Beyond your diagnosis

Keeping your brain healthy and happy

It’s important to keep your brain in good shape. It’s your control centre – the source of everything you think, feel, and do – and it is critical to your overall wellbeing. When you are living with cancer, it can be easy for the idea of brain health to come second to physical health. But both are key. In fact, your brain and body are so tightly interlinked, that actions to benefit one will usually benefit the other.

Whether you’re here for yourself or someone else, it’s important to understand the effects that cancer and treatment can have on the brain and how this can impact day-to-day life. From the cognitive side effects of certain treatments to the emotional challenges of coping with cancer, we’re here to help you take action and find new ways to live positively.
