I don’t know if this helps. I started this year actively using diff parts of the brain. Doesn't take too much time, keeps the stress down, keeps the brain energy up, and it’s been fun. Meditation is a game changer, morning and evening. For physical exercise daily walks paired with pilates, weekend swimming, and/or hiking (weekend is more social oriented). Mental exercise 15 - 20 mins a day includes games - puzzles, chess, wordle, sudoku. I used to play Go as a kid but my brain is rusty now. New language on dualingo for 10 mins a day. Weekend more creative infusion art (sketches) and music (guitar) - at most 2 hrs over 2 days. The goal is to interconnect back as many neural pathways we used to have when we were younger and strengthen it through repetitions. Doesn’t take too much time, won’t fix everything but it keeps you at a more optimal level
