Up your interpreting game through improving your brain health

Your brain is involved in everything you do!
When your brain is unhealthy, it negatively impacts your memory, mood, health, processing time, and overall feelings of wellness. To keep your brain (and body) healthy, you have to prevent or treat the 11 major risk factors that can steal your mind. If you take preventative steps to keep your brain healthy now, you may fend off the onset of disorders such as dementia or memory loss in the future. This will also positively impact your interpreting ability because, when your brain functions optimally, your ability to hold information in your brain, process it, and experience physical stamina greatly improve. Come and learn how to improve your physical and mental health by improving your brain health.

Goals:
*Learn a mnemonic to help remember risk factors, reduce brain deterioration and improve brain, physical and mental health functioning
*Learn about alternative approaches and supplements
*Develop their “why” for making changes
*Identify strategies based on risks and brain type
*Practice activities to reduce stress and improve mental alertness
