Did you know that the way your brain ages is an indirect outcome of the habits and lifestyle your parents adopted? 

We have heard of soldiers having developed PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) after being on the battlefield. The violence, blood and gore get to some and it’s difficult for them to move on, which is where therapy and counselling come in. However, getting PTSD is not a blanket rule for all soldiers. There are some who are able to go to war and return, without any trauma. So what is it that makes these soldiers more tolerable to such unforgiving events, as opposed to others? 

It’s all god to do with your brain reserve 

A brain reserve is an extra cushion for your brain, that helps you deal with any difficulties that life throws your way. So basically the more brain reserve you have, the more likely you are to deal with tricky situations in a healthy way. And the more that happens, the more likely is your brain to age better and keep issues such as memory loss, depression, anxiety and others at bay. 

But what is it that increases or decreases your brain reserve? 

While the habits and lifestyle you indulge in are key factors into determining how much brain reserve you have, surprisingly, it has a lot to do with your parents’ past way of living too! 

Yes kids, you finally have a chance to put the blame on your folks for a change. 

Growing studies have shown that kids whose parents adopted healthier lifestyle habits such as exercising, eating right, not drinking/smoking, and being stress-free, have an increased brain reserve as opposed to parents who did just the opposite of this and led stressful lives. 

In a nutshell, even before you were born, your parents were laying the foundation of your overall physical and mental health. 

Once you are born, your brain’s capacity to increase or decrease its reserve is a life-long process. So the habits you adopt directly impact the way your brain reserve works and how it ages. 

This brings us to brain ageing. 

If you lead a wholesome life, are devoid of stress and take up good habits that benefit your mental and physical health, your brain will age slower and your brain reserve will increase. 

However, if you were brought up in a stressful home environment or faced domestic abuse, your brain most likely has started ageing even faster than you and has a decreased reverse. It’s probably even lower if you smoke marijuana or have suffered from a brain injury. 

And when that happens, you are more prone to suffering from mental health issues such as depression, anxiety etc., which in turn accelerate your brain’s ageing process. 

So what is the one sure-short way to ensure that your brain’s reserve and age is intact? 

The answer is simple- brain training! 

Our brain works in patterns. These patterns are formed as a result of learned fears and habits, trauma, injury, or birth defects. Irrespective of the cause for dis-balance of brainwaves and fixed patterns, these can be changed with the help of brain training. 

For example, your habits like walking, cycling, using your smartphone, driving, etc. are a result of neural pathways formed in the brain with repetition. These have become fixed patterns. 

The more these pathways are used, the stronger they become. 

Therefore, your tendency to get stressed or anxious in situations has also over time, now become a habit. Each time you are faced with a tricky situation, your brain reacts with stress and anxiety. 

And our tendency to get anxious, stressed, overwhelmed, or angry is a learned behaviour operating in fixed patterns.  Your behaviour is governed by your brainwave patterns which are operating on a set of neural pathways. Only when these pathways are interrupted or new suitable pathways are formed, does your behaviour change.

With brain training technology Neurofeedback, you can break this pattern

Your brain possesses a unique quality called neuroplasticity. This allows your brain to be trained at any age. When the old unsuitable pattern is interrupted, and a new neural pathway is formed, new behaviours emerge and issues get resolved. It’s as simple as that! 

What exactly is Neurofeedback?

With the technology called Neurofeedback. It is a non- invasive technology which was originally developed by NASA to train their astronauts to withstand the pressures of space travel. This technology has now evolved into an advanced system that not only helps a person access the ‘peak performance zone’ but also helps alleviate numerous issues like depression, stress, OCD, ADHD, dyslexia, autism, anxiety issues, migraine, headaches, insomnia, and more.

So don’t let your brain become older than you! Experience a youthful, healthy, joyful and energetic brain with Neurofeedback, right away!
