BRAIN POWER Protocol: Harvard reveals 12 Ways to Keep Your Brain Sharp with Cary Jack
Description
Ever feel like your brain is doing a marathon, making decisions left and right, leaving you drained by the end of the day?
Well, fear not, because I've got something that might just save you from that mental marathon – the Brain Power Protocol, specifically focusing on open and closed loops.
So, what's the deal with these loops, and how can they turbocharge your brain's performance?
I stumbled upon this game-changer through my podcast interview with my friend Kriss Berg. He dropped knowledge bombs on open and closed loops, revealing a brain-saving protocol. Now, let me get a bit nerdy here – our brains have a finite capacity for successful decision-making in a day. The prefrontal cortex and hippocampus, the decision-making powerhouses, can only handle so much. Enter the Brain Power Protocol.
Picture this: you're firing off emails, texts, and calls in the afternoon, creating open loops that demand your attention later on. Been there, done that. But what if I told you there's a simple protocol to optimize your decision-making and eliminate that brain strain? Open loops in the AM, close them by the PM. It's a game-changer, saving you time and preserving precious decision-making brainpower.
Beyond the Brain Power Protocol, here are 12 ways straight from Harvard Health to keep your brain in tiptop shape:
- Get mental stimulation: Neurogenesis is key.
- Exercise regularly: Boost your mood and brain health.
- Maintain a healthy diet: Think Mediterranean.
- Manage blood pressure: Stay lean, exercise, reduce stress.
- Control blood sugar: Combat diabetes.
- Improve cholesterol: Diet, exercise, weight control.
- Consider low-dose aspirin: Consult your doctor.
- Say no to tobacco: It's not brain-friendly.
- Moderate alcohol use: Practice discernment.
- Care for your emotions: Guard your mental well-being.
- Protect your head: Minimize concussion risks.
- Build social networks: Connect with your community.
By adopting a few of these habits alongside the Brain Power Protocol, you're not just optimizing your brain; you're investing in a happier, healthier you. Imagine having the mental clarity to tackle challenges and the energy to enjoy quality time with loved ones.
