Dear friends,<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

From our very inception, we\u2019ve been on the forefront of Alzheimer\u2019s prevention. Whether it\u2019s research, providing public education with our famous memory screenings, or training folks in our groundbreaking Brain Longevity\u00ae Therapy Training (BLTT), we are and will continue to be #1.\u00a0<\/p>\n

We are the first and only organization to make yoga, meditation, spirituality, and environmental wellness central to our work.<\/strong> Rest assured, we will continue publishing white papers and other materials based on our cutting-edge research.<\/p>\n

Kirti Khalsa, ARPF CEO, has just completed a remarkable booklet, Yoga for Healthy Aging<\/em>, featuring interviews with Brain Longevity\u00ae Specialists, yoga therapists, and others about their experiences practicing and teaching yoga in their businesses and communities. It will be released soon.<\/p>\n

Yes, this has been an excellent year for ARPF. Several medical journals have recognized our groundbreaking work, and BLTT continues to thrive, attracting more paraprofessionals in the medical field.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019m developing a research idea inspired by a paper I recently reviewed as Prevention Editor for the Journal of Alzheimer\u2019s Disease<\/em>. The study found that indoor pollution can adversely alter gene activity and contribute to memory loss.<\/p>\n

As you may know, our UCLA research found that Kirtan Kriya \u2013 our remarkable 12-minute meditation \u2013 produced beneficial genetic effects, including reduced expression of inflammatory genes. I propose a more advanced study to examine how yoga and Kirtan Kriya may influence genes that protect against memory loss.<\/p>\n

As we look around the corner and into the new year of 2027, we would love to have your assistance.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Can we count on you for a nice year-end donation<\/a> to help keep us going strong?\u00a0<\/p>\n
