  • 23. Decision Making & Planning Following Brain Injury
    Sep 11 2024

    Join Jules and Mark in this latest episode as they talk about the challenges they've faced with making decisions and planning, following Mark's brain injury.

    By taking some time to stop and gather the facts, this could be key to making the right decision instead of trying to act on the spot.

    Using diaries, calenders and planning tools are also useful to relieve stress and anxiety in those moments of choice.

  • 22. Brain or Shine One Year On
    Aug 28 2024

    It's been a year since Brain or Shine first posted on their social media platform so, that sounds like an anniversary.

    Join the founders, Jules and Mark, who reflect on the first 12 months and look ahead to plans for the next year.

    Brain or Shine has published over 20 podcast episodes and blog entries and sent out numerous weekly newsletters, connecting with thousands of people affected by brain injury. Hundreds more also benefit from the peer-to-peer support group on Facebook.

    A major highlight was seeing the book, What The Hell Just Happened? performed as a play by students from the University of Northampton.

  • 21. Information Processing Following Brain Injury
    Aug 16 2024

    In this latest episode, Jules and Mark take a look at how the brain processes information and how a brain injury could affect this.

    Many advertisements for technology tend to focus on the speed of processing information. For example, a new mobile phone, laptop, tablet or even superfast broadband.

    Our brains are faster than any computer on the planet but, like technology, glitches can slow down the processing of information.
