Mind is the power station of health.so we should keep it healthy by the following tips:


1. Build Confidence

    Identify your abilities and weaknesses together, accept them build on them and do the best with what you have.

2. Eat right, Keep fit

    A balanced diet, exercise and rest can help you to reduce stress and enjoy life.

3. Make Time for Family and Friends

    These relationships need to be nurtured; if taken for granted they will not be there to share life's joys and sorrows.

4. Give and Accept Support

    Friends and family relationships thrive when they are "put to the test".

5. Create a Meaningful Budget

    Financial problems cause stress. Over-spending on our "wants" instead of our "needs" is often the culprit.

6. Volunteer

    Being involved in community gives a sense of purpose and satisfaction that paid work cannot.

7. Manage Stress

    We all have stressors in our lives but learning how to deal with them when they threaten to overwhelm us will maintain our mental health.

8. Find Strength in Numbers

    Sharing a problem with others who have had similar experiences may help you find a solution and will make you feel less isolated.

9. Identify and Deal with Moods

    We all need to find safe and constructive ways to express our feelings of anger, sadness, joy and fear.

10. Learn to Be at Peace with Yourself

    Get to know who you are, what makes you really happy, and learn to balance what you can and cannot change about yourself.

Memory loss affects the practical side of life. Remembering how to get from your house to the grocery store or how to do the tasks that make up your job. Losing your memory means both losing your ability to live independently and not being able to remember your past experiences. It's not surprising, then, that concerns about cognitive decline ranks among the top fears people have as they age.

And there's no getting around the fact that the ability to remember does change with age. Many of these changes are normal, and not a sign of dementia. Unfortunately, some people have the more serious memory problems that are associated with dementia. If your memory is still healthy—even if you're forgetting a bit more than you'd like—now's the time to commit to protecting your brain from ill consequences.


My suggestion:: Always be positive and tension free( i know it is not possible) then do meditation and spend time with your family or friends. Select some few friends or relative members who can understand you and your problem.
