Dr Helena Popovic: Boost your brain and get ahead

Most people work on building up their financial assets. But how many of us work on developing our greatest asset: our brain?

Neuroplasticity shows that the brain can change its own structure and function. It grows new cells and circuits in response to how we behave, think, eat, rest, challenge and reward ourselves.

Far more than passive victims of our genes, we can play an active role in how our brain develops and performs



This presentation distils the evidence and provides immediately applicable suggestions to help you:

Perform at your professional peak on a daily basis
Sharpen thinking, concentration and memory
Access untapped potential for creativity, learning and problem solving
Reduce risks of depression, anxiety and Alzheimer’s disease
Prevent the decline we mistakenly attribute to ageing

Dr Helena Popovic MBBS is a specialist in brain plasticity and lifestyle-based diseases. Combining her experience as doctor, researcher, Lifeline counsellor and fitness instructor, she shows how we can optimise performance in all areas of our lives – through education, not medication. Supporting her elderly father through dementia led to her inspiring book In Search of My Father. Helen is a graduate of medicine from the University of Sydney and founder of weight loss program Mission SlimPossible.
