I was in the office the other day and I noticed that my boss was talking and, all of a sudden, I didn’t feel the scenery of this conversation as I normally do.

I used to notice that he would say things that would underline issues of authority, power, control. And this bothered me, maybe because I was struggling with wanting to be a free soul.

Then I also felt that he would always check my face (and I guess, everyone else’s?) for a reaction of confirmation that I knew what he was talking about and if I didn’t react, he would grow impatient. I think he liked to know that I was in control of my job, which means that he could relax and didn’t need to worry that there could be a problem, or a gap in the department, and that he might need to spend some time and energy sorting it out.

So then I thought to myself that if I could use a strategy of not showing a reaction in response to my feelings, I could…

If you want more time, you have to make time; if you want more love, you have to give love first; if you want more money, you have to let go of the control of your own money, share it, create a flow of give and take, and have faith in the Universal Law of Abundance, which…

Brain Food

Diet and exercise are the two most critical components of successful brain training. When it comes to diet, the foods covered in this article are excellent options given their high percentages of antioxidants and essential fatty acids. All of the brain foods covered in this article have been carefully researched, so when possible, the mechanisms by which these foods create their effects will be discussed. However, before jumping straight into the particular foods, it is a good idea to discuss several terms that will appear repeatedly as a result of their close association with cognitive function.

Antioxidants and Free Radicals

The first and most important term one needs to be familiar with is “antioxidant.” To fully understand antioxidants, it is necessary to also discuss free radicals. Basically, free radicals are bad because they carry with them a single unpaired electron. If we think back to high school…
