How to Boost Your Memory Naturally

By The Better Brain Academy
We tend not to notice when our memory is working at peak performance, but it is very noticeable when it isn’t working well or is failing. While no one knows exactly how memory works, there are a number of issues that can contribute to memory decline including:
  • Stress
  • Poor lifestyle
  • Lack of exercise
  • Poor circulation
  • Overweight or obesity
  • Poor nutrition
  • Lack of sleep
  • Head injuries
If you suffer from any of these things, there’s good news as it is possible to avoid or alleviate these issues. No matter how you’ve treated brain health in the past, there are ways you can improve your memory over time by following an improvement plan. 

Here are 6 tips for restoring Brain Health

High-quality Nutrition
When it comes to getting healthy, preventing illness, or losing weight, the quality of your food matters significantly more than the quantity of it. If you count calories, do you take into consideration what you are eating? A 500-calorie pastry compared to a 500-calorie plate of fish, vegetables, and fruit is going to serve you very differently. One will flood your body with sugars that drain your energy and damage your tissues. The other will provide you with nutrients that supercharge your brain, and help decrease your risk of premature brain decline. Make sure you are eating foods that are packed with the nutrients you need and that can be effectively digested and absorbed. 

Stay Hydrated
Did you know your brain is mostly composed of water? It’s important to avoid anything that dehydrates it - such as drinking too much caffeine or alcohol. If you keep your brain hydrated it will help optimize its potential in tasks that require attention, focus, immediate memory skills, and performance at school or work.

New Learning
It’s important to set aside some time every day for new learning. Learning something new such as a sport, musical instrument, or language can help stimulate your brain. When the brain stops learning, it starts dying, so be intentional at learning new things. 

Nutritional Supplements
One of the best ways to promote the healing process is with brain directed supplements. It’s important to take pure, clinically proven vitamins and nutrients that are essential for your overall health. These can help improve energy, focus, and memory. On our website, under the ‘Shop’ button, we have a number of great supplements to consider adding to your daily routine. **Always consult your doctor or naturopath before starting any supplements. 

Coordination Activities
Doing a few coordination activities can go a long way! Consider taking up tennis, dancing, or swimming - it will boost activity in the cerebellum. While the cerebellum is only 10% of the brain’s volume, it contains about 50% of the brain’s neurons and is involved with both physical and thought coordination. 

Be Mindful
One of the best ways to achieve a state of calm is mindfulness. This can be done through yoga, tai chi, meditation, or other mindfulness exercises. It can help reduce depressive and anxious thoughts while increasing focus. People tend to ignore mindfulness because it doesn’t burn calories like aerobic activities, but it is just as important. Studies show that it can help improve your brain and memory by just practicing for a few minutes every day.
