You'll find plenty of interesting things on the 600-plus acres of diverse land off St. Stephens Church Road. The site near Mt. Pleasant will be the home of a new County nature park. It offers a variety of unique natural features. But something else has drawn interest, and it's not so natural: Several hundred feet of meticulously stacked stone walls. The structures have puzzled County workers and residents.  There are plenty of questions, but two things are clear: Whoever built those walls put in a lot of time. And they did a great job—the walls have stood the test of time.  We went on a field trip to see the walls firsthand (photo below), then sat down with CabCo team members and property neighbors to get some answers to the mystery of the St. Stephens Rock Wall Mystery.  If you can help us with the mystery, email host Dominique Clark at daclark@cabarruscounty.us.  GUESTS:  Jacob Wentink, Active Living and Parks Program Manager Daniel McClellan, Senior Resource Conservation Specialist Richard Earnhardt, Cabarrus resident Leona Brown, Cabarrus resident HOSTED BY: Dominique Clark  PRODUCED BY:  Cabarrus County Communications and Outreach

In the time that it takes to say this sentence – three seconds – someone in the world will develop dementia, a group of symptoms impacting memory, thinking, mood, behaviour and the ability to complete everyday tasks. Alzheimer's is the most common form of dementia.With people living longer, even into their 90s and beyond, dementia is becoming the biggest and most consequential global health threat of our time. But, according to a landmark study in The Lancet medical journal, there are 12 modifiable risk factors that can reduce your chances of getting dementia at any age – by up to 40%. In this episode of Your Complex Brain, we discuss which of those risk factors are most impactful to lower – or even reverse – your risk of dementia, with a focus on the latest science looking at the benefits of exercise.Featuring: Maria Martinez has been a social worker nearly 25 years.

Dr. Steven Lome highlights the astonishing fact that heart disease has remained the leading cause of death in the US for over a century. Despite its largely preventable nature, more Americans succumbed to heart disease in 2022 than soldiers lost in all US wars combined. By drawing a comparison between the resources dedicated to acute interventions and the meager emphasis on prevention, Dr. Lome challenges the profit-driven healthcare system. He advocates for a paradigm shift, emphasizing lifestyle changes as a potent weapon against various diseases. By addressing systemic cultural and financial obstacles, he believes that a more effective and humane approach to healthcare is attainable. #HeartDisease #LifestyleMedicine #HealthcareReform

Where do you start with your move when you have no map and it's a long journey? The angst of trying to find the first steps in an uncleared path of having to relocate your home. It can be paralyzing. We are joined by the experts from Pathfinders Downsizing, who are part of the National Association of Senior Move Manager.  We discuss how the effects of  how a relocation project can be daunting but often for older adults it truly becomes exacerbated by a lifetime of accumulated belongings, health issues, even cognitive decline, and compressed timelines.

While I was recently in College Station visiting the Human Behavior Lab, I had the joy of meeting Dr. Maddock when he came by to chat with us for a bit. I hadn't met him before, but in learning about his work and research it was clear that we had to do an interview. Thankfully, I had my equipment with me and he had some spare time to talk about some of the incredibly cool stuff he and his team are doing.  Dr. Maddock is a professor in the department of environmental and occupational health at the school of public health at Texas A&M University and is also the co-director of the Center for Health and Nature. He serves on the Brazos County Board of Health. Not to mention he is editor in chief of the Journal of Healthy Eating and Active Living. He has authored more than 130 scientific articles which have been cited more than 5000 times, plus his research has been featured on/in The Today Show, BBC, CNN, Eating Well, Prevention and Good Housekeeping and he has given lectures around the world. This isn't even all of his bio, but I wanted to let you know a little bit about this awesomeness before you hear about the cool stuff he is doing. Listen in to hear all about the connection between nature and our health. It is really amazing! Show Notes: [01:16] Dr. Maddock is a professor in the department of environmental and occupational health at the School of Public Health at Texas A&M University and is also the co-director of the Center for Health and Nature. [03:47] Jay shares about his background and what he does. [05:16] They are really looking at how natural environments change health. Spending time in nature really changes your health. [05:59] They are now trying to understand what is the perfect dose of nature and how they can use some of the models to get more people into nature. [07:46] Virtual reality lets us break the senses up. They can do a study experimenting with only one sense.  [08:40] They are trying to figure out the essential pieces of nature that we need for healthy benefits. [09:47] People like different types of nature.  [10:49] The more that we feel we are in the environment, the more effect it has on our physiology.  [11:29] There are so many questions we can answer in virtual reality that would be difficult to do in person.   [12:48] Making environments immersive and interesting is important for people. Being in real nature is always best for us, but since that isn't always possible, it will be great to have other options.  [14:49] How we can integrate nature into our surrounding and environment is important.  [15:55] They have been looking at the effect of travel and nature. So many times when we go on vacation we want to go to some beautiful natural spot, but we also have an effect on the environment.  [17:34] The ability to virtually tour places that are untouched would be really cool.  [18:11] The biggest thing with health and nature is it doesn't work without conservation.  [18:45] One of the other things they have been working on is looking at some of the behavioral theories that we use and how we adopt these to increase people's time in nature.  [21:27] Melina shares her closing thoughts.  [23:53] If you enjoy the experience I've provided here for you, will you share about it?
