Online Wellness Event: Science-Based Approaches for Brain Optimization

Join Drs. Dean and Ayesha Sherzai, a.k.a. "The Brain Docs" from the Alzheimer’s Prevention Program at Linda Loma University.

They'll share what they've learned as neurologists at the forefront of Alzheimer's prevention research. Learn how to improve your performance, stay sharp, and yes, even avoid cognitive decline, with plenty of opportunities to ask your questions!

The ideal time to start using these techniques is decades before symptoms would ever develop (I'm looking at you, 30, 40 and 50-somethings). The other best time to follow their lead? From your 60s on up, when tending to brain health becomes most critical and rewarding. In sum, this is for everyone.

Online Wellness Event: How to Get the Most Out of Your Oura Ring

Do you have the Oura ring? Are you wondering how it can help you improve your health, beyond tracking your sleep and steps (which, admittedly, we find very useful on their own.)

We gifted our families and the Pennington team the Oura smart ring for fitness, stress, sleep and wellness tracking. It gathers biometric data in support of building a healthy lifestyle – things like daily steps, fitness and recovery, sleep quality, heart rate variability (an indicator of stress), oxygen saturation and more.

Join us online to learn how to use hidden, and not-so-hidden, features of the Oura ring. Learn tips and tricks to improve your performance, sleep, energy and readiness.

Jose led the major league’s home run record for many of his 15+ years as a pro athlete. He also served on the board for baseball equipment manufacturer Marucci, and helped lead them to a successful $200 million exit to a publicly traded company. So, when Jose gives advice, we listen.
