My mom had dementia and told me she loved me every single day we spent together until her last days on earth!I loved her beyond words!beyond words and told her so! Earth. I miss her terribly! 😢
I was in a major accident 12 yrs ago, I started saying I love you to my son, husband and friends all the time now. My 33 yr old son ends every call with I love you!❤
Dear Mel, I have been listening to your podcast since day one, but this is one of the rare times I was actually able to watch it. I want to Thank You and Dr. Wendy for one of the BEST interviews ever. It was educational, motivating and so wonderfully emotional that the tears are still flowing. My Mom had dementia and passed away almost a year ago. She was 94. And no matter what, the last three words we said before we hung up the phone were “I love you”.
If you ever listen to anything while reading comments, let it be this - find unveiling your hidden potential by bruce thornwood, then come back and thank me
I literally cried the moment Dr Wendy told about her parents..the 'I love you' phrase we tell our parents is not an ordinary expression, it's a powerful and emotional sign of deep love, compassion and gratitude..we won't be here today without them..they may not be forever with us so treasure every moment with them..create sweet lasting memories with them when they're still here...what a podcast..thank you Mel for bringing Dr Wendy to the show..❤
My Dad had Dementia and when asked by his two sisters who came to visit in his lasts days if he wanted anything he said he wanted 5000 kisses. ❤ He told each one of us that he loved us before he died in 2019 and we treasure how lucky we were to be able to be with him when he died 😢🤍🕊️ Miss him everyday. Thank you for this podcast it has given me hope xxx
WOW!! I just love all brain information episodes and being able to visually see the different parts explained takes it to another level of self protection and how important it is to make the best choices possible every day. I’m watching my mother in law of 30 years deteriorate every day from Alzheimer’s and it has me so self aware of just how important this 3lb organ has on our lives. Thank you Mel and Wendy for this crucial important episode you put out there!! I will say I love you both😊
Sure! Changing your mindset involves adopting a growth mindset, practicing positive thinking, gratitude, mindfulness, and self-compassion. These changes can help improve your outlook and overall quality of life.
Mel, you have such a great way for helping people to remember things by getting specific. For example, for the cold shower, after you put the conditioner in your hair, turn the hot water to cold. Brilliant! ❤
Podcast episode that makes me cry. I never said to my parents the phrase, “I love you”. Now I want to say it every day, not only in my parents but to all human beings I love
What an amazing talk! So full of factual knowledge, scientifically informed advice and the heartfelt desire to be of service to others! It's talks like this that inspire people to make the necessary efforts to live their best life! Thank you Mel and to your guest, Doctor Suzuki!
Dr. Suzuki you are such an inspiration! I took one neuroscience freshman seminar as an undergrad student and, 10 years into my career in another area, after watching this, I find myself wondering if there’s a way to get back into the fascinating field of neuroscience. Thank you for reminding us our brains never stop growing and we never stop learning. And, thank you for sharing the beautiful story about your family saying I love you. Mel, you’re always giving us gifts of these amazing conversations and sharing your love with your listeners. The world would be a lot better place with more people like you two!
I'm a bit mobility challenged some days, if I do too much then I thow myself into a fibro flare for days, sometimes weeks 😢 I do recognize the need for movement though, I dance as much as I can, sometimes just seated 😂 It's a fun exercise that we can all do❤
This was so enlightening- has given me a true appreciation on the precious gift we as humans have - and to protect and preserve it to be way is so easy to do.
My 21 year old son is a shaken baby syndrome survivor. Shaken at 3 months by his father while I was at school for the day. Has global brain damage. Thankfully he can walk and has strong will but lacks communication and gets angry a lot and can be very tough to get him to cooperate. He’s very irritable. I’ve got to get him doing some exercise.
Dr Wendy Suzuki od beautiful person with big light inside her :) what a beautiful person :) thank you Mel that you introduced her to us and gave us a chance to get to know her ❤it was so touching and so moving dialogue :) OMG thank you. Mel :) it was inspiring as always ❤❤
I did chair exorcise in care facilities, There are a lot of things that you can do! and vigorously , pretend your boxing with someone! Lift your knees up mother brown, ( thats a song) but marching in your chair. And it makes a difference!
Dr. Suzuki, My daughter had a TBI at 15 months due to abuse. She is 14 now. Since lockdowns her movement has been in significant decline. I am a single parent with no family. Can you help us find resources to support her in being able to move better?
Mel said “And you’re going to want to listen to this entire episode because there is a shocking surprise you won’t want to miss.” I’ve listened twice What was the surprise?????
In regards to the cold showers, wouldn’t that adrenaline rush trigger someone’s anxiety? As a former anxiety sufferer I know that an adrenaline dump was a major cause of my anxiety and panic issues. 39:38
Not an expert, but at the advice of my therapist, I started an end of shower, cold water routine. Our tap water doesn't reach shockingly cold (it's too hot here still), but it is coldish, and I do this to help calm my anxiety/stress and activate my vagus nerve. I find it very helpful.
We with anxiety if we decide to try this we need to start much much slower than others but if we stick to it, it MAY help with resilience and grit and even our anxiety. But very careful.
Thank you so much for this episode. I was an active person who used to go to gym everyday but I met with an accident and was not moving much since last one month and not going out of my room. Doctors told me not to move my leg for next 2 months at least but I feel like not moving much and staying in this room for this long is having a negative impact on me. I am losing my interest in journaling, I am having all the negative thoughts. How can I stop this, I am not sure how I can come out of this and instill this positive plasticity? I am in my PhD and I am not able to concentrate much even when I am trying so hard. I did not have these issues since the day I started being active in my life. Any suggestions from you guys would be much appreciated.
My mom had dementia and told me she loved me every single day we spent together until her last days on earth!I loved her beyond words!beyond words and told her so! Earth. I miss her terribly! 😢
I'm so deeply sorry for your loss. What a blessing that your mom was so loving. May you be comforted in your grief. 🙏❤️
I never told my mom I loved her until she had dementia. Now we say it to each other every day. Too bad we had to wait until her brain deteriorated.
🕊💙Praying💙🕊
I LOVE the fact that she got emotional talking about the I love yous! No matter who you are: 'I love you' matters!
I was in a major accident 12 yrs ago, I started saying I love you to my son, husband and friends all the time now. My 33 yr old son ends every call with I love you!❤

