A holistic approach to mental health involves incorporating healthy diets, regular exercise, quality sleep, stress management, and mental stimulation to support brain development and regeneration. For instance, sleep plays a vital role in promoting neurogenesis by enhancing neural progenitor cells in the hippocampus and regulating stress molecules like glucocorticoids.
Engaging in mentally stimulating activities, particularly those requiring moderate mental exertion, can increase growth factors like BDNF, IGF-1, and FGF-2, promoting the maturation of new neurons. By acknowledging signs of potential mental health issues like depression or anxiety, such as difficulty concentrating, anxiety or sadness, sleep disturbances, changes in eating patterns, and loss of interest in daily activities, individuals can take proactive steps towards mental well-being.
Frankie's recent video on Instagram highlights the importance of seeking help when symptoms persist for more than two weeks. By acknowledging these signs and taking proactive steps, individuals can break the cycle of negative emotions and cultivate a positive feedback loop that supports neurogenesis.
