Modern Medicine Podcast: Unlock Your Peak Performance with Mindlift

Peak performance isn’t just for athletes or executives — it’s for everyone who has a brain and wants to use it better. Discover Mindlift, a groundbreaking modern medicine podcast where science meets real-life transformation. In their debut episode, join Dr. Umair and Dr. Mouzayan from the Brain & Performance Centre as they share insights from their combined 30+ years of experience to help you achieve optimal brain and body wellness. 

Why Mindlift Matters: More Than Typical Health Care

The podcast’s mission is simple: to improve your life with better brain and body performance.

As Dr. Mouyazan explains, “When you lift your mind, you can elevate everything else with you.” 

What sets Mindlift apart is that it’s practical and science-based. Mindlift looks beyond traditional health care to show you how to prevent illness and achieve peak health no matter your age. 

• The 66-Day habit rule: Dr. Umair shares research showing that forming sustainable habits takes about 66 days, not just a few weeks. “Inspiration will only take you so far. You need to get to the point where it becomes a habit.”

• Aging begins earlier than you think. Cognitive decline can begin as early as our 30s, long before most people take action. As Dr. Umair points out, “At what point will you find the time? Will it be too late?”

• Tailored medicine works best: Generic health care sometimes doesn’t work because it doesn’t account for individual lifestyles. Dr. Mouzayan emphasises, “If a patient tells me they travel a lot, I’m not going to recite the recommendations that are online—my role is to tailor the information.” 

Mindlift demonstrates that age doesn’t have to limit performance when you take the right approach — and then it guides listeners in exactly how to achieve their best. 

Who Should Listen to Mindlift? 

The hosts share experiences and explain complex medical concepts in ways everyone can understand. The podcast is perfect for: 

• People who want the newest wellness tips
• Busy professionals who want to perform better
• Anyone worried about keeping their brain healthy
• People ready to change how they think about health and wellness
• Those who want to prevent illness and live longer

Mindlift Offers Insights for Better Brain Health

One of the most compelling topics of this modern medicine podcast is how to assess and improve brain health — something often ignored until it’s too late. 

• Brain Imaging: Annual health check-ups should include the brain; MRIs examine brain anatomy while SPECT scans can measure blood flow to different brain areas. 

• Cognitive Testing: Check-ups should test brain function. “We can assess our memory and all its types, our attention, information processing speed, and motor skills,” explains Dr. Mouzayan.

• Challenging Your Comfort Zone: Learn new skills like music, languages, or unfamiliar hobbies. “Going to work every day and doing the exact same activities is not challenging enough for the brain,” Dr. Mousayan reveals. 

• Prioritise Brain Health: Now in her 40s, Dr. Mouyazan shares her personal transformation, “I feel 10 times better than what I was 20 years ago.” The secret is making health a non-negotiable priority in her schedule. 

The doctors state that making small but powerful changes to busy lifestyles is key.

In each episode, Mindlift listeners discover deeper ways to convert scientific insights into daily habits in order to build sustainable routines for long-term health.

A New Paradigm in Modern Medicine

Being healthy means more than just not being sick. Dr. Umair calls this concept a “jigsaw puzzle”. Each episode of Mindlift explores different pieces of this puzzle in depth. 

Brain Health Mastery

Dr. Umair explains why memory is only one part of brain health. One’s memory may be a strong point when other aspects, like focus and attention, can be impaired. 

Mindlift Insight: 

• Using new brain science to improve how your mind works 
• Ways to understand and use the latest brain training techniques
• Learning practical ways to improve memory, focus, and mental clarity

Body Performance Optimisation

Dr. Mouyazan shares that even if you’re a bit older, you can still aim to perform just as well in the gym as younger people. 

The Mindlift Insight: 

• Improving health with proven strategies
• Combining the latest exercise, nutrition, and medical knowledge
• Boosting energy and live longer

Emotional and Social Wellness

The hosts emphasise that social connections are vital and a major part of helping to prevent cognitive decline or dementia. 

The Mindlift Insight:

• Building resilience and emotional intelligence 
• Strengthening social ties for better brain health 
• Understanding the science of relationships that support overall well-being 

Modern Medicine Insights

Dr. Mouzayan offers a striking fact — Alzheimer’s disease can begin in the brain 25 years before you experience any symptoms. 

The Mindlift Insight:

• Explore the technologies that are modernising medicine 
• Understand tools like brain imaging and cognitive tests 
• Incorporate medical advice that fits your specific lifestyle for better results
