Yoga and Brain Health w/Jane Stelboum

Jane Stelboum is a yoga teacher and teacher trainer in the Washington, DC metro area, and a Certified Brain Longevity Specialist through the Alzheimer’s Research and Prevention Foundation’s Brain Longevity®Therapy Training. She founded Sarasvate (sar-as-vah-te´) in 2012 in honor of her mother Sarah, whom she lost to Alzheimer’s. The company’s mission is to prevent memory-related diseases like Alzheimer’s and help those already impacted maintain a high quality of life as long as possible. She does this through workshops, caregiving training sessions, speaking engagements and private sessions in which she shares how the tools of yoga (breath, meditation and the physical practice) can positively impact memory and cognitive function. Jane has been a featured speaker at conferences by the Smithsonian Associates, Aging Life Care Association, Alzheimer’s Foundation of America, and many yoga studios, senior living communities and corporate offices throughout the east coast.
