Summary
This conversation between Dean and Ayesha is about the essence of changing habits. How do we empower communities to succeed in preventing diseases and living a healthy and empowered life?
Often, blunt ideas and useless terms, such "motivation" and "moderation" are thrown at individuals. But real, lifelong change is a lifestyle, which requires planning, and an understanding of one's strengths and limitation.
We invite you to check out The NEURO Academy, an incredible community of individuals on a journey together towards better brain health and ultimately, prevention of brain diseases. We offer a thriving platform for evidence-based articles, blogs, weakly live sessions of Q&A and cooking sessions with Ayesha, and on-demand courses that are included within the community. These courses are on brain-health related topics such as:
- Comprehensive NEURO Plan with CME and CE certificates
- Better Brain Nutrition Course, which includes a comprehensive cooking course
- NEURO Coaching with certification
- Anxiety
- ADHD/ADD - and so many more coming in the future.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Brain Health Revolution podcast with your hosts, Aisha and Dean Sharesai. |
| 0:10.3 | Today, we're very excited to be here with you all. |
| 0:13.0 | The subject of the conversation is a revolutionary, empowering approach to preventive medicine. |
| 0:20.8 | And this is something that Dean and I have been very passionate about. |
| 0:24.2 | Our community work is based on this, and we're going to explore this. |
| 0:28.2 | I can't wait to dive in, Deep. |
| 0:29.7 | I know. |
| 0:30.2 | This is extremely important to us because we think that there's a lot of work that have |
| 0:35.2 | been done in fields of lifestyle medicine, preventive medicine, |
| 0:38.5 | and all the other versions of it, you know, functional medicine and integrative medicine |
| 0:43.0 | and complementary medicine and alternative medicine, and the names go on and on and on. |
| 0:49.0 | Some valid, some not so valid, but there's a lot of information that we have now about prevention and prevention |
| 0:55.3 | of diseases. It's no longer a fringe concept. When lifestyle medicine is science and consensus |
| 1:02.3 | driven, it can be incredibly powerful source of information, but it's never enough. And often |
| 1:08.2 | it leaves people disempowered. As change is difficult and all we have done by |
| 1:13.6 | volleying and lobbying information at people, even correct information, we overwhelm them without any |
| 1:19.6 | tools necessary to bring about change in their life. We see this repeatedly. That's why while |
| 1:25.5 | working on the science of lifestyle, we have focused |
| 1:28.4 | even more on how behavior change can be brought into individual lives, and more importantly |
| 1:34.8 | at community level lives, because that's where you make significant public health difference. |
| 1:41.6 | But nobody's focusing on the translation. How do we empower communities? And that's |
