The world's leading research agrees: healthy brain ageing is supported by multiple lifestyle factors working together. Valia Live's approach is informed by that evidence.
Led by Professor Miia Kivipelto, the FINGER Study was among the first large clinical trials to demonstrate that a multidomain lifestyle intervention - combining diet, exercise, cognitive training, and vascular risk monitoring - can support cognitive function and brain health in older adults at risk of decline.

WHO guidelines recommend regular physical activity, cognitive stimulation, social engagement, and healthy lifestyle habits to support healthy ageing and reduce risk factors associated with cognitive decline.

The Sixth Lancet Commission report identifies a range of factors across the lifespan that may influence brain health - reinforcing that consistent, multidomain habits matter at every age.

Research shows the greatest benefits come when these four pillars are practiced consistently and together - the same principles built into every Valia Live session.
Keep the mind active, curious, and engaged.
Meaningful connection nourishes mind and emotion.
Movement supports brain health and overall wellbeing.
Daily habits that protect the brain long-term.
