116 Millions of people literally overnight have started doing what I call “Zoom yoga.” With the pandemic, leading yoga studios like mine are looking at months of closure.

Building on previous research, it’s been found that even short mild exercise sessions, which include yoga and walking, stimulate the brain and deliver short-term cognitive performance improvements. However, the impact that mild aerobic exercise over a longer term has on brain function, in addition to the associated underlying mechanisms,…

Egg rolls minus the fried exterior aren’t that bad. Its mostly cabbage and other veggies stuffed…
