Can the Brain Change? A New Way of Looking at It

8 Comments

When we talk about changing the brain, exercise tends to come up over and over again.

Just take a peek at my last couple of blog posts (especially this one), and you’ll see just how important keeping active can be for a strong, healthy brain.

But sometimes it takes more than just talking about research to get people moving.

Often, another way of looking at it can really drive home how important exercise really is to brain health.
So, here’s a different way of getting the message across. It’s creative, and a just a little bit quirky.

Let me know what you think.

Sometimes it just takes a different way of looking at it to really understand the extraordinary effects that exercise can have on your brain, and your health.

Please go ahead and share this video. Post it on your Facebook page, Tweet about it, email it to your friends. I want to make sure as many people know about the brain benefits of exercise as possible.

It could change so many lives.

    Thank you so much for doing this important and needed brain series especially with all the awareness around brain injury. I’ve experienced 4 mild/traumatic brain injuries including brain surgery. As a psychotherapist and brain injury strategist/coach I’ve worked very closely with my clients helping them heal the emotional trauma that lingers long after the physical brain has healed. I just started my first blog “Women and Brain Injury” writing about “The Invisible Injury”

    Thank you so much for your wonderful series.
    My mother moved out of her own home, where she was still mowing the lawn and walking each day to my sister’s house, to a retirement village.
    There she had no lawn to mow and she had to drive her car to visit my sister. In less than 5 years she started showing signs of early dementia and now 8 years on, is in full-time care. When she stopped exercising she gained weight and she lost her balance as well, so had many falls including head injuries. With the dementia and brain trauma she stopped eating healthily which exacerbated her decline. The benefits of regular exercise cannot be over-esteminated methinks.
    Every blessing to you.

    I agree with Barbara from Croton… Find the piece clever but reminiscent of those “snake oil” videos that take you down a merry path to parting with your money! Re: the content, GREAT! As a PT (and student of brain health- family Alzheimers and mood disorders) I have been singing this song for years! Exercise ( being physically active) just seems to be the bottom line for all that ails you. Keep moving!
    Thanks for all the great series 🙂

    Cute visual which made its point. My only objection is that reminds me of the ‘drawing’ ads on the Internet; it looks and sounds (voice-wise) very similar, although the message, of course, is very different. Thanks!
