The Importance of Brain Health

Brain health isn’t just about avoiding illness—it’s about thriving every day. It comprises of mental, physical and spiritual well-being. Let’s explore how small habits can make a big difference to the most powerful organ in your body.

Join us on August 3, 2025, Sunday, for a MOTIVATE Community special session titled: "The Importance of Brain Health" with Karishma Valliappan, MSc Neuroscience—a dynamic Brain and Mental Health Coach and founder of MindTalks.

Your brain is the command centre of your entire life. It controls how you think, feel, move, and connect with others. Just like we care for our heart or our skin, your brain also needs daily attention to stay sharp, balanced, and strong—especially in today’s fast-paced, high-stress world.

Brain health isn’t just about avoiding disease. It’s about thriving—having better focus at work, managing emotions with ease, sleeping well, remembering what matters, and living with purpose. When your brain is healthy, your entire life works better.

In this 90-minute session, we’ll explore what brain health really means, how daily habits impact it, and simple science-backed ways to take care of the most powerful organ in your body.

Key Points/Takeaways for the Audience:
