Physical activity supports emotional and mental health in addition to physical health. Physical activity can help reduce feelings of depression and anxiety, improve sleep, and benefit overall emotional well-being. It may also improve or maintain some aspects of cognitive function, such as your ability to shift quickly between tasks, plan an activity, and ignore irrelevant information.

Research links hearing loss with an increased risk of dementia. But keeping your brain stimulated and active can help.

There are studies that suggest hearing loss has an impact on brain function. It may result in a change in your brain structure, which directly increases your risk for cognitive impairment and dementia. But another possibility is that hearing loss can demand so much additional attention and effort to decode meaning in words and sounds that it takes up remaining brain capacity needed to process the actual meaning of messages.

More studies are needed to determine the direct cause hearing loss has on brain function and whether that decline is reversible, but hearing loss itself should be paid close attention to.

Some people ignore signs of hearing loss or chalk them up to aging and just live with it. But hearing loss can affect your life in many ways. If you suspect you’re at risk, talk to your doctor and ask for an audiology evaluation to determine how severe your hearing loss is.

There’s a fine line between excitement and anxiety, and this is a reminder that even good stress — things like weddings and babies and puppies and publishing a book — is still stress, and it’s important to take care of yourself. 🧡

Yoga 4 Caregivers Kula

Dear Ones,

Welcome to our Yoga Kula dedicated to Caregivers. A “Kula” is a Sanskrit term pronounced (Koo-Lah) that simply means “community of the heart," a group coming together with the intention of creating community.

Let me be the first to thank you for being here and for your selfless act of love and kindness. Take a moment and give yourself some recognition for taking this time to take care of you.

My name is Jennifer Henius and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, a Registered Yoga Teacher (200hr Hatha), the wife of a Marine, a Caregiver Advocate and a national leader in Caregiver health policy. I spent many years as a clinician and a healthcare administrator providing services and supports to Veterans and their families. I had the privilege of spending the last decade working with an incredible team to implement the largest and most comprehensive Caregiver Support Program in the United States at the Department of Veteran Affairs. This pioneering program provided unprecedented benefits and services to Caregivers of our nation’s most vulnerable Veterans. These Caregivers fight the battle on the home-front and their sacrifice and steadfast commitment to care for our nation's heroes is both humbling and inspiring.
