SOLUTIONS TO FIX BRAIN FOG
Get more sleep
(As a young adult is necessary to sleep for 7 - 9hrs/ night.. Do not over sleep, be moderate in your sleep hours)Exercise
(I can't stress enough how beneficial exercise is. Exercise increases blood flow, which helps you stay awake and reduces brain fog.)
N.B: you can walk a long distant 2km is OK or just run around the house.Manage your stress
(This life is not easy!
Schedule a time in a day for Mediating, Journaling or reading a book)Eat Healthy Foods
let me emphasis on this point a little.
As Nigerians are fond of saying "I can not kill myself"! It is important to know the role that a Good Meal does to your body. As you work to make money, take a time off to get some good food. You've been eating junks (bread, noodles, and biscuit).
It would be great if your give yourself a nice treat.- Take yourself out on a date (a good restaurant if you don't have the time to cook)
- Order for some correct food like AMALA or POUNDED YAM or anyone that is your favourite.
- Get a good SOUP. (the one that will leave a lasting impression on your taste-bud)
- Collect the MEAT or FISH in a different plate (Loosen your belt a little, so devouring it will take a free flow)
