#2/ Brain Fog Begone! The 4 Leading Causes of Brain Fog
2. Sleep.
James Maas, a preeminent psychology professor and sleep researcher at Cornell, has been insisting for years that 8-9 hours of sleep a night was one of the most important things you could do for your health. And he started saying this in the go go 90s, when people thought it was a feather in your cap to have a job or lifestyle that only allowed you 4 hours of sleep a night which somehow made you “tough.”
Now thanks to Silicon Valley, I think that lifestyle and quality of life trump this outdated badge of honor, and it is more common wisdom that sufficient sleep can do wonders for your health and wellbeing. And when you wake up with uninterrupted sleep, brain fog often disappears. Fitbits to track sleep and natural sleep supplements also do wonders.
