Heart health plays a vital role in protecting the brain, and uncontrolled blood pressure can increase the risk of strokes, memory loss, and cognitive decline. This workshop will explore how hypertension affects brain function, early warning signs of stroke, and the latest research on maintaining healthy blood pressure. Participants will learn the right methods for measuring blood pressure accurately, including best practices for home monitoring, proper posture, and avoiding common mistakes. The session will also include practical strategies such as stress-reduction techniques, heart-healthy meal planning, and simple exercises to support circulation. By the end of this interactive session, seniors will have easy-to-follow tools to improve heart health, protect brain function, and make lasting lifestyle changes.
