How do you keep your mind sharp and reduce mental fatigue? We’ve all had the situation where we’re overloaded, overwhelmed, and don’t have the mental fortitude and energy to get through the day. I couldn’t be happier to have an extraordinary guest, Dr. Mehmet Oz, with us today. Dr. Oz has 9 Daytime Emmy Awards for The Dr. Oz Show. He has authored over 400 original publications, book chapters, and medical books, has received several patents, and performs several dozen heart surgeries per year.  You can say that he keeps a very busy schedule between his show, podcast, traveling, speaking, seeing his patients, and operating heart surgeries. So how does he do it all? In this episode, we’re going to talk about how he keeps his mind sharps and strategies to keep fatigue at bay. ** Do you want to stay up to date with every new episode and get my brand new Kwik Brain Accelerator Program?

The food we eat matters to our gray matter—no matter how much work we put into our learning, it won’t be effective if our biology is suffering from poor food choices. But we don’t have to overhaul our diet overnight—small changes to your diet, one food at a time, will add up over time and can help you to achieve better health and a brighter brain without disrupting your daily life. I’m excited to welcome today’s guest, Liana Werner-Gray. Liana is the author of three books—Cancer Free with Food, 10 Minute Recipes, and Earth Diet. She’s here to tell how we can make brain-friendly snacks that are both nutritious and delicious for us to eat! In this conversation, we’ll hear about Liana’s health journey and explain why food is so important to your health. We’ll give you some tips for changing your food habits and take you through a quick brain-friendly chocolate brownie recipe! ** Do you want to stay up to date with every new episode and get my brand new Kwik Brain Accelerator Program?

Today’s question for the Kwik Brain community is how do you fix a broken heart? I’m excited to welcome today’s guest, Dr. Guy Winch. Guy’s books have sold millions of copies and been translated into 26 different languages, and his TED Talks have been seen by people all over the world. Heartbreak is a challenge so many of us face and Guy is here to talk us through it. Heartbreak can make us crazy—there is no other experience that can make people do things completely out of character. It causes deep grief, and pain, and can cause our brain to perceive the relationship inaccurately. The good news is that by learning to override our natural brain responses, we can teach ourselves to heal and come out stronger on the other side. In this conversation, we’ll define romantic heartbreak, explain why heartbreak can manifest like an addiction and how heartbreak affects our mind. We’ll give you some practical ideas for getting through heartbreak, and offer advice for those of you wanting to help a loved one who might be going through heartbreak. ** Do you want to stay up to date with every new episode and get my brand new Kwik Brain Accelerator Program?

They have helped thousands of people around the world build the habit of journaling and made the habit accessible and sustainable.
