    Brain fog lifting

    Little witchy ways to help with brain fog (UPG). Brain fog is basically when you struggle with mental clarity, memory, focus, low energy, grumpiness, and the like. It’s often associated with chronic or mental illness. It’s no fun!

    Using Crystals:

    Pick a clear crystal, like quartz. Hold it to your temples/forehead and let it draw out the fog. Picture the fog being pulled from your head and swirling into the crystal, and the coldness of the crystal bringing clarity to your mind. (You can also do this by touching a crystal in your pocket if you’re in public!)

    Using Water:

    Dip your fingers in snow/moon water (tap water will do if needed) and touch any points on your face that you feel like the fog is affecting it (if that makes sense?!) I like to do: a drop on my chin, a drop on each cheekbone, one on my forehead and on both temples, and on my eyelids as well. With each drop, say a word you would like to bring back (clarity, focus, understanding, comprehension, memory, retrieval, ~ability to see~).

    Using Air:

    Get fresh air (even through a cracked window) and breathe deeply for one minute. Envision it swirling in your mind and clearing away any muckiness. 

    Using Sigils:

    Find sigils for brain fog, clarity, memory, etc. and draw them in a place that you feel connects to your mind. For me, it’s my pulse points on my inner wrist (since drawing sigils on your face can be a hassle!

    Non-witchy advice:

    (Aka boring “have you thought about changing your entire lifestyle?” stuffs)

    • Evaluate your diet, and consider if there may be any foods influencing it. Have you been tested for food allergies? It’s worth considering!
    • It can be influenced by other physical or mental factors, and is worth talking to a doctor about—especially if it’s unexplained or a new symptom.
    • Try to do light exercise at least once a day. For me this involves a little extra walking on campus, or some stretches in the morning.
    • Less sugary drinks, more water. 
    • Give yourself at least 10-30 minutes before bed to wind down/think about the day/de-stress - even if it means you go to bed a little bit later. It can help sleep if you’re really busy and stressed.
    • Get a planner/make a to-do list. 
    • Getting up at the first alarm is better for your clarity than hitting snooze six times (but I am guilty of the latter).
