Have you ever forgotten where you put your keys, reacted too quickly in an argument, or felt completely “zoned out” in a meeting? These moments may feel random, but neuropsychology, the science of how the brain influences thoughts, emotions, and behaviour,  can explain a lot about why we do what we do.

Anxiety is more than just feeling worried or stressed; it’s a complex interaction between our thoughts, emotions, and brain function. While occasional anxiety is a normal part of life, chronic or overwhelming anxiety can interfere with daily living, decision-making, and overall health. Understanding the link between anxiety and brain function can help us recognize what’s happening in the body and take steps toward better mental wellness.

Have you ever heard the saying, "You can't teach an old dog new tricks"? Well, it turns out that old saying isn't quite true — not when it comes to your brain! Thanks to something called neuroplasticity, your brain has an amazing ability to change, adapt, and grow throughout your life. Whether you're trying to improve your memory, develop new skills, or cope with difficult emotions, neuroplasticity shows that it's never too late to make positive changes in your brain.
