SMH-Venice HealthConnection: Mind + Body Connection

Part workout and part lecture, this hour at Sarasota Memorial's Venice campus treats brain health and physical activity as one subject. Sessions open with gentle stretching and mindful breathing, move into a short educational segment, and finish with brain-boosting exercises and, by design, some laughter. SMH health coach Kaytlin Bliss has led the class this year. It meets in the HealthConnection suite on the first floor of the North Venice hospital, the community classroom where Sarasota Memorial physicians and staff also run sessions on topics such as nutrition and fall risk. Seating is limited and reservations are required.
