What did Academician Bekhterev to avoid a deep impoverishment of the mind in old age
For 9 years, I watched my grandmother slowly fade away. 43 years of experience in school and constant self-development did not help my beloved ba to stay sane. They really do say, mentality Sometimes incomprehensible. But are there ways to stay in a clear mind and memory even in old age? We'll talk about that today.
The principles of the brain are one of the most interesting scientific topics. Many different studies are devoted to it, and academician Vladimir Mikhailovich Bekhterev made a special contribution to its development.

Bekhterev Vladimir Mikhailovich. Doctor, scientist, physiologist, neurologist, psychiatrist, psychologist. The founder of the brain institute that bears his name. Bekhterev is the founder of reflexology and pathopsychology in our country. His work on brain function is a world scientific asset. He actively studied the psychology of personality and child formation. His work on hypnosis and psychoanalysis gave rise to modern psychology and psychoatry. His death was sudden, diagnosed with acute food poisoning. However, in Moscow there was a rumor that Bekhterev was poisoned, as the day before he gave advice to Stalin, about problems with dry hands and diagnosed him with paranoia. #Bekhterev

The eminent scientist predicted that only 20% of people will be able to die while keeping their minds. And that's where real happiness lies. And the rest will face a difficult fate and a long path of mental degradation. To enter the crog of the lucky, you need to immediately start working on yourself.
The concept of old age has managed to acquire many stereotypes that are rooted in society. We used to think that older people are often fastidious, lazy and passive. Once beloved hobbies are forgotten, the craving for self-development and knowledge of the world has faded, and the daily routine consists only of sleeping and watching TV.
Agree, this can hardly keep a clear mind. This requires constant stimulation and mental stress. The world always dictates its rules. In modern times, we must always be flexible. And this applies to both our life views and orientations, and actions.
A permanent manifestation of conservatism, stubbornness and excessive principledness is a sure way to lose your mental baggage. In turn, openness to the surrounding world, curiosity and willingness to change will always give rise to reflection. It does not matter what field of activity we are talking about.
I confess that I did not immediately understand when my grandmother’s condition began to deteriorate. It is not like a disease with its stages and symptoms. However, there are few warning signsWhich can be a kind of marker for you. If you notice this in the behavior of your grandparents or parents, it is time to take the initiative in your own hands.
First of all, experts recommend constantly learning something. The best interval for new beginnings is every 2-3 years. For example, you can take some courses and learn a new craft. Or to study an unusual topic yourself.
Surround yourself with young modern people. They will be able to share their experience with you, discover something unusual and informative. Children can also learn something new and interesting.
If you think that nothing new is happening, then you are just not looking well. The world is always changing, so you won’t miss it. Read newspapers and magazines. First, you learn a lot more than you do from TV. Second, reading stimulates the brain.
Learn foreign languages. Yes, in adulthood it is much more difficult. But this way you will train your memory. Who knows when the knowledge will come in handy. Also, do not forget about regular exercise.
The brain is a complex mechanism that needs constant training. And mentality It depends solely on the person himself. To live a happy old age, you need to work throughout life. Then your family will never have to remind you who they are. Trust me, it's really scary.
Have you ever faced such problems in your life? The topic is rather sensitive, but interesting. We're hoping for feedback. Thank you for staying with us!

- People are too sensitive to any criticism. Moreover, they are often offended and behave like children.
- There is no desire to learn anything new. This is often the case with modern technology.
- Problems with concentration begin. Therefore, hard and cognitive literature fades into the background. The priority is simple books with an uncomplicated plot that will soon be forgotten.
- There is no desire to strain the brain. This applies to the above literature and everything else. For example, if you want to watch a movie, it is always entertaining.
- People with mental impairment are often nostalgic. They see more meaning and joy in the past.
