A different diet
There was a time when Ana Paula and Vicente were so
overweight and had little enthusiasm to play.
The mother took them to the doctor, and tests showed
that the children had anemia. They took medicine and
changed their diet, eating more fruit and vegetables. At
the beginning it was difficult because they were very
fond of eating snacks and treats. Now they are full of
disposition, thanks to the healthy diet.
It is the same for our brain. Nowadays, information
arrives by mobile, internet, television, social
networks. There are several groups on WhatsApp, games,
videos and a large number of fun options. We want to
participate in everything, interact with everyone, and
we end up saturated with mental fatigue.
How to solve it?
Doing a brain diet.
In this diet, we selected some TV shows, WhatsApp
groups, games and videos to watch and interact with. We
set a daily time for each of the chosen options.
It is important to insert these activities with others
that do not require as much concentration and mental
effort. These include ball games, swimming, playing with
your pet, walking, cycling, skateboarding, and so on.
Reading, doing crossword puzzles, drawing and painting
are other good examples.
We must not be alienated and isolated, even in a group,
to each one monitor their own device. It is essential to
promote the exchange of ideas and true dialogue. Healthy
family life with grandparents, uncles, etc. It also
requires its space.
The harm is not in technology, but in the way we make
use of it. All excess is harmful. Used sparingly, it is
a great tool to make our lives easier.
Nature gives us beautiful landscapes, starry skies and
beautiful sunsets. We are invited to pray and thank God
for all we receive every day.
We should not close our eyes to the real important
things.
