A healthy mind
The brain is the most fascinating part of our body. Even though there has been all medical research, n1. really understands everything about it. Like the rest of our body, our brain needs to be cared for. The ways that we keep our mind healthy can be quite s2.. Getting a good night’s sleep, eating a balanced diet and taking deep breaths are all important methods of looking after both your body and your brain.
Many people think their brain will slow down with age and their memory will get worse as a result. The t3. is, just like your body, you can also improve your mind. I’ve found I can improve my memory by i4. what I need to remember. For example, if I’m going shopping and I need bread, milk and a birthday card for my brother, I form pictures of a loaf of bread, a carton of milk with a cow on the front and a birthday card with a football on it.
The same kind of method can be used with important dates. If you have a picture in your mind of a particular event, it’s much e5. to remember than just a number on a calendar.
Another way of improving your mind is to make sure you r6. visit new places and have new experiences. Traveling more often has much more long-term benefits than you would have ever expected. Personally I find learning English is a great way to keep the brain working, but communication with others in any language is important. Having a c7. is much better for your brain than staring at a computer screen or at other people talking on TV.

A girl in my street always bullied me and she made me lose all of my friends. I tried everything but she would not stop. I tried making any friends because most people already thought I was strange. Then I called Young Minds and a man gave really good advice and she did not bully me ever again. | |
I have large eyes and I get bullied because of it. It started Year I and since then I have been upset about it. Just a week ago I saw a Young Minds advertisement online. I called the number and then I talked to a lady. After the 54-minute talk I finally felt great about myself. I am happy I called them and I wish I had done it before. I stoop up to all of those awful people and the bullying has stopped. I really look forward to going to school now. | |
I was getting bullied, but I didn’t feel comfortable talking to my parents because they weren’t helping me and being supportive. So I talked to an amazing counselor and it has changed my life. I was so happy to be able to talk to someone who listened. Thank you Young Minds and thank you Miranda Kerr. | |
