A group of young people with brain injuries have created a film to raise awareness of their condition.
She adds: "After my brain injury I just felt really alone because people don't realise that not everything to do with a brain injury is visible.Nikita is part of the group of young people who have produced a short film portraying what life with a brain injury is like. "With the film It's important for us as a group to show how difficult it can be for us in real life so people can understand."
"Not only does it help them get a better a better understanding of their own injury but it can also show what works best for them to help them live their best lives."Rory has been a mentor with the group for several years

Do mindfulness-based interventions change brain function in people with substance dependence? A systematic review of the fMRI evidence - BMC PsychiatryBackground Substance use disorders (SUDs) affect ~ 35 million people globally and are associated with strong cravings, stress, and brain alterations. Mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) can mitigate the adverse psychosocial outcomes of SUDs, but the underlying neurobiology is unclear. Emerging findings were systematically synthesised from fMRI studies about MBI-associated changes in brain function in SUDs and their associations with mindfulness, drug quantity, and craving. Methods PsycINFO, Medline, CINAHL, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science were searched. Seven studies met inclusion criteria. Results Group by time effects indicated that MBIs in SUDs (6 tobacco and 1 opioid) were associated with changes in the function of brain pathways implicated in mindfulness and addiction (e.g., anterior cingulate cortex and striatum), which correlated with greater mindfulness, lower craving and drug quantity. Conclusions The evidence for fMRI-related changes with MBI in SUD is currently limited. More fMRI studies are required to identify how MBIs mitigate and facilitate recovery from aberrant brain functioning in SUDs.
