The Framework for Change

Making significant improvements in brain function can often be achieved through small lifestyle changes. A simple framework involves four fundamental choices: stop something, start something, do less of something, or do more of something. For instance, one might consider stopping unhealthy habits like smoking, starting beneficial activities such as meditation, or incorporating more physical movement into their daily routine.
