PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

The Show Goes On


Dear friend,


Prevention, once viewed as fringe science, is now globally recognized as the frontier of cognitive longevity. But while lifestyle medicine is currently having its moment in the spotlight, our commitment isn't new. For 33 years, ARPF has been quietly doing the heavy lifting: conducting, publishing, and championing peer-reviewed clinical research on integrative brain health.


Because of that foresight, our work is more relevant today than ever. To celebrate our 33rd anniversary, we've opened our vault to share our gold-standard presentations on brain health and Alzheimer's Prevention.

It’s not too late to catch the ARPF Greatest Hits: Docuseries, which launched on Tuesday, August 4, 2026. It’s airing all month long, so you still have time to join and access the replays. Each session is specially edited to focus on practical, time-tested takeaways you can put to work immediately.


"Brilliant review of research and applying the principles of yoga and types of postures to improve brain function and overall wellbeing."


"Excellent presentation – lots of info to process and incorporate into my lifestyle!"


And here’s the fun part: it’s highly interactive. We have a dedicated live Q&A where you can ask questions, share insights, and learn together.


We can't wait to connect with you. Just register! You won’t regret it.


Yours in Brain Health,


Dharma Singh Khalsa, M.D.

President / Medical Director

DONOR SPOTLIGHT

Silver Fox Golf Outing

We are incredibly honored to share the success of a very special event: The Annual Silver Fox Classic Golf Outing.


This tradition is held in loving memory of Ron Schulberger, who passed away from Alzheimer’s disease in 2017. Ron’s family and friends chose to turn his legacy into a powerful force for hope, awareness, and prevention.



The Silver Fox Classic has become a beacon of community spirit. For Ron's son, Todd Schulberger, the event is a blend of remembering the quality and impact of his father’s life while actively funding the future of brain health and longevity.


ARPF is extremely grateful to be the beneficiary of this outing.

WEBINAR RECAP

Aging as a Spiritual Journey

We had an exemplary webinar presented by Dr. Chris Walling, PsyD, MBA, C-IAYT, FABP. Here's what participants said:


"Thank you for offering this amazing, deeply inspiring presentation! I was moved by this broader, and affirming, perspective on aging."

  

"So much depth of knowledge compressed into a 60-minute presentation. I couldn't write fast enough to take down all the pearls of wisdom."


"This was an excellent session. I am continually impressed by this organization. Dr Walling’s insight and knowledge is so needed. I guess I would say - this session spoke to my heart!"

BRAIN LONGEVITY® SPECIALIST SPOTLIGHT

Ashley McKeachie, MA, C-IAYT, E-RYT500, BLS

Ashley McKeachie originally enrolled in the Brain Longevity Therapy Training to better support and empower the older adults she serves. Since then, one of her most rewarding milestones has been sharing Kirtan Kriya with over 200 Saddleback College Emeritus Health and Wellness students – many of whom report a profound sense of calm, clarity, and inner connection.


She shared, "Many students also appreciate learning about the growing body of research supporting meditation as a tool for brain health, which leaves them feeling hopeful, empowered, and motivated to continue. This journey has truly reinforced the power of mindfulness and education in healthy aging, proving firsthand how transformative it is to give older adults practical tools for their brain health and overall well-being."
