If we stretch our body and we stretch our mind, does that activate new activity within our body and thoughts? Could the same thing happen at a cellular level? In this episode we explore how the brain works in laymen terms and look at new discoveries in the last 20-30 years including neuroplasticity, neurogenesis, epigenetics and how that impacts our health.   These are brought to us in the new series, Secrets to Revitalizing Your Mind, by Betty Norlin, one of our Ambassadors of Health on our podcast, Be Healthy in a Hurry. Learn about her wellness, writing, and speaking programs at www.bettynorlin.com.   In this session we will explore:
