While some degree of memory change is a normal part of aging, research shows there are effective strategies and skills you can use to help you remember the things that are important to you. Does this sound familiar? Did I turn off the stove? Where did I put my glasses? What was I about to do? When is his birthday? What was it that they told me the other day? Please join us at the Gordon Howard Centre 384 Eveline Street in Selkirk. You will understand what memory is and how it changes with age. Uncover which factors can impact your memory for the better or for the worse. Explore lifestyle changes that can help improve your memory. Practice memory strategies. Improve your ability to recall everyday things. Build confidence in your memory. The program was developed for older adults but adults of all ages are welcome to attend. If you are experiencing normal age-related memory changes, or want to learn to protect and improve your brain health, join us.
