Well, it’s the end of yet another year. It seems like the older I get, the faster they come and go.

It’s been just over one year ago this month that I started blogging about brain games and brain fitness. I sit here now writing what will be my last post of not only this year, but of the last decade.

In my research on brain fitness, I learned about The 4 Pillars of Brain Health from Alvaro Fernandez, SharpBrains’ co-founder and Chief Executive Officer. These 4 pillars form the foundation of everything you need to know and do in order to keep your brain healthy and fit.

The 4 Pillars of Brain Health are:

  1. Physical Exercise
  2. Mental Exercise
  3. Nutrition
  4. Stress Management

As you and I think about this last year, and plan for the next, we need to evaluate if we’ve made any progress with respect each of these 4 Pillars. We need to evaluate where we’re at in relation to where we want to be so we can make course adjustments.

Because these 4 items are Pillars (or supports), any weakness in any one of them can cause overall weakness of the system (your brain health) as a whole. It’s important then, as we plan for 2010, that we include activities and actions that incorporate *each* of these 4 Pillars.

So, where are you at? Are you including activities and actions in your life for 2010 that include each of the 4 Pillars?  I hope you do.. And so does your brain!

Happy New Year, and we’ll see you next year!!
