5 minutes to a younger brain!

Remember why you entered a room

Ever walk into a room only to forget why? Japanese scientists found a clever "point and call" trick that helps: Point in the direction you're heading (like toward the kitchen) and say aloud the action you're about to perform (such as, "I'm turning on the coffee maker"). This aligns your thoughts with your body, boosting short-term memory by as much as 85%.

Problem-solve

When you need to triple a recipe or figure out a tough Wordle puzzle, sit down next to a window or switch on a reading lamp. Doing so improves your problem-solving skills by 30%, suggests a Michigan State University study. Light stimulates the brain's hippocampus, sweeping away age-related mental cobwebs in a hurry.
