I now practise meditation regularly, to focus and manage my mind.

Insufficient sleep leads to impaired logical reasoning, poor decision making, memory loss, poor attention, and slower reaction times

Your brain was very adaptable when you were younger, but to maintain that you have to train your brain to learn new things because your brain now operates on a ‘use it or lose it’ basis.
