Supporting Women's Brain Health, Longevity & Stress Resilience through horses

Horse Talk: Equestrian Women's Brain Health, Longevity, and a New Community from The Horse Review   Host Lauren Abbott of The Horse Review shares midweek updates on new content testing across print, digital, and podcasts, and announces a deeper focus on equestrian women's brain health and longevity; especially ages 35+ navigating perimenopause, stress, and changing lifestyles.   She says the community is asking for science-backed research and case studies on how riding supports nervous system regulation, stress resilience, neuroplasticity, and potentially delays cognitive decline. Abbott connects the topic to her mother's catastrophic brain stem stroke and her father's dementia and stroke, noting women's increased insulin resistance during hormonal decline and stroke risk factors like diabetes.   She cites a study of adults 65+ where eight weeks of riding improved brainwave output and memory more than traditional exercise. She invites listeners to join a free biweekly newsletter and optional subscription for full studies and expert interviews, with upcoming neurologist-led podcast episodes.    To join the Equestrian Brain Health and Longevity newsletter opt-in here: https://shorturl.at/yVTMb   00:00 Welcome to Horse Talk 00:34 New Content Direction 03:20 Midlife Equestrian Reality 07:30 Why Brain Health Matters 14:02 Science Behind Riding 17:36 Women Wellness Mission 18:49 Join the Community 24:03 Premium Research Access 25:06 Upcoming Neurology Series 26:14 Final Encouragement
