars that you eat so if you want to raise brain energy should avoid pasta and sugars White wheat and potatoes.


11- Fictional friends:

Talking to imaginary friends in your mind and taking advice from them is a very good way to get information out of your unconscious mind. Imagine a conversation between you and someone else who knows more about you in a particular topic than if you want to ask for his advice.


12- Self-motivation:

You must motivate yourself and constantly strengthen your confidence in yourself to stimulate activity in your mind and motivate you to do new, creative things.


13- Avoid exposure to pressure:

Scientists have found a lot of documented evidence that exposure to stress and anxiety leads to the destruction of nerve cells in the brain and exposure to stress and anxiety continuously for long times hurt the brain and memory not to mention its effects on the body so you must learn how you can control your stress.


14- Watch useful lectures and documentaries:

Watching lectures on useful sites such as TEDx and documentaries helps the brain to synthesize new ideas and may be critical, stimulating the mind's ability to innovate and increasing its activity and strength.


15- Breathing exercises:

You should learn how to breathe deeply for at least 15 minutes a day to increase the oxygen absorbed by the brain, helping to increase activity and energy.

That's why I say thank you for submitting
These reinforcements strengthen the brain

Food for my brain!!

Train your brain so that it can perform better. Once it is left aside, probably will become rusty and thinking become slower. While we read more, the brain can gain knowledge and our logical thinking improve. So, always try to figure it out yourself before asking around for answer

Great.
I am really agree with these rules. This is fantastic things to do for your brain. It is good and perfect for the brain.
Thank you for sharing and talking about this subject.

Some great tips, but I would add dark chocolate. Glucose is the fuel of the brain and I agree about 10. but dark chocolate is amazing boost of energy for the brain

This is so very true. Not milk chocolate too much sugar. A good dark chocolate is a good replacement for the caffiene, since it is naturally occuring in the chocolate. Pluse it helps with good cholesterols.

I've heard that fats are more important for the brain than sugars/glucose, the brain apparantly is made of mainly fat and natural unprocessed fats such as coconut oil, advacado and animal fats from free range animals is much healthier than sugars and processed seed and vegetable oils.

You forgot Don't listen to Doctors about cholesterol!

HDL and LDL Are not cholesterol they are carriers of cholesterol and other things like phospholipids, triglycerides, cholesterol and protein .

The chemical formula for cholesterol is C27H46O. There is no good version or bad version of this formula.
LDL and HDL are not cholesterol!!!
But most doctors refer to them as cholesterol, but they aren’t. LDL (low density lipoprotein) and HDL (high density lipoprotein) are "proteins" that transport cholesterol through the blood. Cholesterol, like all fats, doesn’t dissolve in water (or blood) so it must be transported through the blood by these lipoproteins. The names LDL and HDL refer to the different types of lipoproteins that transport cholesterol.We can think of lipoproteins as tiny ‘taxi cabs’ traveling around the blood stream acting as transporters
Do you think that taxis are people? Or do you think that they are carriers of people?

Cool, those "doctors" are fooled themselves and us to think as they want us to think. Get better if we learn about our body. I wrote today a post on this subject.

Oxidized cholesterol is bad oxLDL

This post has been upvoted and resteemed. I also started following you to see more of your work!

These are great, and completely agree

Any man who reads too much and uses his own brain too little falls into lazy habits of thinking

One thing you don't mention which is really important is to drink lots of water. Around 2 litres per day is a good target.

Wow thank you Michael for this post..... New habits loading

Wow, a lot of advice.
I am amazed at this recommendation:

11- Fictional friends


where did you inspire with this idea?

Thanks for giving information about excesices

This is really helpful and looking at the longlist, I feel like I could improve in some key aspect like meditating and learning new language. However I trumped the cards in most other areas at least I think so. Anyways it's a good thing to keep improving and not stay comfortable. Thanks for sharing this

You got it well covered @michaelmorcos . The blueprint of mental wellness and enhanced cognitive performance. Great work! Kind regards

11- Fictional friends: Talking to imaginary friends...
Sounds a little frightening. Can't it be a step towards dissociative identity?
From other point of view we are constantly talking to ourselves in a stream of consciousness...

The point with avoiding sugar feels impossible to me😄😄

Love it! For me doing something new is the big one. It's so easy to lay back and avoid any and everything outside your comfort zone.

By default we are wired to seek safety, which at the same time means sticking to what we already know. I noticed that exceptional people make a conscious effort to monitor their area of comfort and constantly strive to expand it by learning and doing new things.

Remaining experiential in life , maintaining reading , writing habit ( at least a para ) , watching what stimulates curiosity and imagination along with some spiritual practices like meditation and yoga, in nutshell see you through smoothly. Further helping you ride on every wave of life taking it in a stride.

