Who said supporting your brain health had to be boring? 👀
Sometimes it looks like trying something you've never done before. Sometimes it looks like getting competitive over pickleball, attempting a complicated recipe, singing karaoke with friends, solving an escape room, or getting your hands covered in clay.
Staying active, keeping your mind engaged, learning new things and spending time with others are all ways to support your overall brain health.
And the best part?
You might actually have fun doing it.
You don't have to do all five. Just pick one and see where it takes you.

One of the things we loved about Grace and Frankie was how it showed that getting older doesn’t mean you stop growing, learning, trying new things, or figuring yourself out.
Grace and Frankie were messy, hilarious, stubborn, curious, adventurous, and constantly evolving. They weren’t defined by their age.
They were just… people.
Because there’s no age limit on learning something new, changing your mind, making mistakes, or discovering what comes next.
Growing older doesn’t mean you stop becoming.
What’s something new you’ve learned recently?

September is World Alzheimer’s Month. 💜
A time to raise awareness, challenge stigma, and remind those living with dementia and their care partners that they are not alone.
Together, we can build a community where people living with dementia are seen, valued, supported, and included.
This month, let’s keep the conversation going.

Growing older comes with change, but it also comes with new experiences, new interests, new connections, and plenty of reasons to keep exploring.
There are a lot of assumptions about what getting older is supposed to look like. But the truth is, there’s no one way to age.
You’re never too old to learn something new, try something different, make a new connection, or discover what’s next.
Let’s rethink the assumptions and make more room for everything that comes with growing older.
Because getting older doesn’t mean growing smaller. It means adding more chapters to your story.

Maybe the reason grandma’s cooking hits different isn’t just what’s on the plate. It’s the stories, the traditions, the familiar smells, and the feeling of being welcomed into her kitchen.
Because sometimes, food is about so much more than food.
It’s connection, comfort, and time spent together.
And no, there aren't any leftovers.
Who makes the best meal in your family? 👀

Sometimes, the easiest way to talk about something difficult is to find a story that helps you talk about it together.
When someone we love is going through changes, children may notice, wonder, and have questions of their own. A book can give them a safe and familiar way to explore those feelings and understand what they’re seeing.
We’ve rounded up some books that can help families open those conversations, including stories about changing memories, growing older, and staying connected through change.

Thinking about volunteering?
Maybe you want to build new skills. Learn more about dementia. Meet new people. Find a sense of purpose. Or simply be part of a community that's making a real impact.
Yes, volunteering is about making a difference, but it's also okay to want something in return.
The beautiful thing about volunteering is that everyone benefits. Your time and talents help support people living with dementia and their families, while you gain experiences, connections, and memories that stay with you long after your volunteer shift ends.
Whether you're looking for a one-time opportunity or a longer-term role, there's a place for you at Alzheimer Calgary.
