Does your Brain need a tune-up?

I'll be talking about the Brain Ready podcast in a future episode, but I thought I'd add it to the blog page so you can check it out.

Brain Ready is a brain health website that has a series of resources to help keep diseases like alzheimers and dementia away.

According to the website, the brain starts its physical decline about the age of 20, and this has an impact on work, skills and quality of life.

By using things such as simple arithmetic (adding and subtracting small numbers) and guided visualisations to strengthen your spatial imagination the BrainCast podcast helps activate areas of your brain you wouldn't normally use on a day-to-day basis.

Visit the Brainready website at http://www.brainready.com/, and you'll find the podcast episodes on the home page...

You can also subscribe to the BrainCast podcast on iTunes.
