ENGLISH DESCRIPTION "Every person, if they set their minds to it, can sculpt their own brains." --SANTIAGO RAMON Y CAJAL
The brain is what makes you yourself, and it is much more moldable than you think: you actually sculpt it with each of your actions. In addition, recent research claims that not only do you have the ability to change, but you are doing so constantly. Each life experience shapes microscopic details of your neural substance. This book's objective is to help you better understand how your brain works, but above all, to teach you how to improve it. Taking care of your brain will not only help you prevent disorders such as dementia, Alzheimer's, or Parkinson's, but will also help you perform better in your day to day life. The health of the brain depends on that of the rest of the body, and to optimize its functionality we must first understand how diet, physical activity, or stress influence it, as well as the impact of social contact has on our mental health. Marcos Vazquez' recommendations will help you improve your ability to learn and remember, increase your resistance to mental illness, understand how to enhance brain adaptability, and improve your cognitive space.
