Parkinson’s Brain Fog: My 5 Favorite Hacks to Cut Through the Cloud

Bryce Perry | DOING LIFE TODAY Season 1 Episode 64

You ever walk into a room and forget why you went there? Or open the fridge and stare at it like it’s going to give you the answer? That’s Parkinson’s brain fog — and if you know, you know.

In this episode of Living with Parkinson’s: The Good, the Bad, and the Reality, I share my five favorite brain fog hacks — simple, real-life tricks that help me stay sharp when my brain decides to take a coffee break.

We’ll cover:

🧠 How movement clears mental clutter (even when you don’t feel like it)

📋 Why shrinking your to-do list can boost productivity

⏰ The reminders, whiteboards, and 3-task rule that keep me on track

😴 The “power pause” trick that beats burnout without turning into a nap marathon

🎵 And the sensory sparks — music, scents, humor — that wake up your brain when nothing else works

Plus, I share bonus community hacks, like dancing in the kitchen, using sticky notes everywhere, and one hilarious story about finding a TV remote in the fridge (don’t ask).

Stick around for the end — there’s a Bryce-ism that might just change how you think about fog forever.

Bryce-ism of the Episode:

“With Parkinson’s, brain fog doesn’t mean the lights are off — it just means the Wi-Fi signal is weak.”

⚠️ Important Note

This is my personal Parkinson’s journey—what works for me may not work for everyone. Parkinson’s is different for each person, and treatment plans should always be tailored to individual needs. Before making any changes to your medication or care, consult with your doctor or healthcare provider.
