7 brain booster habits to have great energy and rock your days

Fitness starts from your MINDset.
Which of those traits can you relate the most with?
🌱 😎

Why do you have a hard time losing or keeping weight?

Research states the biggest obstacle is this👇🏼

It’s simple - you get the wished results.
Let’s say you reached your ideal weight.

Then what?

Most people fall back to the old habits.
They’ll be back at the starting point in no time.
It’s their default mode.

Statistics says that

“**Roughly 90% of people who lose a lot of weight—regain it.”**

In many cases, people gain even more weight.

The problem lies (among others) in the sustainability of the behaviors and changes.

Whatever diet you chose, to be successful in the long run
you need to keep the same way of eating and living
for the rest of your life.

Ask yourself
“Am I willing to do this for the rest of my life?”

If the answer isn’t a “hell yeah”—it’s a NO.

To me there is no diet that works better than the other.
Not in the sense we think of diets nowadays.
Any food restriction causes you

1. stress and eventually hormonal imbalances
2. no long-term and sustainable results
3. a yo-yo effect
4. lack of energy
5. discouragement

My nutrition approach is based on intuitive and mindful eating,

Want to slow down aging?

Follow science based information—not bla bla influencers!

One of the the most interesting researches I’ve been reading this year on longevity, puts under scrutiny the the Mediterranean diet*.

Some of the main traits of the MedDiet & lifestyle:

• decreased consumption of saturated animal fat and red meat
• engaging in physical and social activities
• higher intake of fruits and vegetables
• minimum of smoking and alcohol
• reduced salt intake

In the slides some of the key info of this research.

Imagine you could enhance your brain performance with food?

Well, science says you can 👇🏼

Here the top 10 foods your brain actually craves to function at its best.

1. Avocado 🥑
Monounsaturated fatty acids - help protect glial cells in the brain (astrocytes), which provide support to the information-carrying nerves

2. Blueberries 🔵
Antioxidants - help protect the cells from oxidative stress, aging, memory

3. Broccoli 🥦
Vitamin K - improves cognitive function and memory

4. Dark chocolate 🍫
Flavonoids - help concentration and focus

5. Eggs 🍳
Choline - memory improving and brain boosting

6. Green leafy veggies 🥬
Vitamin E - reduced effects of brain aging and folate - improves memory

7. Salmon, sardines, caviar 🍣
Omega 3 essential fatty acids - reduced effects of brain aging

8. Turmeric 🟠
Curcumin - reduced effects of brain aging

9. Walnuts 🧠
Omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants, vit. E, zinc, magnesium - mood enhancer, fight inflammation, and oxidative stress

10. Water 💦
Brain clarity (vs. dehydration & brain fog), fatigues, slow brain reaction

Together with movement and cognitive work/learning, brain food is the best way to boost performance and feel at your best.

We exercise for the body and go to a therapist for our mind. Forgetting that our body & mind are intertwined and interconnected.

If you really want to improve your energy, stop viewing them as separate ❌

A kind of gym where you can train both your brain and body, is the perfect scenario for feeling vital and being full of long lasting energy 🧠💪🏽🔋

You can start here

✅ Switch to a healthy diet:
- eat healthy and vital food
- avoid highly processed food
- grab as much local and seasonal fruits and veggies as you can,
- vary your food intake as much as possible, in order to get the nutrients - your need for optimal functioning and performance

✅ Practice activities that boost your dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin, endorphin (see pic for easy tips!)

💡 Energy is a very popular and critical topic these days. But what about personal energy?

And most importantly, what IS personal energy?

Here's a brief definition:

"Personal energy is the "stamina" required to accomplish your tasks, stay engaged, and ultimately live."

If you want to increase your energy level, consider the three most important aspects of personal energy:

🕺 physical
🧠 intellectual
🫶 emotional

If any of these dimensions are under or over-stressed, it will affect your performance.

Which of the three aspect is most interesting to you?
