    We take care of our bodies and our skin, but why don't we look after our brains? This question got me thinking, so I started looking into the science of braincare to find the most important things I could be doing to optimise my brain performance and health, both today and in the long term. So in this video, I go through the 5 main areas to focus on. Enjoy x

    An excellent video. I’m a hip surgeon and see people who are frail not only because of their age, but also because of the adverse physical and cognitive effects of chronic pain, poor mobility and use of analgesia and NSAIDs. The huge waiting lists in the NHS will make things worse for many people and of course the economy. Obesity and the effects of the menopause also make things worse for people with osteoarthritis. All of your advice is very pertinent. Thanks!

    This and the "12 cheap purchases to boost your productivity" from you, very well done! As I haven't seen some of your videos in a while, but its a treat to se them when I do as it leaves me with insights to change life for the better.
    Perhaps a future video and maybe counterproductive, but a video about Boredom/Daydreaming. I am recently learning more of it, and its that it can lead to creative solutions to a problem you have been having. So I am curious if you have more insights about boredom and daydreaming. Cheers!

(by learning something new) and socialise with different people. And I'm here, trying to summarise what I have gained from the video to exercise my brain 🤣😅

    3. Sleep quality
    4. Replace negatively with positively. Have an overall positive outlook on life and don't forget to socialise especially as you age.
