As you celebrate this day, don't forget to tap into our free summer activities 🌞 to incorporate brain health into your plans. Communities need a deep sense of connection and support in order to thrive. As you gather with friends and family, help create a sense of mutual belonging that will shape your community. 🤼 Connect with new people and share your way of thinking. 👂 Listen to understand, rather than just waiting for a turn to speak. 💙 Seek out similarities and common ground, especially among differences. 😮 Be aware of your individual biases so that you can make considerate and well-informed choices.

"Brain health is the next energy source. In the same way that we are now rapidly moving from a fossil economy to a renewable energy economy, the next big change in health and well-being is related to the brain and neurology." Thanks to Mika Pyykkö Kaisa Hartikainen for the wonderful time in Finland. https://lnkd.in/gYXmwiXU

This lovely article from Glenn Hunter with MySweetCharity captures the amazing energy from our 25th Anniversary Gala. All year, we are celebrating the tremendous advances in the science and practice of proactive brain health over the last 25 years.

We are working to implements the amazing ideas generating by this group. Stay tuned for more…
