    This video was a great reminder to practice mindfulness throughout the day! Lately, I've been feeling anxious juggling all my daily tasks, and it's been a struggle to stay on top of everything. It would be really nice a video about it.

    Love your videos - so engaging and fun. Spot on with your timing too as this morning my brain and body wouldn't get going and it was only after lunch that I forced myself to get with the programme and crack on. The reason? Poor sleep last night and a very tiring day yesterday with a dental appointment and coppicing trees for volunteer work I do most of the afternoon. Wishing you a restful family vacation.

    Here's a 10-point summary if you have ADHD
    1) The brain requires 10x more energy than other organs despite being only 2% of body weight, making mental fatigue a physiological reality rather than a moral failing
    2) Mental fatigue manifests as brain fog, difficulty concentrating, taking longer on simple tasks, and increased irritability with minor annoyances
    3) There are two types: acute fatigue (short-term, relieved by rest) and chronic fatigue (longer-term, can lead to burnout)
    4) Physical causes include poor sleep and diet, while cognitive causes include intense focus for too long or trying to juggle too many tasks simultaneously
    5) Nutrition is crucial - the brain needs proper fuel through a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and healthy fats
    6) Quality sleep (7-9 hours) and proper hydration are essential for optimal brain function
    7) Exercise has been proven through numerous studies to positively impact mental health and cognitive function
    8) Getting tasks out of your head and into a system (digital or paper) helps reduce cognitive load and mental fatigue
    9) Time blocking and setting boundaries (learning to say no) are effective strategies for managing cognitive load
    10) Regular breaks and limiting multitasking are important - techniques like Pomodoro (25 minutes work, 5 minutes break) can help structure this effectively

    Great video. I would like to use Todoist as a calendar, but the task disappears when I mark it as complete. I would like it to stay just marked out with a line. That would make the calendar more useful for me.
