Mental wellness plays a significant role in your life. You can characterize good mental health by performing essential functions and the ability to feel and learn.


You can prioritize your mental wellbeing and reap the benefits of a healthier and sharper mind. Here are some five tricks you can implement to keep your brain healthy and in tip-top shape.


Play Games


Playing serves as a mental workout. This is because, when engaging in games, your brain will release endorphins, also known as the feel-good chemicals that improve your mental agility.

Games are a fun way to keep your mind sharp. Experts recommend games like Sudoku and board games to keep your brain active. Moreover, video games help improve your thinking ability attention span.


You employ logic and reasoning when playing various games, which is good exercise for your mental health.


Try Something Different


You can use different activities to keep your brain active. For instance, you can try new dishes, travel to new places, and even take a new route to the store to add something new.


Doing new activities in different ways will help retain your brain connections and cells. Your brain will be less vulnerable to cognitive impairments. 


These ailments may include dementia caused by damaged brain cells in charge of your thought process. This condition may lead to hearing loss, requiring you to use hearing aids and dementia treatment when needed.


Try breaking out of your daily routine and keep your brain active and healthy.


Read More


Experts recommend reading for your brain development. When you read, your brain processes every word and recalls its meaning promptly.


Furthermore, reading enables you to picture the article's subject matter and imagine what it sounds like in written dialogue. This technique is suitable for relaxation. Additionally, it has also helped people and kids develop mathematical and cognitive skills. 


Reading is essential for the mind since it uses different parts of the brain. One of the best things about reading is that you'll have vast materials to choose from and put your brain to work.


Spare Sometime for Mental Fitness


You do not have to spend every second on mental fitness. A few minutes well used will help you think better and clearly.


 As time goes by, try adding some activities to your mental fitness routine like memory workouts, relaxing, and visualizing. By doing so, your brain will rejuvenate, and you will experience overall wellbeing.


Focus On One Task


Your brain is set to do one task at a time. You might think multitasking can enable you to do multiple things effectively, but the truth cannot be any further. Various actions taking place at the same time will distract your brain.


With that in mind, it would be better to focus on one thing and give it your all, rather than doing a lot of low quality work. The better focus will improve your mental wellness and concentration, making you more productive.


Conclusion

Mental fitness is essential to keeping your brain and body in good shape as you age. Add the above tips to your fitness routine, and your body and mind will thank you for it.

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

Description: The first book in  The Reading Game  learn-to-read series tells the story of a skunk without a stripe who is rejected by the other skunks but finds acceptance among some cats and becomes their defender.  It’s told in rhyme, is beautifully illustrated, and is 32 pages long.  It will be the first book the student reads, and there are five more to follow in this groundbreaking learn to read program. Each of The Reading Game's six stories is told using just thirty new words.  These are broken down into six sets of five words.  The student learns to read each set of five words by playing a simple word matching game.  Frequent exposure through play hard wires these words into long-term memory.  Rote learning is transformed into a fast-paced game with a winner every few seconds. After completing Skunk, Game 1, the student has learned five words (can, cat, is, me, not).  Playing Game 2 adds an additional five w...

Packing for your first ski trip

Pexels - CCO Licence So, you're gearing up for your first ski trip and the excitement is as thick as the snow you're about to conquer. But before you can show off those freshly learned pizza and French fry stops, you’ve got to pack.  Packing for a ski trip can feel like preparing for a chilly expedition to the North Pole, but fear not! With these nifty tips, you'll be ready to hit the slopes in style and comfort. 1. Layer Like a Lasagna Think of your ski outfit as a gourmet lasagna: each layer is crucial. Start with a moisture-wicking base layer (yes, that includes thermal underwear) to keep you dry and snug. Over that, layer a warm and breathable mid-layer—think fleece or a wool sweater that can handle the chill. Top it all off with a waterproof and windproof jacket and pants. Remember, it's all about layers that you can add or peel off because sweating while you ski is less fun than a snowball in the face. 2. Keep Those Fingers Cosy Cold hands can ruin a...
