The Anat Baniel Method®/NeuroMovement® is an intervention that uses gentle movement to create new connections in the brain. For stroke survivors, NeuroMovment offers a way to tap into the power of neuroplasticity and re-map the neural connections lost in a stroke. This summer, Cam Compton had the opportunity to work with Tessa Thompson and Nadia Vizitei, two certified NeuroMovement practitioners working in St. Louis, MO. In this interview, Cam talks with Tessa and Nadia about what NeuroMovement is, how it was developed, and how it can help stroke survivors. Listen to Tessa and Nadia discussing this new method with our host Cam.

  Podcasts Let's talk about 3 podcasts in this podcast. After all, the reason, we're podcasters is we like talking about our passions. I mentioned in the previous episode of this show that Microsoft has new technology to create live subtitles as a presenter speaks. I talked about it much more extensively in episode 65 of 2-Minute Talk Tips. You can learn more here. I used the tool to create a transcript of this episode. It's not perfect, but if you'd rather read than listen, click here. I joined Cam Compton on the Hand In Hand show on the Strokefocus network. You can listen to that episode here. You can also explore Strokefocus.net in more detail here. Cam and I talked about our stories, the importance of support groups, keys to recovery, mindset, and exercise. I also appeared on Lyn Henderson's Inside Knowledge podcast. Lyn's show is all about resilience. Based in New Zealand, she interviews folks from around the world to learn how they've overcome challenges to live the lives they want to live. We talk about the warning signs for stroke, the risk factors we must navigate, and the keys to recovery. You can listen to the episode here or check out Lyn's other guests here. Eggs and Tea Medical News today reported on a study in the journal Heart published by the British Cardiovascular Society about a study in China that shows eating one egg a day can reduce the risk of stroke by 12%. If I'm reading the study right, the looked at 461,213 people. Almost daily egg consumption — or around 5.32 eggs per week — was also linked to a 12 percent lower risk of ischemic heart disease, compared with people who never or rarely ate this food (amounting to approximately 2.03 eggs per week). "The present study finds that there is an association between moderate level of egg consumption (up to 1 egg/day) and a lower cardiac event rate," the study authors explain. In the US, eggs are pretty much demonized when it comes to questions about cholesterol and vascular health. Of course, that doesn't stop us from eating the. It seems to me the key, as in most things is moderation. In effort to eat more healthfully, I've reduced my egg yolk consumption. I picked up a carton of liquid egg whites, and now instead of cooking 3 or 4 eggs, I'll cook one egg and make up the difference with egg white. I can't really taste the difference so it's a win. Plus, it's easier to deal with the carton one handed than to crack a bunch of eggs one handed. I encountered another study this week about the benefits of Green Tea. Cardio Vascular Business reports on a study published in the Journal of Biological Chemistry with the headline,"Green tea component may prevent heart attack, stroke." That's great news, because green tea is mighty tasty. And green tea Kit Kats are awesome. But it pays to read a little more deeply. "Our results show that this intriguing compound might also be effective against the types of plaques which can cause heart attacks and strokes." The researchers said a normal amount of green tea is unlikely to have a significant effect on heart health. It's intriguing research, but we are unlikely to get the benefit by simply drinking more tea. Still, it's great to see this; perhaps they will be able to turn this chemical into a thing later on. In the meantime, enjoy your tea. Strokeaversary June 3 was my first Strokeaversary. So it's been a weird week. I'm not satisfied with my progress, but I'm further along than I ought to be.

In Episode 20, we interviewed Keith Taylor, a business owner and survivor. At that time, Keith is still working on his concept. Now, 6 months later, Keith's new business is ready to launch. Strength After Stroke is a company that was created by Keith Taylor for helping stroke survivors to regain their confidence and get their lives back on track. Keith has recently launched his signature program called the BASE Program. BASE is an acronym for Belief, Attitude, Strength, and Energy. In this latest segment of Hand in Hand podcast interviews, Cam Compton interviews Keith and his Business Coach/Manager, James Evanow from Pace Your Self Empowerment Systems. Evanow has been instrumental in getting the BASE Program and Strength After Stroke as he puts it, “untied from the dock and on her way towards its destination.” Strength After Stroke and the BASE Program are already helping many people to find a new course direction in their lives and to gain a new and revitalized path after dealing with such a life-changing event as a stroke. In this episode, you will learn more about the program, and what Keith has been able to accomplish with his coach James Evanow.

Statistics has shown that stroke survivors are far more concerned about challenges in adjustment to "the New Normal" than anything else. Communication is on the top of the list. It is not just aphasia. Survivors often find it hard to share their thoughts and experience with loved ones. The change is too traumatic and drastic. Making the situation more complex, not so many researchers are focusing on this. Now there is a researcher turning his focus on this issue. Bryan Abendschein, a doctoral candidate in the Department of Communication at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign is specialized in researches that "exploring how relational partners encounter, manage, and discuss times of stressful change". Bryan has found that stroke survivors a unique community that deserves far more attention. Bryan is recruiting survivors to participate in his study. Our host Cam Compton recently joined Bryan's program. "It is thought provoking!" Cam commented. To learn about Bryan's research, listen to his interview with the Hand in Hand Show. To contact Bryan, email him at abendsc2@illinois.edu, or find more about his study and his information at https://bryanabendschein.weebly.com/
