Fall Prevention

"Before we dive in, let’s think about the fall. No, not autumn—the one we all worry about in old age. Ever consider that today’s skipped balance exercises might lead to tomorrow’s tumble? Here’s the good news: ‘Clearing the Clouds’ sharpens your mind, ‘Mindful Mover’ keeps you on your feet, ‘Resilience Ritual’ gives you strength, and ‘6-Minute Reset’ makes it all manageable. Because nobody wants a lifetime membership to ‘fall prevention’ classes in their seventies!"

"Quick pause! Now, I know you’re here to clear that mental fog, but let’s not forget the whole body that’s carrying it around. Remember the last time you really had to go, but the bathroom was, say, a hundred feet away? No problem now, but in a few years? It might feel like the New York Marathon. Good news—we’ve got podcasts to help! ‘Resilience Ritual’ will keep you strong, ‘Mindful Mover’ gets you moving, and ‘6-Minute Reset’ helps keep those habits in check. After all, staying light on your feet might keep you light on your bladder too, if you know what I mean."
