This means an opportunity to seamlessly integrate these activities in everything from fitness to hospitality. There has been a plethora of published research in the last three years reviewing the positive effects of exercise on mental health: from the effects of yoga on people with schizophrenia, to the improvement of sleep quality, to alleviating alcohol dependence\u2014 because of exercise\u2019s ability to decrease cravings.

During the conference, it was noted that brain health is no longer just a health issue, it&#8217;s an economic emergency.\u202fThe McKinsey Health Institute estimates brain health disorders cost the global economy $5 trillion annually. By investing strategically in brain health, we can build the foundations for future prosperity.
