Senior Living Community Center houses Brain Fitness Center

There's an old saying: use it or lose it. The Conservatory Senior Living Community Center in Keller, Texas apparently takes that saying to heart by not only equipping the center with a physical fitness center, complete with weights, exercise bikes, and treadmills, but also with a brain fitness center.

Designed for the purpose of maintaining a sharp mind, the center is outfitted with computers and headphones that allow residents to complete exercises that hone and sharpen their memory and concentration skills.

According to Dr. Sandra Chapman, director of the Center for Brain Health at the University of Texas at Dallas, "the brain can rewire itself and become stronger" and "mental stimulation can improve the brain's functioning at any age".

This, of course, is not new news to individuals who have always held the belief that "if you don't want to lose it, you should definitely use it".
