Brain health
From a very young age we are taught to care for our bodies. Yet brain health is frequently overlooked.
For each and every one of us, maintaining optimal brain health should always be a priority. From the moment you are born, your brain – the largest, most complex organ in your body – dictates how you interact with and make sense of the world around you. Your learning ability. Emotions. Moods. Logical decisions. Memory. Mental health and more. And what dictates your brain’s ability to effectively fulfil its role? The world around you.
Your diet, sleep habits, stress levels, exercise and even your relationships and sense of purpose are just some of the factors that can help or hinder your brain health. Drawing on IMI’s Integrated Healing Model, we can work with you to preserve and protect the wellbeing of your most important organ.
