EP10- Dance and Dementia- दैनिक निर्त्य गर्दा स्मरणशक्ति ह्राश ७६ प्रतिशतले कम हुन्छ

from Upaaya Lab - उपाय ल्याब · host Kamal Dhakal

Namaste and welcome back to Upaaya Lab. I am your host, Kamal Dhakal. We often hear that exercise is good for the body, but what if I told you there is one specific activity that can reduce the risk of dementia by a staggering 76 percent? It’s not running, it’s not weightlifting, and it’s not even a crossword puzzle. It is the art of Dance.Today, we dive deep into the neuroscience of rhythm. We’ll look at a landmark 21-year study from the New England Journal of Medicine to understand how dancing literally rewires our hippocampus. Then, we bridge this modern science with the ancient wisdom of the Shiva Tandava, exploring why the 'Cosmic Dance' is the ultimate technology for a sharp mind and a blissful soul. Let’s simplify the complex and find the 'Upaaya'—the solution—for a healthier brain."हामीले सधैं सुन्दै आएका छौं कि व्यायाम शरीरको लागि राम्रो हुन्छ, तर के तपाईंलाई थाहा छ एउटा यस्तो क्रियाकलाप छ जसले बिर्सने रोग अर्थात् 'डिमेन्सिया' को जोखिमलाई ७६ प्रतिशत सम्म कम गर्न सक्छ? यो दौडनु वा जिम जानु मात्र होइन, यो हो 'नृत्य' अर्थात् नाच।आजको अंकमा हामी लय (Rhythm) को स्नायुविज्ञान अर्थात् Neuroscience को बारेमा गहिरो छलफल गर्नेछौं। हामी न्यु इङ्गल्याण्ड जर्नल अफ मेडिसिनको २१ वर्ष लामो अनुसन्धानलाई केलाउनेछौं र बुझ्नेछौं कि नाचले कसरी हाम्रो मस्तिष्कको 'हिप्पोक्याम्पस' लाई पुनर्जीवित गर्छ। साथै, यो आधुनिक विज्ञानलाई हामी 'शिव ताण्डव' को प्राचीन दर्शनसँग जोड्नेछौं। आउनुहोस्, जटिल सिद्धान्तहरूलाई सरल भाषामा बुझौं र स्वस्थ मस्तिष्कका लागि सही 'उपाय' खोजौं।"Disclaimer: views and material presented in this channel are mine, not of my employer
