Your Brain Health Comes First

It is easier to obsess about our bodies because we can see the results more quickly. We see ourselves losing weight, gaining muscle and feeling fitter. With the brain, it is much more complex. We don’t know if it is declining; we still have good and bad days. 

The funny thing is caring for your brain helps everything too. I noticed improvements in my skin, my hair, and my fitness level. My job depends on me being sharp and bringing my A-game. Now, I know that the best way to do that is by caring for my brain.

As the world constantly develops and evolves, we are no longer challenged by physical challenges but by mental ones. 

We need to know more, be ‘on’ for longer and strive to achieve more. 

We put so much pressure on our brain to perform that it only seems fair to give it the love and attention it deserves to thrive. 

I think of my Mom  every day, I grieve for her and the loss of her amazing mind. That I can no longer talk to her hear her laugh and see her. Sometimes thoughts cross my mind that it was way too soon, but I know the truth. The minute her health  hit that low point, which made her lose his mind, the thing that made her my mom , it was time. 

I’m no longer scared about being physically less able or attractive as I age. I’ll do my best to maintain that and do all I can to keep that going. But know that now it’s my brain that comes first.