I love how clear your explanations are!
Very interesting. Thank you both😊
You are the best❤❤❤
This was so enlightening- has given me a true appreciation on the precious gift we as humans have - and to protect and preserve it to be way is so easy to do.
I was fortunate to be involved in three autopsies. It was so exciting to hold a brain that did feel heavy.

Dr. Suzuki, My daughter had a TBI at 15 months due to abuse. She is 14 now. Since lockdowns her movement has been in significant decline. I am a single parent with no family. Can you help us find resources to support her in being able to move better?
This is amazing. Funny cuz I told a very cold shower an hour ago
Thank you for this episode ❤
This is awesome!
My mom before weeks before she died always said love you all the time ! Miss my mom 😂
I loved it when mel considered differently abled people❤❤❤
Thank you for this theme. I enjoyed it! :)
And it is really true, when I move my brain just gets new ideas and the foggines is out.
Mel said “And you’re going to want to listen to this entire episode because there is a shocking surprise you won’t want to miss.”
I’ve listened twice
What was the surprise?????
It’s probably a form of “click bait” with positive/great intention because this is such great information that everyone needs to listen to.
This was such an interesting podcast! I wish I had Professors like her in college!
Awesome episode!!!!
Can you please have your mother in law on again? She’s the best inspiration 😊
Great video, I’m ready to trade my brain fog for peak energy-let’s turn those synapses into superhighways.
How about quadriplegics who can’t exercise? How do they stimulate growth in their brain or how can they?
Wonderful 💚
Love your work Mel...love you brain too❤
Love this soo much

I changed the water in my shower!! I enjoy it!!❤
Thankyou ❤🙏🏻💐

“Meaning if you took this macaroni and pulled it into one big noodle…” 😂😂😂
this video’s take really clicks with some of the things I've been reading in the book Magnetic Aura from Borlest
Usually I listen on Spotify, but I had to come check RUclips so I can see the brain😭
İ love her energy so much 🤍
I have Chiari and my hippocampus has been crushed by it. Is there some way this will benefit me.
Spetacular!!🎉🎉🎉❤❤
You have a beautiful fluffy brain!🧠 💗
I am saying this for years to a friend. I walk everyday an hour.. whatever happend in my life !
Does gardening count as exercise for the brain ? I do a ton of bending and lifting planting , weeding etc.
Thank you so much for this episode. I was an active person who used to go to gym everyday but I met with an accident and was not moving much since last one month and not going out of my room. Doctors told me not to move my leg for next 2 months at least but I feel like not moving much and staying in this room for this long is having a negative impact on me. I am losing my interest in journaling, I am having all the negative thoughts. How can I stop this, I am not sure how I can come out of this and instill this positive plasticity? I am in my PhD and I am not able to concentrate much even when I am trying so hard. I did not have these issues since the day I started being active in my life. Any suggestions from you guys would be much appreciated.
Praying for you
Move arms, legs, shoulders, listen to music and move your Head 😅
Clean the house! 🥰🥰
