Brain Health Mentors

I had a wonderful time today discussing a brain health prescription with Dr. Krystal L. Culler, DBH, MA & the Virtual Brain Health Center for Brain Week. One of the prescriptions we discussed was taking an “awe” walk, spending time in nature and observing with “child-like wonder”. I thought I’d take my own prescription and did a 15 minute walk after our presentation. Wow! What beautiful things are waiting to be discovered!

Thank you Dr. Mary Frances-O'Connor for speaking to our group! Brain Health Mentors & the Virtual Brain Health Center appreciated this important conversation and are so grateful to our attendees all over the world that made our conversation and takeaways even richer after reading the book. Thank you!

What a fun year! Happy anniversary to the Neuro Nook. It’s been such a fun collaboration with Dr. Krystal L. Culler, DBH, MA and the Virtual Brain Health Center. We've had on amazing authors, had great discussions and learned so much about how to have better brain health and live a more beautiful life as well. So grateful for our attendees from 53 countries! Looking forward to this Thursday's discussion at 12:00 about the book Dopamine Nation by Anna Lembke. To register: https://lnkd.in/eXtPb3av

Thank you Dr. Fraser for appearing in the Neuro Nook book club. Your research and insights are so incredibly valuable. Thank you for highlighting an area of brain health that really needed to be brought to light.

This sweet group of people braved a torrential downpour & tornado warnings to come hear my talk on brain health yesterday! Some of the feedback I received: “Refreshing, inspiring, hopeful” “Outstanding presentation” “Motivating & empowering” “You are really special!” “My family should have been here to listen to this.” Some of the behaviors individuals shared they would do as a result of listening to my talk: “identify people I haven’t been in contact with”, “gives me the push to explore new places & events”, “I will walk more”, “I will drink more water & exercise”, “I will focus on being grateful”. Thank you St. Mark’s Village! You have a beautiful community of people & I enjoyed spending the morning with you!

Two weeks ago my daughter played Carnegie Hall! ???? It was a magical experience for the whole family. I praised my daughter for her talent, to which she replied, (& I absolutely ?? this) “I’m not talented, what I am is a really hard worker!” So so true! It’s hard work throughout our lives that reaps results. When we work hard for something it makes the accomplishment that much sweeter. Little tiny steps sometimes can lead to places you never could’ve dreamed of happening! Whether you are 15, 50, or 90 years old, never stop working towards goals & never stop dreaming. ??

I really enjoyed the discussion yesterday in our brain health book club, with Dr. Krystal Culler and the Virtual Brain Health Center, about how important movement is to our brain health. Thank you to all who attended. I always leave with so many ideas from all of you! A great quote that was in the book, "Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning to dance in the rain." Vivian Greene
