About this event

Description

This activity is closed to further registration.

What is good for your heart is good for your brain: A brain wellness book club based on “Outlive” by Peter Attia, MD. Join Michelle Voss and guests from her UI Health, Brain, and Cognition lab for a book club series that will be an interactive guide through Peter Attia’s book “Outlive”, with a focus on brain wellness. This six-week class will cover how heart and metabolic health affect your personal risk for cognitive decline and Alzheimer’s, and how and why physical activity and sleep hygiene are essential to brain wellness. We will have assigned readings each week, followed by discussion and interactive activities during class. Each class ends with reflection on your lifestyle and developing personal tactics for your lifestyle to build brain wellness.

Fee:$10 to cover part of the cost of the book, waived for low income members.
