@nealkshah: People who never get dementia all make the same decision within 30 minutes of waking up. Neurologists have been studying the morning routines of cognitively sharp adults in their eighties and nineties and the pattern is undeniable.
I was hoping it would be ‘have a cup of tea and spend half an hour looking at TikTok’

But what if you wake up before the sun comes up? What should you do?

My 97 yo mom wakes up at 5:30am. Fixes her bed, feeds her cat and makes her coffee. Every single day. She may make her own breakfast or get dressed and head downstairs at her independent living home. She gets moving and I think that’s the most important thing.

What about us who have jobs who get up try to work out and do not see the sun in that first hour because the sun is not even up

so I'd dementia higher in Northern countries where in winter you get 0-3h of sunlight per day, and never light outside when you get up.

My dogs are the reason I’ve been protecting my brain I guess. They wake me up every morning for walkies.

I wake at dawn. Get a cup of tea watch the sunrise. I go to bed early at 8 pm. This routine is better for me. After years of late nights this brings clarity. I function much better.

Living on the Equator rn. So blessed with the same schedule of sunset and sunrise. I must be more discipline from now on. It has also the best purple and orange sunset.
