If you are trying to improve memory or offset the risk for developing
memory loss or Alzheimer's disease, regular practice of yoga and meditation
could be a simple, safe and lowcost solution to improving brain fitness, a
new research suggests.
The team found that a threemonth course of Kundalini yoga and Kirtan Kriya
meditation practice helped minimise the cognitive and emotional problems
that often precede Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia.
Kirtan Kriya, which involves chanting, hand movements and visualisation of
light, has been practised for hundreds of years in India as a way to prevent
cognitive decline in older adults.
Yoga and meditation were more effective than the memoryenhancement
exercises that have been considered the gold standard for managing mild
cognitive impairment, the findings showed.

“Memory training was comparable to yoga with meditation in terms of improving
memory , but yoga provided a broader benefit than memory training because it
also helped with mood, anxiety and coping skills,“ said the study's senior author
Helen Lavretsky , professor at University of California, Los Angeles. The study of 25
participants, all over the age of 55, measured changes not just in be haviour but
also in brain activity .Eleven participants received one hour a week of memory-
enhancement training and spent 20 minutes a day performing memory exercises -
verbal and visual association and other practical strategies for improving memory ,
based on research-backed techniques.
The other 14 participants took a one-hour class once a week in Kundalini yoga and
practised Kirtan Kriya meditation at home for 20 minutes. After 12 weeks, the
researchers saw similar improvements among participants in both groups in verbal
memory skills -which come into play for remembering names and lists of words.

But those who had practised yoga and meditation had better improvements
than the other participants in visual-spatial memory skills, which come into
play for recalling locations and navigating while walking or driving. The yoga-
meditation group also had better results in terms of reducing depression and
anxiety . IANS
Eat seafood once a week to stay sharp
Including seafood or other foods containing omega-3 fatty acids at least once
a week in your diet may protect against age-related memory loss and
thinking problems in older people, says a study. People who ate more
seafood had reduced rates of decline in the semantic memory, which is
memory of verbal information. They also had slower rates of decline in a test
of perceptual speed, or the ability to quickly compare letters, objects and
patterns, the study said.
