SUMMARY:Health Hub: Seasonal Changes\, Brain & Body
DESCRIPTION:Members & guests- free! RSVP below to register for this virtual program. \nHealth hub is a program that meets monthly via Zoom to learn about and discuss important or interesting topics about health or wellbeing. \nDo you sleep better when it’s cold out? Or experience emotional shifts like the “winter blues?” These experiences are not coincidental. Researchers have identified physical changes in the brain that occur with seasonal transitions. This month\, we will explore those changes and the symptoms that may accompany them. Our discussion will cover the effects on both the brain and body\, focusing on topics such as sleep\, hydration\, memory\, and more. We will also delve into strategies to manage and embrace these changes as we enter the colder winter months.
