A 45-minute or one-hour walk may be enough. On the other hand, it has been shown that the neurons of people who maintain more social interactions produce more connections, their cognitive processes work better, which is why it is an important aspect to enhance.<\/p>\n<p>Everyday activities such as dressing or eating are times of the day when these cognitive processes are put into practice. If, as is common, a family member does these tasks instead of the elderly person, it prevents these cognitive processes from being put into operation, making those small moments of the day essential in any cognitive stimulation program. When the patient does not want to do other types of tasks, it is important that they take on greater relevance. For example, we have a case in the consultation in which we design a day to day meeting all these characteristics; in the morning we go for a one-hour walk with our caregiver, a walk that we then repeat in the afternoon and sign up for classes. painting in the Town Hall.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"vc_separator wpb_content_element vc_separator_align_center vc_sep_width_100 vc_sep_border_width_3 vc_sep_pos_align_center vc_separator_no_text vc_sep_color_grey vc_custom_1580462623448 wpb_content_element  vc_custom_1580462623448 wpb_content_element\"><span class=\"vc_sep_holder vc_sep_holder_l\"><span class=\"vc_sep_line\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"vc_sep_holder vc_sep_holder_r\"><span class=\"vc_sep_line\"><\/span><\/span>\n<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"wpb_video_widget wpb_content_element vc_clearfix   vc_video-aspect-ratio-169 vc_video-el-width-100 vc_video-align-left\">\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"wpb_heading wpb_video_heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Neuropsicologia_del_envejecimiento\"><\/span>Neuropsychology of aging<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wpb_video_wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Neuropsychology of aging | DOCUMENTARY FILM\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/TQUprMpEL-o?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"vc_separator wpb_content_element vc_separator_align_center vc_sep_width_100 vc_sep_border_width_3 vc_sep_pos_align_center vc_separator_no_text vc_sep_color_grey vc_custom_1580462623448 wpb_content_element  vc_custom_1580462623448 wpb_content_element\"><span class=\"vc_sep_holder vc_sep_holder_l\"><span class=\"vc_sep_line\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"vc_sep_holder vc_sep_holder_r\"><span class=\"vc_sep_line\"><\/span><\/span>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element  justifytext\">\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<p>This last routine, in addition to how stimulating it can be for memory, is an activity that is done in a group, which allows you to meet other people who are often from the same neighborhood, which led to them meeting in the afternoons every day to have a snack. .<\/p>\n<p>In this way, and in a very simple way, we have increased this patient&#039;s social relationships, and we also tried to make his daily routine more active instead of spending most of his time watching TV as is usually the case.
