Welcome to
What’s It All About?
It’s about
keeping your
brain ( and
your memory)
‘Fit For Life’
We know that:
• our brains can be stimulated throughout life
• the best way to keep our brains stimulated and
make ‘new connections’, is through
progressive, on-going new learning
• when we keep our brains active and
stimulated, this also assists our memory
function – especially our short term memory.
• as well as an active lifestyle, with lots of new
learning, there are also simple, practical
exercises we can engage in to assist our
memory function. Think of it as a ‘Buy One..Get
One Free’ This is where the BrainFit Gym Comes In
