Brain

 

The topic of the brain is one that can be seen through many different lenses. It can be in reference to the anatomical structure, mental health, work efficiency, etc. Regardless of the approach, our brain is at the epicenter of how we view and experience the world both within ourselves and outside of ourselves. As a foundational element of wellness, how we utilize all of the foundations of wellness directly impacts our brain. Conversely, how we take care of our brain directly impacts how we experience the other foundations of wellness.
