What else can you do to help renew mental energy?
Besides using acupressure, Shift shares a number of ways to increase mental energy and focus. First on the list is to stop trying to "multitask," which it says is a myth. Simply focusing on the task at hand until it is done is less tasking on the brain. Also, removing clutter from your working space helps make you more focused. Making sure that the sound that surrounds you while you are working is not a distraction, but a help, is also important. Some people need silence, while others need music. Find out how you work best and capitalize on it. Finally, make sure you eat correctly. The vitamins, sugars and proteins you take in affect how well your brain concentrates and recalls information. All of these items are fairly simple to apply, but the benefits to be reaped can be huge. Mental energy is probably one of the earth's truly renewable energy resources.
