The Stimulated Mind

'As global health declines, Dr Wood’s voice urgently needs amplifying' – DR RANGAN CHATTERJEE, bestselling authorTake control of your brain health with science-backed strategies to help you prevent cognitive decline and Alzheimer’s disease – whichever stage of life you’re in. The most important part of the body – especially as we age – is our brain. So why aren’t we taking brain health as seriously as our hearts and achy joints, particularly when dementia and Alzheimer’s are the UK’s leading cause of death? In The Stimulated Mind, cutting-edge neuroscientist and performance coach Dr Tommy Wood dispels the myth that the brain is doomed to decline with age, showing us that with the right support structures, our brains can continue to adapt and improve. We take care of our hearts and joints as we age – but what about our brains? With people struggling to focus, and dementia and Alzheimer’s on the rise, Dr Wood offers a bold, empowering message: our brains are not destined to decline. In fact, with the right stimulus, they can adapt, strengthen and even improve over time. In THE STIMULATED MIND, Dr Wood introduces his science-backed '3-S Model' – Stimulation, Sleep and Nutrient Supply – as the foundation for lifelong brain health. Forget expensive supplements or rigid 'biohacks'. Instead, Dr Wood focuses on the everyday factors that truly matter: how we eat, move, sleep, connect with others, and handle stress. Blending cutting-edge neuroscience with his work coaching elite athletes and professionals, Dr Wood offers a deeply practical, optimistic roadmap for cognitive longevity – helping us not just protect our brains from decline, but expand our mental capacity as we age.
