CYCLE 2024 | Memory and cognitive stimulation
Elderly
A new cycle of the course begins whose main objective is the mental health of the elderly.
This brain stimulation program is based on cognitive reserve and neuronal plasticity. It is aimed at improving mental performance through exercises and skills training.
Group tasks that are carried out promote better cognitive performance, stimulate and reinforce attention, memory, language, reasoning, calculation, planning and mental organization.
After we retire and take off the pressures of work, we use a minimal percentage of neurons. There is scientific evidence that cognitive stimulation acts as a protective barrier that stops the development of cognitive deterioration and dementia.
Working in a group will also improve mood, self-esteem and enhance the consultation that provides the entire group.
