🌳 It’s Love Parks Week — a great reminder that your local green space is more than just a nice view.

Spending time in nature has been shown to reduce stress, boost mood, and even improve memory and focus.

Add in a bit of movement — a walk, a chat on a park bench, or even a game of rounders — and you’ve got a triple win for brain health: exercise, connection, and calm.

Your brain loves fresh air and community. So this week, get out and show your local park some love — it might just love you back.

Your brain is about 75% water — so it’s no surprise that even mild dehydration can cause foggy thinking, poor concentration, and low mood. 😓

In summer, staying hydrated is more important than ever.

Here’s how to keep your brain firing on all cylinders:

💧 Aim for 6–8 glasses of water a day (more if you’re active or it’s hot).

🍉 Add water-rich foods like cucumber, watermelon, and lettuce to your meals.

🌿 Try herbal infusions with brain-boosting ingredients like mint, rosemary or lemon balm.

🥤 Avoid too much caffeine and sugary drinks — they can dehydrate you further.

🧠 Bonus tip: Keep a water bottle nearby as a visual reminder — out of sight = out of mind!

A well-hydrated brain is a sharper, happier one.

Struggling to concentrate? Losing your train of thought mid-sentence? You’re not alone.

Brain fog is one of the most common — and frustrating — symptoms of menopause. But it’s not something you have to just “put up with.”

At CogMission, we help women understand what’s really going on in their brains during hormonal shifts — and, more importantly, what they can do about it.

✨ Small, evidence-backed changes can make a big difference.

It’s the 10th anniversary of Great British Pea Week — a fine time to give this humble little legume the spotlight it deserves.

Peas are packed with fibre, protein, and folate (a brain-boosting B-vitamin) — making them a simple, everyday way to support mood, memory, and mental energy.

But brain health isn’t just about peas. A balanced, whole-food diet — rich in vegetables, healthy fats, and clean proteins — is one of the most powerful tools we have to protect our brains as we age.

So here’s to 10 years of celebrating the pea — and to small steps that support big change.

Summer isn’t just a time to relax — it’s the perfect opportunity to refresh your brain health habits too. ☀️

Whether you’re on holiday or just enjoying longer days, small seasonal shifts can make a big difference.

Here are 5 simple summer tips to support your brain:

🌿 Eat seasonally – Fresh berries, leafy greens, and oily fish are packed with nutrients your brain loves.

💧 Hydrate wisely – Dehydration can affect memory and mood. Aim for water over fizzy or sugary drinks.

😴 Protect your sleep – Light evenings can interfere with rest. Try winding down earlier or using blackout blinds.

🚶‍♀️ Move outside – Walking in nature supports both mental and cognitive wellbeing.

📵 Unplug a little – Take breaks from screens to give your brain time to reset.

🧠 Brain health doesn’t take a summer break — but it can benefit from one.

What’s your go-to brain boost this season?

🧠 Father’s Day Reminder: Look After What’s Upstairs

You check the oil. You get the boiler serviced. You keep your tools sharp.

But what about your brain?

Cognitive decline starts earlier than most people think (as early as your 40s), but there’s a lot you can do to stay sharp, focused, and independent.

At CogMission, we help you take simple, evidence-based steps to look after what really matters.

Because the best gift you can give your family, and yourself, is staying fully YOU for as long as possible.

The Bredesen Protocol is a science-based approach that looks at the root causes of cognitive decline. In many cases, it can help stabilise or even improve symptoms.

At CogMission, we use the Bredesen Protocol to support individuals with dementia and their families. It’s not a one-size-fits-all solution. It’s personalised, holistic, and grounded in the latest research.

If you or someone you care for is facing cognitive decline, know that support is available and it’s never too late to explore what’s possible.
