Keeping Your Brain Fit for Life
Join us for an insightful talk with Alexandra Paz, Ph.D., as we explore the latest research on brain fitness.

Dr. Paz will also share cutting-edge research from Florida Atlantic University’s Stiles-Nicholson Brain Institute, where scientists are using advanced research models to study how exercise promotes the growth of new brain cells.

Please wear comfortable clothing that will allow for gentle movement and brief meditation practice.  No cost – Limited seating

Soothing Stress and Anxiety with Sound Healing
Sound healing utilizes specific sounds and vibrations to induce relaxation, reduce stress, and promote a sense of calm by influencing the body’s natural rhythms and nervous system. It does this by shifting brainwave frequencies from the active beta state to the more relaxed alpha and delta states, which are associated with feelings of peace and deep rest to support emotional and physical well-being. Please wear comfortable clothing for gentle movement and brief meditation practice.

Featuring Josh Rhyne, an accredited sound healer specializing in crystal singing bowls and biofield tuning with Solfeggio frequencies. His sessions are designed to support deep relaxation, energetic balance, and stress relief by working directly with the body’s subtle energy field.  No cost - Limited seating
