Learn about healthy living
For centuries, people have known that the health of the brain and the body are connected. But now, science is able to provide insights into how to make lifestyle choices that may help keep your brain and body healthy as you age.
At a Feb. 25 presentation at the YMCA of San Benito County, learn about research in the areas of diet and nutrition, exercise, cognitive activity and social engagement. Use hands-on tools to help incorporate these recommendations into a plan for healthy aging.
The presentation, titled “Healthy Living for Your Brain and Body,” will take place 11:15am-12:15pm Feb. 25. The YMCA is located at 351 Tres Pinos Road in Hollister.
