Healthy neurocognitive activities
Focus
Time in a mentally alert state of focused attention, while working or during non-professional activities that require full attention, such as studying or playing chess.
Relating
Time spent in social activities or in a relationship or interaction with others, in which a free and safe exchange of ideas and emotions is possible.
Exercise
Physical exercise, physical activity (leisure, sport, conditioning, professional) planned, structured and repetitive with the aim of improving or maintaining physical fitness, alone or with others.
Play
Time in spontaneous activities to have fun and relax, alone or with others, instead of achieving a goal. The use of humor, making jokes, laughing or playing with words is the most common form of play in adults.
Disconnection
Time of low vigilance, "disconnected" mood, coming from daydreams or associative thoughts without a specific intention, which can take place in a state of physical rest or automated activity.
Reflection
Time spent in a relaxed physical state and an awake mental state of mindfulness or focused on a particular object, thought, or activity to achieve a mentally clear and emotionally calm state.
Sleep
State of unconsciousness, inactivity and relaxation of the muscles of the body with the eyes closed, which can occur both at night and during the day (siesta, siesta). 7 hours of sleep per day is recommended for brain health.
Routine
Time spent in an awake, low-vigilance state of mind associated with engaging in largely automated or automatic behaviors (such as in predictable, repetitive, routine, or ritual activities).
