Brains are dumb. I prefer to think with my gut. Oh, and sometimes my heart.

Subject: [Ravensfort] Health in the SCA / Ya Need Your Head
I came across an interesting web site in my aimless wandering through the internet maze.
http://www.fi.edu/learn/brain/head.html
With the type fighting we do on a weekly and daily bases I thought it might be helpful to bring it to the attention of my SCA family. It is something serious to keep in mind when playing our game. The subtitles that jumped out at me were:
Mild Traumatic Brain Injury and Personality Changes
Head Injuries in Sports
Football Players - Multiple Concussions - Study
Head Injury Links to Violence
Neural Circuit Damage and Violent or Aggressive Behavior
Most Vulnerable Area of the Head - Prefontal Cortex
Anyway, there it is. I hope this helps us all to play safer and identify problems early. If anyone has more information on the multiple concussions topic I, for one, would love to see it.
In service to The Barony and the SCA,
Pax,
