Ok, again, let us keeep this simple...

We are approaching 60 years of age, we need to keep that brain up an running , protect it from nasty age related neurological deseases and find a balanced state of mind.

Our state of mind and our general wellbeing obviously is super important for our general wellbeing.

One of the first things I learnt from my WHOOP was the huge influence of stress not related to excersise on my body

 

I like to think of my brain as if it were a computer. Do you remember these laptops from 20 years ago with Windows 5 installed ?

Starting up the computer would take minutes, to install new software and downloading a movie would take ages.

 

Not installing an antivirus and anti-malware software would almost certainly be like a death sentence for your computer, and to keep it running properly, you would need to run a scanner and segment your disk frequently.

 

After a few years, your computer could not run the software anymore due to the size of the newer programs and heavier websites, and the resolution of your graphics cards couldn't cope with the latest video games (I pride myself on never ever having played a video game). Basically, it could not handle the huge input anymore in order to function properly, the computer would get overheated and you would need to turn it off in order to reset itself run all kinds of tests and scanners and in the worst case reinstall windows again.

 

You get the story. We live in a world in which we are constantly bombarded with information.

Distraction is everywhere, and we live in an unstable world and society.

The air we breathe is polluted, we can't drink water from the tap, our food contains all kinds of chemicals, and we are sitting in front of screens the whole day long and communicating via 5G for hours a day absorbing information all day long.

 

KISS...keep it super simple...without getting into science and overthinking....NOT GOOD for us and especially for our brain.

 

So, what can we do ? My 4 STEPS FOR OPTIMAL BRAIN FUNCTION AND HEALTH

 

1. Making sure the brain receives all the nutrients it needs.

2. "Install an antivirus"

3. "Install an anti-malware"

4. Switch it off and turn it on.

 

Soon, I will upload a video on how and what to do....
