Cool Down Your Mind

Without proper rest, the brain quickly runs out of power. Though it weighs only about three pounds, it consumes nearly 20 percent of the energy we need each day. If you stay awake for 24 hours straight, the glucose supply to your brain drops by around 6 percent. The result? You lose the desire to tackle complex thoughts and instead crave only simple, easy ones.
The brain doesn’t just run the body—it shapes our emotions, moods, and even the hidden corners of our mind. To keep it charged, it needs rest, oxygen, glucose, and a cool environment. Sleep is the best gift you can give it. Deep, refreshing sleep restores your brain like nothing else. That’s why people say, “clear your head” or “cool off your mind.” Taking time to pause and reset is the surest way to prevent mental burnout.
