#braininjury

When you have #memoryimpairment you never really know WHEN you are. You can get clues fro reality, but it's a CONSTANT fight not to call someone back from a discussion in 2015, day dream about revenge on a school bully, or relive a time when my body was much more capable. I try to hack it, but it's so subjective. The only thing I have found that works reliably is #meditation. Without the need to recognize, match, recall, remember, imagine, regret, etc.. the mind is pretty peaceful. 🧠 #braininjury

This randomized controlled trial examines whether music-based group exercise offers advantages over standard individual exercise in patients with acquired brain injury. Using a four-week intervention, the authors compare cognitive performance, mood, and activities of daily living between both approaches. While music-based group training was not superior in clinical outcomes, the study provides careful evidence that both formats support cognitive and functional improvement, with clear differences in enjoyment, concentration, and individual preference.
