Brain Enrichment Course at Orinda Community Center, Tuesdays Sep 3 - Oct 22, 10 - 11:30 AM 

A major objective of this course is for participants’ learning to transfer to tasks of daily living such as attention, word-finding, remembering names, and planning. Research shows that continued participation in mentally stimulating activities throughout the lifespan can help slow cognitive decline. Learn about lifestyle practices for maintaining brain health. Learn strategies for improving attention, mindfulness, speed of processing, and memory. Socialize while engaging in exercises to strengthen the brain’s processes of working memory, verbal fluency, long term memory, reasoning, problem solving, and creativity. This course is not intended for people who have dementia or Alzheimer’s as the course materials will be a challenge. The class is $60 + $25 for material fees. Lamorinda Village will cover the class fee ($60). Members are responsible for the material fee.
