Healthy Aging for Your Brain: Strategies for Women in Recovery

Sponsored by Lifespan, University of Rochester Aging Institute, and Alzheimer’s Association

Following a 12-Step Recovery plan usually has three tenets: stop using your drug of choice, go to meetings, and get a sponsor. As we age however, we need to expand our skill set to deal with the risks of chronic disease and dementia. It’s time for Recovery programs to incorporate a wider lens to help women understand better how to take care of our bodies and our brains.  This FREE virtual education experience for women in recovery will explain the “Wheels Of Health” while focusing specifically on nutrition, exercise, sleep, and stress management. By incorporating these healthy strategies into recovery plans and aligning with others doing the same, women can improve their own health while they reimagine the future of 12-Step Recovery for generations of women to follow.
