SUMMARY:Empowering The Aging Brain Program - Part 3 🔀
DESCRIPTION:Empowering the aging brain \nTHree-Part Series \nIn-Person: Ellman Chapel \nOnline: Zoom \n\nJoin Online\n \nThis series is designed for individuals and families interested in improving cognitive function\, optimizing brain health and taking informed proactive steps. \nDrawing on current neuroscience and clinical experience\, Dr. Dov Pine explains how brain networks change with age\, why some changes are reversible or modifiable\, and evidence-based strategies for cultivating brain-body adaptability and resilience. Each session will conclude with a Q&A discussion. \nDr. Pine is a chiropractor and integrative healthcare provider who focuses on age-related cognitive change and dementia\, with particular emphasis on modifiable risk factors and rehabilitation strategies. He is the Founder and Clinical Director of the Empowered Brain Program\, a multidisciplinary center dedicated to cognitive decline and dementia rehabilitation\, and also directs a physical-based Cognitive Decline Rehabilitation Program in Newcastle\, New South Wales\, Australia. \n \nThe three sessions are outlined below: \nSession 1: The Aging Brain – What's Normal and What's Not\nAs we age\, changes in memory\, attention\, and thinking are common—but not all cognitive change is "just aging." This talk explains how the brain normally changes over time\, what should not be considered normal\, and why many early warning signs are often missed or dismissed. Attendees will gain a clearer understanding of healthy brain aging\, early red flags\, and why early\, informed action matters when supporting and rehabilitating cognitive function. \nSession 2: Understanding Cognitive Decline and Dementia: Risk Factors and Opportunities for Change\nCognitive decline and dementia do not begin suddenly—they develop over years through a combination of health\, lifestyle\, and neurological factors. This talk outlines key predictors and risk factors\, including cardiovascular health\, blood sugar regulation\, sleep\, stress\, nutrition\, and other modifiable influences. The focus is on where meaningful opportunities for change still exist and how supporting brain network function can influence cognitive trajectory over time. \nSession 3: Home Strategies for Improving Cognitive Function and Reducing Dementia Risk\nSmall\, consistent actions at home can make a meaningful difference for individuals experiencing cognitive decline or living with dementia. This session focuses on simple\, evidence-informed strategies to optimize cognitive performance\, support brain resilience\, reduce stress\, and improve day-to-day functioning. The emphasis is on practical interventions that integrate into everyday life\, strengthen confidence and connections\, and help people remain actively engaged for as long as possible. \nWe hope these programs will provide useful information and stimulate thoughtful discussion about healthy aging. \nPlease note:  Information regarding this series is being provided for informational and educational purposes to our community. This series  is not promoted or funded by the Synagogue. The Synagogue does not endorse or recommend any individual practitioner's clinical or medical services\, and does not offer professional advice\, diagnosis or treatment.

SUMMARY:🔀 Weekly Parsha Study Series with Rabbi Rosenthal
DESCRIPTION:Weekly Parsha Study Series\nwith Rabbi Rosenthal\n\nWhat if one hour on a Wednesday afternoon could nourish your mind\, your spirit\, and your community — all at once?\n  \nEvery Wednesday at 5 PM EDT\, Rabbi Rosenthal hosts his Weekly Parsha Class\, a warm and lively gathering where we dive deep into the weekly Torah portion together. This isn't a lecture — it's a conversation. A space for honest reflection\, spirited debate\, and the kind of questions that don't always have easy answers. Together\, we explore what our ancient texts have to say about our very modern lives. \nAnd because Torah study is best enjoyed with good company and good taste\, we set the table with wine\, cheese\, and sweets for the palate — and wisdom and discussion for the mind. \nThe class meets every Wednesday at 5 PM EDT — with one exception: there will be no class on Wednesday\, April 1st\, as we will all be gathered around our Seder tables for the first night of Passover. We will resume the following week and continue our journey together. \nBut here's what makes Wednesday evenings truly special: the class flows seamlessly into our Evening Minyan\, giving each participant the opportunity to earn not one\, not two\, but three mitzvahs in a single afternoon: \n✡ Study Torah — Engage deeply with our sacred tradition. \n✡ Help Make a Minyan — Your presence is a gift. When you show up for Evening Minyan\, you are not only making communal prayer possible — you are wrapping your arms around the members of our spiritual family who are saying Kaddish\, holding them up as they find their footing again after losing someone they love deeply. There is no greater act of chesed than simply being there. \n✡ Strengthen the Bonds of Community — Show up for one another\, week after week. \nWhether you are a seasoned Torah scholar or simply curious about what the weekly portion has to say to you\, all are welcome at this table. No prior knowledge required — only an open heart and a willingness to explore. \nJoin us this Wednesday at 5 PM EDT in person or online:  Join Via Zoom\nWe'd love to see you there.
