(((Cindy Weinstein)))<p>It's Brain Awareness Week. Take care of yours! </p><p>Wear a mask (COVID has implications -- bad ones -- for brain health. Get sleep (sleep rids the brain of gunk -- the vox technica - that accumulates in it). Get hearing aids if you're experiencing age-related hearing loss. Take your SSRI if you're on one (depression isn't good for the brain).
