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:
- Physical Exercise
- Mental Exercise
- Nutrition
- 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!!

I think of the four brain functions, nutrition is the one key component that I need help with. I am great with stress management and eat healthy, but find that additions to my diet such as sugar and fatty foods really bog my brain down. I hope I can use advice like this to make some changes to my life!
