A Better Aging Brain Through Un-Focused Time
There’s a part of your brain, referred to as the Default Mode Network, that while at rest helps you retrieve memories, link to better creative thinking and can help you feel more connected. The good news is that the best way to tap into this part of your brain is to rest, relax and effectively “do nothing”.
Staying Active in the Winter
Being active in the winter is a great way to “get through it”.
Yoga for Health: Elderly
After time, activity takes its toll on the body. No one knows this better than an older adult who struggles to remain fit, but who also doesn’t want to further their decline with more pain or injury. Yoga, as a method of intentional movement, stretching and breath is a great way to gently include exercise into your day.
Happy Feet
Our feet are the underdog of our physical history; they have carried us for years. We tend to forget how much they have worked for us and as we age, we need to give them a bit more love and appreciation.
