Even if your brain has gotten flabby through bad habits and mental laziness, the authors show how to jump-start the rehabilitation process.
by Michael J. Gelb and Kelly Howell
Virtually everyone fears mental deterioration as they age. But in the past 30 years, neuroscientists have discovered that the brain is actually designed to improve throughout life. How can you encourage improvement?
This book presents practical, state-of-the-art evidence in this inspiring, fun-to-read action plan.
The authors have interviewed physicians, gerontologists and neuroscientists; studied the habits of men and women who epitomize healthy aging; and applied what they learned to their own lives. The resulting guidance — along with the accompanying downloadable Brain Sync audio program — can help you activate unused brain areas, tone mental muscles and enliven every faculty.
Even if your brain has gotten flabby through bad habits and mental laziness, the authors show how to jump-start the rehabilitation process. It is never too late to begin.
