Persons with ADHD, Anxiety, Asperger’s or just too much stress deplete their brains of the good stuff and thus are at higher risk for memory loss, ability to organize and the ability to self regulate (keep cool, avoid impulses, etc.) If you have a lack of the aforementioned, chances are your anxiety will be on the rise.
If you want to improve your memory or reduce your anxiety you need to remember that feeding your brain comes in many shapes and sizes. It’s not just about supplements, food and natural stimulants like coffee, chocolate and sugar but it’s about replenishing Oxytocin. Oxytocin is created when you connect to people. When you have a satisfying social moment (see thesocialmoment.com) and when you give empathy and receive empathy. Think about it, how often do you initiate dinner parties? Or, reach out to friends (not on text)? How often do you put yourself in the other person’s shoes? The people connection is key to helping the good hormones secrete in your brain which will help boost your productivity, happiness and among other tactics –aid to improve your memory.
