The Brain is a complex and intricate structure. In fact, neuroscientists are still learning new things about the brain everyday! Here are some brain basics to get you started.
When you make a plan to respond to stress, rather than allowing your lower brain to react to stress, you build healthier habits over time! Always remember, your needs have value!
Tips for higher brain activation - We challenge you to be fearless and try it every day for the week!
