Activity 1.1: Finding the Emotion Line

Now that you understand how dementia can limit which “routes” a person’s thoughts can travel, let’s explore what that means in everyday situations.

The cards below show three scenarios that we’ll use to think about what’s really happening inside the brain’s transport network.

Take a moment with each scenario to imagine the feeling that starts the journey and how it might shape the path that follows. After each scenario, you will see three reflection prompts. Write down your thoughts in the workbook (download a copy of the course workbook here)before revealing some possible answers.
