Schedule

31 King St, Warners Bay NSW 2282, Australia | Warners Bay, NS
This series is designed for individuals and families interested in improving cognitive function, optimizing brain health and taking informed proactive steps.
Drawing on current neuroscience and clinical experience, Dr. Dov Pine explains how brain networks change with age, why some changes are reversible or modifiable, and evidence-based strategies for cultivating brain-body adaptability and resilience. Each session will conclude with a Q&A discussion.
Dr. Dov Pine is a clinician and director of the Cognitive Rehabilitation Program, an integrative neurorehabilitation service focused on cognitive decline, dementia, and caregiver support.
The Ageing Brain – What’s Normal and What’s Not
As we age, changes in memory, attention, and thinking are common — but not all cognitive change is “just aeging.” This talk explains how the brain normally changes over time, what should not be considered normal, and why many early warning signs are often missed or dismissed. Attendees will gain a clearer understanding of healthy brain ageing, early red flags, and why early, informed action matters when supporting and rehabilitating cognitive function.
Understanding Cognitive Decline and Dementia, Risk Factors and Opportunities for Change
Cognitive decline and dementia do not begin suddenly — they develop over years through a combination of health, lifestyle, and neurological factors. This talk outlines key predictors and risk factors, including cardiovascular health, blood sugar regulation, sleep, stress, nutrition, and other modifiable influences. The focus is on where meaningful opportunities for change still exist and how supporting brain network function can influence cognitive trajectory over time.
Home Strategies for Improving Cognitive Function and Reducing Dementia Risk
Small, consistent actions at home can make a meaningful difference for individuals experiencing cognitive decline or living with dementia. This third talk in the series focuses on simple, evidence-informed strategies to optimize cognitive performance, support brain resilience, reduce stress, and improve day-to-day functioning. The emphasis is on practical interventions that integrate into everyday life, strengthen confidence and connections, and help people remain actively engaged for as long as possible.