IMO, it is perfectly logical to treat your brain and your behavior as muscles. So, just like a muscle, mental stamina can be built through repeated, deliberate exertion, FOLLOWED BY REST! @michaelmorcos

11th point you mean Tyler Durden XD
Btw breathing technique does really helps. Not active it calms the mind down in a good way, one must try it.

I knew many from these steps, still you provided here things I didn't know so thanks ;-)

con los apuros de la vida olvidamos este órgano que lo mueve todo, en cuanto a las sugerencias me apunto en leer ,escuchar música automotivacion. esto me hace feliz y mantengo joven el cerebro.

This article is worth commending. The brain is the most important organ of the body. It controls every aspect of it, hence protecting it is very necessary.

@michaelmorcos : Agree with a lot of these keypoints and have to add #11- talking to fictional friends : I'll shamelessly admit i do this haha except it winds up becoming internal monologues that turn external at times. What are your thoughts on talking to yourself? 😛

So I'm kinda on the right track here. Cool. The imaginary friend is new to me will definitely see who I will be inventing to keep me company and get my brain active. Caffeine works wonders for me but it does depend on the form of caffeine and if it's a supplement, some work better than others.

Thank you, your post is very useful

@michaelmorcos amazing and usefull post! And whenever you try something new you expand the work capacity of your brain. That being said, guys please be creative. Thank you for the usefull experience!

Another powerful thing to try is Neuro-linguistic programming

Thanks for the tips and as of for Sleep I think I should get some more as it is getting lower day by day ,I do really agree wit your facts buddy !

Thanks. Some seem obvious but sometimes we need to be reminded.

You forgot the most important way to improve:

16 . Post on steem it and engage with the audience! haha jk.

Great post! Thanks for sharing.

Good and informative post. One also very important part of increasing your brain energy is working out. Nothing beats a bad mood more than a good work out!

thanks for suggesting all these ways will take care of those

solving riddles will help you find the fastests solutions of your daily problems the brain is like an athlete practicing everyday for a compitition

The brain is that part which handles all functions of our body but we don't even care about this organ. We spent time in beautifying and satisfying the needs of the whole body except the brain. At least somebody realizes the need to strengthen and improve the capabilities of the brain and I really appreciate your effort. Agree with you on all aspects except for meditation.
I think meditation is the most important factor among all as stated above but meditation is far far more than that which you stated in your post. Sitting in silence would not help you eradicate all your thoughts and concentrating on your breaths would may last for few moments. Many people get frustrated while trying to meditate in this way and ending in getting nothing rather tension.
We don't need to manage special time for meditation, rather we can meditate in each and every situation by just being aware of our surroundings and focusing on what we are doing. Yes, "Being Aware" of every situation and relaxing your mind from past memories or future panics is real meditation.
I'm trying to share my knowledge and experiences in this regard through this platform and I encourage you to please follow me for learning how could you change your mindset to keep yourself happy at each moment.

Here my NEW Post guys! https://steemit.com/health/@lifehealth/3-secret-super-foods-that-make-fat-melt (follow, upvote and comments on any of my posts. I did already ;-)

Good post, i like it
I wish you success

I have tried all of those after reading this. I have lost energy and decreased activity. Can i get my money back?

As you grow older, your brain is exposed to more harmful stress due to lifestyle and environmental factors, resulting in a process called oxidation, which damages brain cells. Food rich in antioxidants can help fend off the harmful effects of oxidation in your brain.

Love this post.....the mind is the most important muscle of the human being....great info to help others :)
Good educational information should be shared so your post has been Upvoted and Resteemed. Hope more people get to read your blog.

I think this is one of the top things that we forget when taking care of ourselves.

Great work....agreed
Upvoted.

getting enough sleep and rest if effective in preventing brain tumour. Wonderful write up

Getting enough sleep and rest is very vital in preventing brain tumour... Great write up

This is Awesome Content! I do agree that being positive and getting rid of stress will definitely bring out the best in your brain functioning.

I guess I have to do all of these things for my brain functioning.. As long as my endorphins is working I still have got the chance... ^-^

Terrific post ! Of course the brain has to keep exercising, we have to remember it is the only part of the body which keeps being very active while we sleep !

@michaelmorcos
inshort you shared your personal experience through this post. You implemented first after that you just shared your ways through this post.

Practically motivational post. I learned many things after reading this. I will be implement this things.

Thanks for such a wonderful post.

Thanks for the piece on the brain. But the topic is about boosting it. We're living in an age of EMF pollution, so you need to do a lot more stay balanced. Sleeping on Grounding sheets will work for some things but still won't boost what you have. For that you need to look into nootropical aids.

The earthpulse is the best nootropical tool as it's purely based on earth's low schumann resonance frequency range. It's an amazing experience to watch your cognition, balance and strength sore in just a few days of lying in it's magnetic field..

Very good infomative post I do about 6 at the moment, only recently also and I have to say it is making a difference. I need to work more on self motivation and get out of the habit thinking that I cannot do something before I even tried. This post helped me a lot thank you for sharing.

Goodbpost
