Mind Your Brain

Health Advisory for Senior Citizens


Aging is not a reason to lose brain ability.  The brain does not age like the body.  The brain starts to get older when you stop using it.  Remember if you don't use it, youll loose it!!!  At Agewell we recommend to our senior citizens that they incorporate small changes into their daily lives to exercise and stimulate the braiin.  


Some healthy activities to exercise the brain are:

• Play word and number games several times a week
• Switch things up - try different games  or try new foods
• Walk along differnt paths - see new sights and hear new sounds
• Exercise regularly
• Exercise your concentration - dont sleep with the tv on
• Add brain healthy foods to your diet
• Read as often as possible
• Explore more positive emotions

The brain can continue to grown and improve throughout your entire life if we exercise it . We want you to understand that overall brain fitness can be achieved by maintaining a variety of brain activities that stimulate it.
