Your brainwaves. Analyzing brainwaves has been possible for nearly a century, but neuroscientists are now widening their awareness of the wealth of information brainwaves can hold about who we are—and that information's power. Neuroscientist R. Douglas Fields examines the current frontiers of the new brain science and what its research means for medicine, technology, and our understanding of ourselves. He explores how information drawn from brainwaves has the potential to reveal hidden signifiers of mental illness and neurological disorders; the role brainwaves can play in improving cognitive performance and health; and how they can be used to control devices from prosthetic limbs to fighter drones. He also looks ahead to the possibilities that future developments in brainwave research may open. That was our guest today, Dr. R. Douglas Fields, reading from his new book, Electric Brain.

Mary Linn - Vital Voices: Endangered Languages in a Changing World The Not Old Better Show, Smithsonian Associates Art Of Living Series Happy Holidays everyone. Welcome to The Not Old Better Show. I'm Paul Vogelzang and this is episode #418. As part of our Smithsonian Associates Art of Living Interview Series, our guest today is Mary Linn, Curator of Cultural and Linguistic Revitalization for the Smithsonian Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage (CFCH). As a matter of fact, we're listening to some Smithsonian Folkways Recordings of a Harvest Song, and the CFCH Music from South New Guinea series. Mary Linn discusses with us how indigenous languages are linked to health, education, and employment, as well as the vital connection they provide to the continuity of knowledge and cultural practices. Mary Linn also tells us how speakers of endangered and minoritized languages are engaged in innovative efforts to reclaim them, thus revitalizing, and drawing on examples from several resilient communities, including unwritten languages. One of the examples of an unwritten language that we'll discuss is the language of Chuukese. Mary Linn will hear some Chuukese spoken to her by my son, Avery Vogelzang, which we'll also do during our interview, and now, just to give you a sense of this language. I will tell you, too, that Chuukese isn't a language that Mary Linn is focused on, however, it is one of the languages that could easily be in need of linguistic revitalization, as it is spoken by a very small population in the Federated State of Micronesia. That, of course, is my son, Avery Vogelzang, speaking a brief bit of Chuukese, but we'll now be joined by Mary Linn, Curator of Cultural and Linguistic Revitalization for the Smithsonian Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage.

I love the holidays. I enjoy this time of year because of family, faith, giving, receiving and holiday travel. Yes, I'll say it again…I do enjoy holiday travel, but not everybody does. Some don't enjoy the chaos of the mass transit systems, the bedlam at the airports and the sheer number of us out and about. But I love it. Some just plain don't like holiday travel because of the upheaval to our lives, our body clocks, and what being in new places means to our digestion and health. It is really easy to overlook good health when we travel.

But health is one thing that shouldn't be set aside when you're trying to sidetrack your daily responsibilities for a little rest and relaxation. So, Stacy Koski will share some tips and tricks that health professionals have for three popular vacation travel options — cars, planes, and cruises.

Exercise Helps Anxiety and Depression - John Ratey, MD Fitness Friday Interview Series Welcome to The Not Old Better Show. I'm Paul Vogelzang, and this is episode #413. Today's show is brought to you by AirMedCare Network. As part of our Fitness Friday expert interview series, today's guest is best selling author, neuropsychiatrist, Dr. John Ratey. Associate clinical professor of psychiatry at Harvard University, John J. Ratey MD, is an internationally recognized expert in Neuropsychiatry, and has published over 60 peer-reviewed articles and 11 books, including the groundbreaking ADHD "Driven to Distraction" series, and "Spark, The Revolutionary New Science of Exercise and the Brain." Chances are good that you, or someone you know, is dealing with anxiety. One in five Americans over 18 reported having a chronic anxiety disorder during the past year. Anxiety can increase a person's risk for other psychiatric disorders like depression and can contribute to diabetes and cardiovascular problems. One sobering study shows that people with anxiety tend to be more sedentary and do less intense forms of physical activity if any. That's ironic, because physical activity, and moving our muscles may be the single best non-medical solution we have for preventing and treating anxiety. That, of course, is our guest today, Dr. John Ratey. Please join me in welcoming to The Not Old Better Show via internet phone, Dr. John Ratey.
