Prioritize Brain Health
You likely understand the importance of maintaining your body's health. If sick, you visit a doctor, take medicine or undergo physical therapy. Just as physical health needs are unique to each person, so are your mental health needs. Your brain is one of the most important parts of your body, and some people experience short- or long-term brain health challenges. Brain health affects your overall wellbeing, including physical health. To change how Iowans understand and support mental health, we're redefining mental health as brain health.
Help is available, and providers in your area can help you manage and improve your brain health.
