Balance & Brain Power

Join us for a rejuvenating and relaxing Chair Yoga session specifically designed for seniors. Feel energized with some gentle balance postures and breathing. Learn about how improving your balance and coordination will lead to better cognitive function.

Research supports a strong link between physical activity and brain health across the lifespan. Being physically active can help you feel better, have more energy, sleep better, and improve your strength and balance, thus reducing your risk of falls. Exercise seems to protect the brain by increasing blood flow to the brain, slowing age-related brain shrinkage, strengthening the connections between different parts of the brain, and increasing the production of factors that promote learning and memory, encourage the development of new brain cells, and encourage brain cells to adapt to change. We will enjoy a healthy snack following the yoga and presentation.
