There is no currently no cure for Alzheimer’s but recent research suggests that yoga and meditation may play a role in prevention and improving symptoms of the progressive disease, which is the most common form of dementia and the sixth leading cause of death in the United States. In 2014, in the first study to suggest that memory loss may be reversed, yoga and meditation were included as part of a complex, 36-point therapeutic program. Another study found that yoga and meditation may help Alzheimer’s and dementia patients and their caregivers socialize and feel better.
In the linked article below, the potential benefits of yoga for Alzheimer's is explored, through the lens of a specialist yoga program for Alzheimer's in Copper Ridge, USA. We hope you enjoy reading it as much as we did!
