Happy September Everyone!
Brooklyn and hospital life has been keeping me pretty busy, however a Canadian study recently sparked my passion for blogging again. They found that years of creative stimulation, such as seen in artists and musicians can help protect the brain against dementia. Check it out:

“Artists compared with non-artists are better protected, he added. “Due to their art, the brain is better protected [against] diseases like Alzheimer’s, vascular dementia, and even strokes. They have more reserve in their brain in order to give functions.”
So do yourself (and your brain) a favor: Get a little creative today!
