Research-backed insights on how yoga and mindfulness practices may help prevent cognitive decline.
Emerging research suggests that yoga and meditation practices may play a role in preventing or slowing cognitive decline associated with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. The combination of physical movement, breathwork, meditation, and social engagement found in yoga classes addresses multiple risk factors for cognitive decline. Studies have shown improvements in memory, attention, and brain connectivity in older adults who practice yoga regularly. At GrassROOTS, we incorporate cognitive-supporting elements into our classes.
