🧠 Brain Social Connections
Strengthen interpersonal skills and meaningful relationships with oneself, with others and with nature.
🧠 Brain Movement

🧠 Brain Arts Expression:
Integrate the healing, creative and expressive power of the arts in everyday life.
🧠 Brain Creativity
Use creative strategies to improve mental stimulation, problem solving and creative innovation which affects purpose and creative contributions.
Come learn with us!
All of these pillars are taught through the art, work, and life of famous artists you know and love. This is the era of brain health and brain capital. Let’s build these skills in a fun interactive way for the entire family and community!
Why is the Lyrics ’N Leadership Institute For Brain Health the best platform for developing brain health and leadership skills for the whole community?
Music, the arts (and famous artists and icons!) make the learning experience enjoyable, relatable, memorable and implementable
Learning with the music of an artist or the icon you love activates certain areas of the brain for nostalgia and joy rather than being taught in lecture format
Connecting with others who enjoy the artist or icon, while learning new brain health skills, creates social connections, increased collaboration and a more memorable experience to implement new brain health behaviors
Increasing your creative thinking on a regular basis allows you to maintain a ‘life long learner’ mindset and take control of your brain health journey
Prevent dementia while building a strong brain for you and your family that will flourish with creativity and connection
Success Stories
I appreciated how the facilitators wove in both brain science and the arts–the workshop was inclusive and accessible for all types of thinkers. I think it’s a big part of what made it a safe space to be vulnerable with one another–even though ours was a group of women who were mostly unknown to one another prior to the learning experience.

I really enjoyed the development workshop and how Genein guided us to really explore what we envision for our year ahead. The metaphor of Prince’s Diamonds and Pearls really stuck with me. I really enjoyed the way she intertwined music into the lesson, with an emphasis on how words can be so impactful.
