Optimizing Cognitive Performance in the Morning Routine
By starting the day with a focused 90-minute work session after cognitive priming activities, followed by physical exercise, one can leverage the body's natural rhythms and cognitive peaks. Research shows that late morning hours are ideal for analytical and focused tasks due to the brain's optimal state for complex problem-solving. The combination of intense mental work followed by exercise enhances cognitive function and creativity. Exercise increases blood flow to the brain, provides oxygen and nutrients, and stimulates the production of BDNF, a key protein supporting brain plasticity and memory. This symbiotic relationship between mental and physical health highlights the importance of a well-structured morning routine for peak performance.
