“Yoga involves dual tasking, doing cognitive and physical activity together, such as synchronized mindful breathing with movement, which we know enhances balance and cognitive function and creativity and cognitive flexibility.”

“study linking physical activity with a 25% reduction in depression when people exercised for 2.5 hours per week.”

“Meditation is not a "one size fits all." In 1:1 coaching, I've found myself adjusting for clients with diagnosed ADHD/OCD and those working through trauma”

Julie Carmen Actor, Licensed Marriage Family Therapist, Certified Yoga Therapist, JulieCarmenActor.com
“I think people should be aware of the category of yoga teaching called certified yoga therapists because our students are trained in all the contraindications”

Rashmi Schramm, MD Board Certified Family Physician, Integrative Wellness Coach, Chopra Certified PSM Meditation Teacher
Dr Schramm is a great find because she is combining medicine and what we all know works well from meditation and mindfulness. Meditation and mindfulness could become more mainstream when doctors actually embrace these practices.

Ryan W. Winters, Professional tennis coach at The Club at Kukui’ula on Kauai who successfully uses brain body connection prompts.

“In a match, I shouldn't be considering how to stroke the ball. It's already too late. I've developed what I've developed. I'm here, I'm now, and I should be considering physical chess and strategy instead.

“In sports, we have something called the 16 second cure.”

Lauren Duffell, a sleep science coach and registered holistic nutritionist expanded on other speakers tips. She reminded us that meditation helps us with sleep quality. We loved Lauren's moving meditation suggestion.

This episode’s discussion features innovations from this year’s 2024 Consumer Electronics Show (CES), including holographic beaming anywhere in the world, a medical records organization platform that improves health outcomes, and an easier way for older loved ones to tell their stories.

This show was recorded on March 7, 2024, and included the following guests in the order they presented:

David Nussbaum, CEO at Proto Hologram, an innovation that's allowing us to beam in “live” to meetings, in holographic form. “Proto delivers a truly lifelike holographic experience so viewers see, hear, and interact with others anywhere in the world.” The possibilities are pretty endless and encompass many of our favorite topics, such as telehealth, remote PT or OT training, caregiver support, etc. Consumer version to be released in near future. This is as close as we’re gonna get to beaming for now, Scottie! Exhibitor and member AgeTech Collaborative from AARP.

Jean Ross, RN, CEO and Co-Founder of Primary Record, offers both a B2C and B2B solution that brings data together in one place so that care team members can efficiently access their receiver’s care-related data. Primary Record helps with: Identifying the information needed, organizing it and sharing it, and can even go so far as helping by recording a doctor’s appointment, and making a transcript. One big benefit: once you’ve entered your details into Primary Record, you will be able to “share” that with other medical and healthcare-related entities. Exhibitor near AgeTech Collaborative from AARP.

Cameron Graham, CEO and Co-Founder of Storii, which was developed with healthcare professionals and is available in 10 countries. Storii records life stories by engaging older adults in telling stories about their lives, without writing a word. With Storii, the subscriber (say your grandmother, or even your mom) gets three automated calls a week, asking them key questions that allow them to tell their stories in audio. The recordings can be packaged into “audio books” and remain as a legacy – or it can be more casual. Since Storii can be delivered in many ways (including landline), there is good accessibility. Finalist AgeTech After Dark AgeTech Collaborative from AARP pitch competition.

All great innovations from caring companies!
