Dr. Roger Jahnke. OMD our friend, teacher and mentor has posted this important report on the science of breathing... Learn more about how the simple act of breathing effects our brain wellness.

How Does Breathing Affect Your Brain?

Did you know that the way you breathe can directly influence your focus, emotional balance, memory, and mental performance?

Explore a science-backed breath practice program designed to support clarity, calm, and brain health.

In the Breath Medicine program, you'll learn simple, deeply effective breathing practices that are easy to remember and integrate into daily life: https://9mm4bsz2.pages.infusionsoft.net/

According to Greg Miller's article "How Does Breathing Affect Your Brain?" from Smithsonian Magazine, our emotions, cognition, memory, and learning all shift under the influence of breathing:

"Recent studies have suggested that breathing can influence people's performance on a surprisingly wide range of lab tests. Where someone is in the cycle of inhalation and exhalation can influence abilities as diverse as detecting a faint touch and distinguishing three-dimensional objects.

One study found that people tend to inhale just before a cognitive task — and that doing so tends to improve performance. Several have found that it is only breathing through the nose that has these effects; breathing through the mouth does not."

The article also notes:

"Not only does the respiration rhythm synchronize activity in brain regions involved in emotion and memory, it can also affect people's performance on tasks involving emotion and memory."

Breathwork is not only the foundation of many traditional and alternative systems of medicine — it is also a practical, accessible way to manage daily stress and support chronic challenges such as anxiety, depression, insomnia, and brain fog.

If you are interested in learning more about breath practice, you can access our program called "Breath Medicine: Activate the Most Profound Medicine."

In this program, you'll learn four amazingly simple – yet immensely powerful – breath practices that you will find easy to remember and practice. Click here to learn more: https://9mm4bsz2.pages.infusionsoft.net/

Falls have become a major health problem for older adults worldwide, ranking first in incidence and mortality among accidental injuries in older adults.
Falls not only result in the physical trauma such as soft tissue injury and fractures, but also in psychological problems such as fear of falling, anxiety, depression, and social isolation
As a traditional Chinese medicine health exercise, Tai Chi has the effectiveness of strengthening the body. The whole set of movements is coherent, uniform, round and natural, covering important parts such as the shoulders, elbows, hips, knees, thighs, ankles, etc. While practicing Tai Chi, the load generated by muscle movement stimulates bone cell activity and repairs bone structure, which helps to improve bone density, joint muscle strength and neuromuscular response. Older adults' postural stability and movement coordination improve, as do joint and ligament flexibility, helping to maintain balance and prevent falls.

New Year .. Time to make a decision to take back control of our health & wellness. Join us at the Saint Pete Beach Recreation Center Monday & Thursdays 11:15am - 12:15pm. We welcome all those that have a fear of starting a new and unknown class. You will be welcomed by instructors with 15 years experience specializing in helping other aging adults to gently regain and restore confidence for freedom to live life fully again.
