About the Program

What can we do today to support our brain health for the years ahead? In this engaging one-hour virtual session, speakers from the Alzheimer’s Association will explore the latest research on brain health, healthy aging, and the lifestyle factors that may help protect cognitive function over time.

Drawing on findings from the landmark U.S. POINTER study and other emerging research, participants will learn how physical activity, nutrition, cognitive and social engagement, and cardiovascular health can work together to support a healthier brain. The session will translate the science into practical, achievable strategies participants can begin incorporating into everyday life.

This virtual program serves as an introduction to the Thrive Brain Health Retreat and provides participants with an evidence-informed foundation for thinking about brain health, aging, and the small choices that can add up over time. This retreat is offered in collaboration with the Alzheimer’s Association Brain Health Advancement Institute, bringing together current brain health research and an immersive retreat experience designed to help participants put that science into practice.

What will participants get out of this program?

Participants will leave feeling informed, inspired, and empowered to take meaningful steps toward better brain health. This engaging session will break down the latest research into simple, practical actions participants can use in everyday life—helping them better understand how movement, nutrition, cardiovascular health, cognitive challenge, and social connection can support the brain over time. The goal is for participants to walk away with both the knowledge and motivation to make brain-healthy choices that feel realistic, achievable, and worthwhile.

This program is part of the Drala Mountain Online Practice Series, a collection of tuition-free online offerings. The series takes place on select Tuesdays from 6:00 – 7:30 pm Mountain Time.
