I can't think clearly! | How to handle brain fog

When our mental health becomes a struggle it's hard to concentrate (as well as many other things!) but in this video I explain what is brain fog and several ideas in how to overcome it.

Love the analogy with the traffic build up! Being organised has helped my mental health a lot

1. Lack of sleep ✅ 2. Dehydration ✅3. Poor diet ✅4. Stress. Yeah I check all of the above as a parent. To fix: organize your life/room, Exercise, meditate.

Thank you so much for this video, I just recently discovered the concept of brain fog and realized that I most definitely have it. This video helped me be able to focus more on my studies and improve my grades, and myself in the end.

[@jomortonbrown]

You're so welcome 💕

I was thinking today that maybe I needed to employ a life coach to sort me out, but then I found your video by a lucky accident and this is all I really needed! What a helpful video. You have such a calming voice too (which really does help!) and the music in the background helps too. Thank you! (I'm going to subscribe!). 🙂 (PS: I'm not a teenager, but this video would be helpful to everyone!).

[@jomortonbrown]

Fantastic tips as always Jo!!! This is so important and something that so many young people struggle with. Your tips are going to change and help so many :)

It happens to me every time I go to certain stores, or in shopping centers and some closed places... I literally feel like an idiot, I can't think or reason well, my short-term memory fails, it's like the air in there It will affect me...

[@jomortonbrown]

I understand where you're coming from. The way I try to react when this happens to me (mine is more when my words get muddied up) is not to fight it and not to get so angry at myself. I remind myself that I'm doing the best I can do right now. So, make sure you're being kind to yourself, please ❤️

[@JohanWiebeShorts]
