The Body Politic
Things get on top of us from time to time. Whether we’re stressed at work or a little more forgetful than we used to be, it can make life more difficult than is necessary and leave us feeling down.
Physical improvements are obvious. We can see the benefits of working out before our very eyes and feel the effects when we can run further and faster without getting tired. It works as a motivator, pushing you to work harder and improve even more.
The same is not always true of mental health. There’s no way to see if your efforts are doing any good, leaving you feeling dejected, but our bodies and minds are not separate entities; they work in unison, so it’s vital that they’re both up to the task of daily life.
Mind Over Matter?
Improving mental clarity shouldn’t be a mystery; it’s easier than you might think and there are plenty of things that will help maintain your overall wellbeing:
- Regular cardiovascular exercise helps enormously, whether that’s walking, running, swimming or cycling. As well as improving fitness, exercise will help to decrease cortisol and other stress hormones found in the brain, whilst simultaneously boosting endorphins that improve your mental wellbeing
- It’s important to watch what you eat. Our brains run on blood sugar, so it’s important to keep the levels healthy by balancing your diet. If you stay away from high-sugar foods, your body is more likely to release steady amounts of sugar throughout the day and help you to avoid sugar crashes that leave you lacking in energy and feeling mentally slow. Eat a large amount of fruit vegetables and you’ll be off to a good start
- It sounds obvious that after a long day your batteries need to recharge, so try to get enough sleep. It can be difficult if you lead a busy life, but tiredness prevents your brain from operating as it should so try to get enough sleep at least a few times a week
- You already exercise your body, so get your mind in gear regularly too. Whether you enjoy traditional methods like crosswords, chess and number-games, or more modern ‘brain training’ computer programs, it’s important to keep your mind active.
Finally, you should make sure your brain is getting the nutrients it needs. The rest of these tips are worthless if you don’t give your body the right chemicals to maintain a healthy mind. However, if you take the right supplements, you’ll find that increasing mental clarity is that much easier.
