Meditation and the Brain @ Central

Meditation and the Brain @ Central

Scientists are learning more and more about how meditation improves brain health and well-being.  Studies show that regular meditation can improve brain waves, prevent illnesses, and reduce stress.  Psychological advantages include reduced anxiety, irritability, and depression, and increased memory and learning capabilities, improved mood, and greater emotional stability.    

Join Dr. Alan Post, Chiropractic Physician and longtime meditator, who speaks regularly on this topic. Dr. Post will share a simple and effective meditation technique which has lasting benefits. Participants will practice meditating and have a chance to ask questions.
