Opioid use disorders sharply increased during the early 21st century, contributing to the growing public health crisis referred to as the U.S. Opioid Epidemic. Originally designed for medical use, fentanyl, a synthetic opioid, largely contributes to the number of opioid-related deaths in the U.S. and is now a major part of the illicit drug market. Because fentanyl was originally produced for analgesic and anesthetic purposes, it has a very high potency, which poses a higher risk for overdose. Individuals who develop fentanyl dependencies and addictions can seek treatment through behavioral therapies and counseling or addition medications designed for opioid dependencies.

This INR webinar, "Power of Intentional Movement," explores evidence-based strategies for applying mindful and intentional movement principles to exercise and physical activity to maintain or improve health. Health care professionals will learn how to integrate intentional movement to support physical function, emotional regulation, fall prevention, and cognitive resilience in patients across all age groups and different clinical settings. Mr. Kent Howard will introduce a wide variety of intentional movement exercises, including Tai Chi, chair yoga, mindful walking, and breath-centered flow activities that are adapted for varying levels of mobility, cognition, and ability. Studies show that increased daily physical activity and targeted intention-based exercise routines could be, depending on the situation, as effective or more effective than medications, and far safer. Exercise programs may also be tailored for patients and clients who are unable to walk or have other physical challenges. For example, multicomponent chair-based interventions can improve motor functions and cognition in nonambulatory patients. Health care professionals may also find these exercises helpful for self-care as well, to help reduce burnout and manage stress for better work-life balance.
