The Brain Fog Fix: Reclaim Your Focus, Memory, and Joy in Just 3 Weeks by Mike Dow
3.0
This had some interesting ideas - some were things I’d heard before, some were new. The author looks at possible dietary, lifestyle and spiritual causes of “brain fog”. The spiritual aspect was interesting - as a Christian, some of the “spiritual” exercises sounded decidedly odd (and seemed kind of pointless to me), but maybe I should give them a go and reserve judgement until then. And some of the science that he is basing his various suggestions on is solid, while some seems a bit sketchy and could probably bear closer scrutiny to assess the study designs which he is using to base his ideas on.
In general an interesting read - I think the things I need to take from it are cutting down on my use of technology (and yes, that includes Goodreads!) and being more mindful in my use of it (perhaps not having 10 different windows open at once isn’t so helpful!) and trying some of the meditations from a Christian point of view. 3.5★
