- 1: Biological Your brain is the most expensive real estate in your body. This section covers the essential guidelines for brain-healthy living. We review the core essentials of brain- healthy nutrition, exercise, relaxation, and well-being. This helps to decrease the risk of Alzheimer’s disease and other age-related illnesses.

Thoughts lie, they lie a lot, and it is often our uninvestigated negative thoughts that steal our happiness. Automatic Negative Thoughts (ANTs) invade your mind like ants at a picnic. In this powerful exercise, the group will learn effective tools for retraining their brain to be more positive.
