Brain Injury Awareness Month Marches On!

March is Brain Injury Awareness Month.

This special month marks an opportunity for the brain injury community and the community at large to share awareness, knowledge, support, education, care and conversation. 

The Brain Energy Support Team (BEST) warmly invites you to join us online for some brain empowerment! 

 

 

 

As individuals and as a community,  as we learn to empower our brains, we are able to move forward towards our goals of brain health, healing, wellness, and so much more.

Empowerment comes in the form of knowledge, support, conversations, education and even having some fun along the way! 

At brainenergysupportteam.org, we offer:

BEST in Second Life

Second Life is a virtual experience where all things are possible. It offers us the chance to engage in things individuals with physical and cognitive challenges might not otherwise have the opportunity to enjoy; live music, long walks on the beach, bike rides, shopping malls, sailing, dancing, and more.

Along with entertainment and socialization opportunities, there are activities such as support groups, workshops on health, presentations from noted institutions such as the Mayo Clinic and Harvard University, opportunities for small business development, learning a new language, even taking classes and finishing a degree.

BEST has created a virtual presence for reaching out to those with brain injury and their caregivers.  BEST hosts a variety of social events, small group discussions, workshops, and skills training. Our trainers also work with nonprofit leaders, businesses, artists, and educators. 

There’s no cost to join us in Second Life. Click here to learn how to get started quickly and safely.
