Neuroplasticity
The neural pathways in the brain have plasticity, meaning they can adapt and change. A lack of use accelerates cognitive decline. Conversely, exposure to new experiences and stimulating diverse brain functions helps the brain form new neural connections and reserves, which can defend against and delay cognitive deterioration.
Maintaining Overall Health & Reducing the Risk of Cognitive Impairment
Anything beneficial to cardiovascular health is also beneficial to the brain. Healthy blood vessels ensure that nutrients and oxygen are efficiently delivered to all parts of the body, including the brain, allowing it to function properly. Physical exercise, social interactions, and engaging in mentally enriching activities help maintain vascular health, combat depression, and relieve stress. A joyful and healthy mind and body contribute to lowering risk factors for cognitive impairment.
Meaningful Activities
Engaging in meaningful activities in daily life helps maintain positive emotions and motivation. For people living with dementia, these activities can improve mood, reduce behavioral issues, and help preserve existing abilities. Additionally, they foster a sense of self-worth and enhance overall quality of life.
