There are a lot of wild theories out there about how to become more intelligent or how to train the brain to be smarter or healthier—-but what many people don't realize is that many of them have been scientifically tested, and there is some pretty convincing proof for many of them.
Here are the top ten ways to boost our mental health:
1. STIMULATE The MIND:
Something that stimulates, triggers, or enriches the mind is referred to as mental neurological stimulation. Internally, through thinking, or externally, through the environment, stimulation may be given. Education, jobs, social, and recreational activities all contribute to mental stimulation.
Any mentally stimulating activity should aid in brain development. Reading, taking classes, and engaging in "mental gymnastics" such as word puzzles or math problems are all good ideas. Experiment with items like drawing, painting, and other crafts that involve both physical dexterity and mental effort.

2. BOOKS TO READ:
OUR MEMORY CAN BE IMPROVED BY READING. Reading engages a variety of brain functions, including phonemic memory, visual and auditory processes, understanding, fluency, and more. Reading activates your brain, keeps you focused, and helps your mind to process the events unfolding in front of you.

3. FITNESS EXERCISE:
Running and swimming prove to be the best exercises for brain wellbeing. This is because it raises a person's heart rate, which means more blood is pumped to the brain, according to Okonkwo. Power exercise, such as weight lifting, will, however, support the brain by raising heart rate. https://depositphotos.com/vector-images/exercise.html
4. HEALTHFUL DIET:
Your brain is a significant organ.
It is in charge of keeping your heart racing and lungs breathing, as well as helping you to move, feel, and think, as the control center of your body.
That is why it is important to keep your brain in top working order.

5. CIGERRATES ARE NOT TO BE USED:
One of the first things you can do to better your brain health is to quit smoking.

6. REST FOR A WHILE:
Take a break after work (e.g., answering modules, taking an online class) to help your brain relax and develop.

7. BE CONCERNED With YOUR EMOTIONS:
On cognitive function tests, people who are nervous, depressed, sleep deprived, or tired appear to perform poorly. Low scores don't always indicate a higher risk of cognitive impairment in old age, but mental stability and restful sleep are important goals.

8. Build SOCIAL NETWORKS:
Strong social links have been linked to a decreased risk of dementia, as well as lower blood pressure and a longer lifespan.
9. AT ALL COSTS, PROTECT YOUR HEAD:
Even without a diagnosis of concussion, moderate to serious head trauma raise the risk of cognitive impairment.

10. BRAIN TRAINING:
A scientific inquiry into the effectiveness of brain training exercises found that they had little impact on intelligence or daily cognitive capacity, and that the majority of programs lacked peer-reviewed published evidence of their effectiveness.
