1. Anti-Aging Tips
for Your Brain
A regular cognitive workout can improve your concentration, comprehension and recall in
everyday life. The more you challenge your brain, the more brain cells and nerve
connection pathways you form. Instead of gray matter simply dying as you age, new cells
can be activated to grow at any age.
These brain workout routines are recommended to help curb mental slowing:
 Learn a new skill (playing an instrument, speaking a foreign language, etc.).
 Complete crossword puzzles and Sudoku.
 Participate in regular brain games (color match, word find, speed match, etc.).
 Play bridge, chess, or board and computer games.
 Sharpen your vocabulary through a daily words calendar or challenging
reading.
 Continue to socialize and verbalize by talking with others about world events
and issues important to you and your community.
