Your Brain in Forte – The Neusletter

Welcome to Your Brain in Forte

Mental health challenges among teenagers are rising faster than ever, yet many of us still don’t fully understand what’s happening inside our own brains. Your Brain in Forte was created to change that. Here, we dive into the fascinating world of youth neuroscience, breaking down how mental health struggles—like anxiety, depression, and stress—are connected to real, measurable changes in the brain. Our goal is to make the science accessible, empowering you with the knowledge to better understand yourself and the tools to build a healthier mind.

Each edition will explore a different aspect of our brain and mental health, from why habits are so hard to change to how mindfulness can physically reshape your brain. We’ll combine scientific research with practical advice you can use in your daily life. Whether you’re here out of curiosity, personal experience, or a desire to help others, we’re excited to have you on this journey toward stronger, healthier minds—because your brain deserves to be your greatest forte.
