SUMMARY:In Conversation with Dr Norman Swan
DESCRIPTION:(For adults)\n\nJoin us as Dr Norman Swan discusses his new book\, The Brain Cliff\, with Sasha Wasley.\n\nThe Brain Cliff will change how you think about brain ageing and give you new ways to keep away from the edge.\n\nWhat many of us fear\, especially as we hit our forties and fifties\, is not being as quick of mind. Not remembering as well as we used to. By our 60s and 70s we worry there's nothing we can do and that we are falling helplessly into an abyss which leads to dementia.\n\nDr Norman Swan\, one of Australia's most trusted doctors\, shows us that we've been thinking about brain ageing the wrong way. It doesn't need to be about decline and deficit. It's about how to help our brains adapt\, become resilient and maintain cognitive function - and it's much more than what we eat\, how we exercise or our genes.\n\nDr Swan has interviewed people from around the world in their 90s and 100s who still have remarkable cognitive function. These cognitive super-agers have very different life stories\, but it turns out that underneath they're pretty much the same\, with lessons that will help us all in our 40s\, 50s\, 60s\, 70s and beyond.\n\nBooks will be available for purchase on the day courtesy of Dymocks Midland Gate.\n\nBookings are essential for this free event. Light refreshments will be available. You are encouraged to bring your own cup for tea/coffee or water.\n\nPlease let us know if you have any access requirements.\n\nPlease remember to cancel your booking via Humanitix or by contacting the library on 9290 6755 or email gills@mundaring.wa.gov.au if you are unable to attend on the day. Places can then be released for someone else to enjoy.
