Blender’s Notes Mental Sharpness Capsules:
Steep Me Self Help Tea combinations are a wonderful way to get health benefits outside of the standard tea leaf. What is Mental Sharpness ~ Acuity? Mental acuity refers to being mentally sharp. If you are mentally sharp, you have an excellent memory, and you find it easy to complete different tasks. A lack of mental acuity can be detrimental to your health. You may forget important things, lack the focus to perform specific tasks, and struggle to concentrate. As a result, you become a shell of your former self. Sadly, the mind gets weaker as we get older. Most people suffer a dip in mental acuity, which is why you need to focus on staying mentally sharp. What are the benefits of doing this? Why do we need to care about mental acuity so much? Well, here are some reasons: Sharpen your mind ~ Increase your independence ~ Improve your attentiveness ~ Maintain an excellent memory ~ Focus on what is important ~ Increase your ability to process information.
What is Mental Acuity? ~~ We often describe mental acuity as being mentally “sharp,” but what does that mean? Our mental acuity is the summation of our mental processing power. We rely on our mental acuity for everything we do. Mental acuity can be broken down into four principal areas that influence our overall “sharpness.” 1- Information Processing ~ This is a hugely crucial factor as your brain’s ability to store, record, and make use of information affects how we make every decision. 2 – Memory Storage ~ Your ability to remember information is dependent on your information processing power. Your brain must discern between essential information and the things it can forget. Our memories are notoriously fallible, but we can improve them by taking care of our mind. 3 – Attention ~ Our ability to focus on a task and account for incoming external stimulation is central to what we deem our attention. Some people are better at homing in on something to focus their attention while blocking out distractions. Attention and focus can be improved with practice methods such as meditation. Multitasking, or trying to apply focus to two or more things at once, can lead to inferior performance on the tasks. It is arguable if concentrating our full attention on two things at once is even possible. 4 – Situational Judgment ~ Making sound decisions based on our best judgment in situations is central to how well we operate in our everyday lives. Choosing the best decisions to attain desired outcomes is a valuable skill that some are better at than others. Situational judgment is especially important in environments where every second counts. These are the building blocks of mental acuity, and we can improve upon them with practice and taking the best care of our minds and bodies.
What Causes a Drop in Mental Acuity? Our mental acuity can be a fragile thing, especially as we age. There are some things that can cause mental acuity to decline. ~ Genetics ~ Neurodegenerative genetic diseases such as dementia can quickly cause a spiral in a person’s mental acuity. Unfortunately, these diseases are incurable with medication, but we can postpone the effects of these with healthy practices. ~Drugs or Medication ~ Both legal and illegal drugs can alter your mind permanently, sometimes contributing to a mental decline over time. Many prescription medications can lower acuity in the short term, but the benefits are more important than a temporary drop in mental acuity. ~ Environmental Factors ~ External factors can affect our mental acuity as well, such as our air and water quality. Studies have shown that access to poor qualities of sunlight, air, and water can lead to mental degeneration. Our diet, physical activity, choice of other activities all plays a part in how sharp our minds are. With a good diet, plenty of exercise, and activities like reading, we can stay more mentally acute for longer. ~ Blood Circulation ~ Poor blood circulation can cause a drop in mental acuity. Improper blood circulation will effectively starve the brain over time. ~ Circadian Rhythms ~ Sleep and our circadian rhythm play a vital role in how acute we are every day. Getting the proper amount of sleep each night will help keep you at the highest levels of acuity. Mental Acuity: A Guide to Staying Mentally Sharp | Magic Mind
This combination of herbs helps the body with keeping mental focus and removes brain fog to help function throughout the day. This is a great all-inclusive tea for enhancing brain health and function. Perfect way to start your day! We based this tea on a light bodied Chinese sencha green tea which has great healthy benefits and high antioxidants making it an ideal choice for anyone looking for a natural way to improve their mental clarity and focus. Green tea is also an excellent source of the amino acid l-theanine, which has mood-boosting abilities. L-theanine is an amino acid that has been associated with and has beneficial psychotropic effects, most notably reducing anxiety and stress, and helps promote healthy moods, improves symptoms of depression, enhances gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), a neurotransmitter that helps to regulate brain excitability and calms over-firing in the brain which leads to feeling calm. We also included Brahmi. Brahmi – an ayurvedic herb to help with brain health, enhance cognitive thinking, and protect the brain from deterioration. Brahmi is a brain tonic and is valued for its ability to improve memory and cognitive processes. It contains active compounds called bacosides that promote neuronal communication and protect against oxidative stress. These mechanisms are thought to contribute significantly to enhanced learning abilities and memory retention. Ginseng because it is best renowned for offering an energy boost and greater mental sharpness. It has a stimulant in it that helps to promote blood circulation by keeping capillaries clean and dilated and is one of the best teas for increasing our focus on tasks. It provides a lot of energy and keeps us concentrated long enough for us to be efficient. Gingko Biloba was added because it is best for memory improvement. This herb has been shown to have the ability to protect nerve cells, causing a positive effect on patients with dementia and Alzheimer’s. Rosemary because antioxidants such as rosmarinic acid and carnosic acid can help increase the level of acetylcholine is what makes it an effective herb in improving your memory. Acetylcholine is the main transmitter of neural signals.
We also added Damiana. Damiana contains flavonoids, essential oils, tannins, and alkaloids. Among the most notable compounds are damianin, arbutin, and gonzalitosin I. These phytochemicals are believed to interact with various systems in the body, including the nervous system and endocrine system, contributing to damiana’s wide range of potential health benefits. Damiana helps reduce anxiety and manage stress. This anxiolytic effect may be due to its influence on neurotransmitter systems and its potential to modulate the stress response. Cognitive enhancement and memory improvement are also areas where damiana shows promise. Some studies suggest that damiana may have neuroprotective properties, potentially helping to preserve cognitive function and protect against age-related mental decline. This aligns with traditional uses of damiana as a brain tonic and memory enhancer. Next, we also include Ashwagandha. Ashwagandha is a powerful adaptogen renowned for its ability to reduce stress while promoting overall well-being. The herb works by lowering cortisol levels—a hormone that plays a significant role in stress response—thus helping to maintain emotional balance and cognitive performance during challenging times. Sage because it can bolster cognitive skills and may play a role in reducing the risk of neurodegenerative diseases. Its therapeutic potential is being examined for memory enhancement and Alzheimer’s treatment, reflecting sage’s enduring significance in the pursuit of mental clarity. Holy Basil, because of its ability to help the body adapt to stress, is particularly beneficial for the brain, creating the right conditions for mental performance. Holy Basil contains ursolic acid and rosmarinic acid, which can actively support neurotransmitter function, leading to better memory and quicker thinking. Finally, we added Gotu Kola. Gotu Kola is often referred to as a “brain herb” due to its long history of use in enhancing cognitive functions. It contains the natural extracts of an herb known as Centella Asiatica which can help to improve mental performance and increase alertness while providing a calming effect that reduces stress and helps to create a focused state of mind. What a great blend to keep you on task!
