07 | Neuroplasticity: You Are Never Too Old to Learn New Things Part 2
Hello Jesus People Sisters!
In this episode, we continue our discussion on neuroplasticity and why it’s so important. Despite what many people believe, you are never too old to learn new things. Your brain is an amazing creation of God and has the ability to help you transform your life. What if the last third of your life could be your most productive and happy?
Sisters, it’s time to wake up. Do you want to stay stuck in your rut or finish strong? Do you want to do a slow slide into heaven or do you want to meet Jesus knowing you have given your all and fulfilled your calling? You only get one life.
Use it or lose it. Your brain is aging and your cognitive abilities will deteriorate as well. Unless . . . you purposely start pursuing a healthy brain and a healthy lifestyle. Listen to this episode to find out how.
May this episode bless you!
