Anything that increases oxygen flow to the brain will work...lol
(Get your mind out of the gutter....LOL....oh, wait, maybe not...:))
...THAT could work too....

Actually, what works for me is meditation. Interesting how it works actually when you slow down the bombardment of thoughts and sit in the moment for an hour...You become more focused, more steady, more alert, more able to problem solve, more able to cope with your environment...

(...I had a watchamacallit once but the doohicky's thingambobbers fell off....lol) ~~an early quote from my 79yr dad before he started walking 5k up a mountain every morning at 6 am. Still does and he has beome even more sharp as a tack. My mum who never exercised her whole life, now suffers from dementia...

When I stopped eating processed carbs it eliminated my short term memory problems. Now my mind is like a steel watchamacallit. :-)
