Moving Freely & Brain Health - we presented our movement with music program to care leaders in the Macedon Ranges shire today. 🌷🙏🌷

Neurological conditions impact everything in life - balance, movement, memory and emotions.

There are over 40% of the entire world population are affected by neurological conditions such as Parkinson’s disease (PD), dementia, motor neuron disease (MND), stoke. People living with neurological conditions may develop dementia. Dementia is currently NO.1 cause of death in Australia. There has been no cure found so far for some of the above conditions. Neurological conditions could become new pandemic in the upcoming era.

International researchers have been exploring strategies to manage these conditions. Researchers from Harvard University, Yale medical school and other worldwide institutes have discovered that music and movement can slow down the disease and even possibly reverse the neuro degeneration process.

For this reason, Moving Freely & Brain Health recreational program was born. This program creates a socially safe space for people to connect and enjoy the benefits of music, movement and creativity! There is weekly in-person session at Gisborne uniting church community hall (23 Brantome Street, Gisborne VIC, Australia) every Saturday from 2pm to 3pm plus social time 🎶🎸🕺👩‍🦽‍➡️💝🧠🍊☕️🍰.

Everyone can join us. You do not need to have the conditions to participate our program. Carers and family members are welcome.

We ask you to take a pledge to be part of this wonderful program, so you and your loved ones can benefit from Moving Freely & Brain Health. 🥰🙏🥰

We also support mental health 🌷🫶🏻🙏🫶🏻🌷

We are proud to support foodbank Foodbank Victoria who gave what they can to those in need. 💖🙏💖

Protein is probably one of the most crucial food source for people with Parkinson’s disease, however it can interfere with the absorption of the medication such as levodopa. Please consult with your doctors how much waiting time is required before taking medication.
