Coming May 21, 2:00 PM (Central)
Music, Mindfulness, Memory and Healing
Can music heal? Calm? Enhance memory consolidation? Improve cognitive function in individuals with Alzheimer's disease and Dementia?
Join Dr. Rich on Tuesday at Two (Central) and meet composer Yuval Ron from the Yuval Ron Ensemble. Along with a impromptu oude tune or two, Dr. Rich will ask the composer of the Oscar-Winning Short “West Bank Story” about his MIT study on 40 Hz music improving cognitive tasks, working memory, visual attention, and reaction time. In 30 minutes with Yuval, we’ll learn how to reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety and clean out the gunk that contributes to deterioration of the aging brain. A 15-minute Q&A session will follow.

We are transforming the future of education.
No borders. No walls.
No grade levels. No grades.
No class. (We’ll be the school with no class!)
No age. Every age.
No limits.
Only quests. And questions. And curiosity.
And exploration. And imagination.
And experimentation.
And learning from failure.
Trying something new.
Discovering. Uncovering. Creating worlds together.
Unlocking ancient doors with new keys and friends from all over the world.
And working in teams on a learning adventure of a lifetime -
for a lifetime of learning.
And music. And art. And dance. And theater.
And games. And fun. Fun. Fun.
Maybe we’ll short-circuit the short-circuit of learning disabilities while we’re at it.
