Sleep deprivation can impair memory and creativity, as well as learning and critical-thinking abilities.<\/p>\n Enjoy social activities:<\/strong> Maintaining healthy relationships provides important cognitive benefits. In addition, among older adults, an active social life can help reduce the risk of memory decline.<\/p>\n Stimulate your mind:<\/strong> Just like our bodies, the brain can also become \u201cout of shape\u201d when we do not exercise it.
