"The answer to almost any health problem is yoga." Prevention Magazine
Cited as being beneficial for back pain, high blood pressure, weight loss, sleeping better -- besides it supports flexibility, strength and muscle tone. Hard to find all of that in any one other form of exercise. When I go to evening yoga, I sleep better. The deep relaxation and oxygenation I get supports my overall health. When I had a recent yearly physical, my blood pressure was 92 over 60. The nurse asked me what I was doing to be so relaxed, and I knew that doing yoga, along with my spiritual practices, was the answer. For all of us caregiving, I highly recommend yoga to help handle the stress.

This blog is written to provide information and support to persons who are providing care for someone with dementia. A first indicator of dementia is when someone has trouble doing a task once familiar and easy for them. If you have begun to be concerned about someone's memory or cognitive processing, help the person receive a physical exam, to include lab work, and an appointment with a neuropsychologist for an evaluation of memory and cognitive processing.
