University of Missouri Extension is offering the Boost Your Brain & Memory class via Zoom. The class uses a whole-person approach that helps you form new habits to live a healthier lifestyle, remember things better, be more organized, pay closer attention and regulate your emotions. Each participant will receive a downloadable workbook including memory exercises, tips on nutrition and exercise, and summaries of evidence-based research on brain health. Our aim is to help participants implement new habits to maintain cognitive health while also practicing new skills for better memory. We will focus on healthy habits in six areas: heart health, nutrition, physical activity, social engagement, cognitive engagement and stress management.
The workshop will meet on eight consecutive Fridays, from Feb. 12 through April 2, virtually via Zoom. The workshop has a registration fee of $20 ($40 value) and is open to any and all participants. The program is sponsored in part by Human Development Funds. To register, go to https://extension.missouri.edu/events/boost-your-brain-and-memory-1609828196.
