For centuries we have known that the health of the brain and the body are connected. But now, science can provide insights into how lifestyle choices may help you keep your brain and body healthy as you age.
As part of our Brain Health Age-Friendly Marin Forum series, we have collaborated with the Alzheimer’s Association Northern California Chapter to bring you the latest information on how to make the decisions needed in your life that support brain health.
Join us to learn about research in the areas of
• diet and nutrition
• exercise
• cognitive activity
• social engagement
• sleep and more!
• Use hands-on tools to help you incorporate these recommendations into a plan for healthy aging."
• Bring your questions and your own healthy brain practices to share with the group.
