Abstract

Background: Research into brain mechanisms and their impact on quality of life has gained significant traction, emphasising stress management, cognitive enhancement, and emotional well-being as essential components.

Objective: This study explores the relationship between brain health and overall wellness, focusing on neurobiological mechanisms and evidence-based interventions that enhance stress resilience in neurodivergent populations.

Methods: A comprehensive review of neuroscience and psychological literature was conducted, including neuroimaging and behavioural studies to assess the effectiveness of various interventions.

Results: Findings indicate that targeted strategies - such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), cognitive training, and lifestyle modifications - significantly improve stress resilience, cognitive abilities, and emotional regulation. Key brain regions involved include the amygdala, prefrontal cortex, and hippocampus.

Conclusions: Implementing evidence-based interventions fosters improved quality of life through enhanced brain wellness. Future research should focus on scalable approaches that are inclusive of diverse populations.

期刊介绍： Cognitive Neuropsychiatry (CNP) publishes high quality empirical and theoretical papers in the multi-disciplinary field of cognitive neuropsychiatry. Specifically the journal promotes the study of cognitive processes underlying psychological and behavioural abnormalities, including psychotic symptoms, with and without organic brain disease. Since 1996, CNP has published original papers, short reports, case studies and theoretical and empirical reviews in fields of clinical and cognitive neuropsychiatry, which have a bearing on the understanding of normal cognitive processes. Relevant research from cognitive neuroscience, cognitive neuropsychology and clinical populations will also be considered. There are no page charges and we are able to offer free color printing where color is necessary.
