Fillmore: The Last Days
Legendary rock impresario Bill Graham closed the Fillmore West in summer 1971 with five nights of all-star concerts, the last curtain going down on July 4. The storied San Francisco venue had become an institution, an integral part of the West Coast music scene of the 60s and, now, an essential element of rock ‘n’ roll mythology. Graham made sure the Fillmore West was sent off in a blaze of glory, spotlighting bands — including the Grateful Dead and Santana — that rose to fame at the hall. The madness leading up to the shows and the concerts themselves were filmed for this gritty, behind-the-scenes look at a fascinating moment in rock history by iconic artists who epitomized “the San Francisco Sound.” Originally released in 1972 and long out-of-print, the documentary features highlights from all five nights.

Change Your Brain Change Your Life
A healthy brain is key to a great quality of life. The brain, of course, figures in everything we do — our work life, our relationships, the way we feel and the way we perceive the world. Any damage to the brain, through aging, substance abuse, trauma or other surprising factors — can affect our quality of life adversely. At the same time, making an effort to maintain a healthy brain through activities and protective behaviors that keep it youthful and vital can make every other aspect of your life more positive and more enjoyable.
In Change Your Brain, Change Your Life, best-selling author, psychiatrist and brain-imaging specialist Daniel G. Amen, MD demonstrates how to optimize mental performance and overcome self-defeating behaviors like depression, ADD, and anxiety.
The UltraMind Solution with Dr. Mark Hyman
Is it possible to cure depression, recover from autism, reverse dementia - without the use of drugs or psychotherapy? In a radical departure from the classic therapies, Dr. Mark Hyman shares a revolutionary new method for treating this invisible epidemic of “broken brains” that affect 1 out of every 4 of us.
Based on the emerging field of functional medicine, the cure for brain disorders is outside the brain, in other parts of our bodies, a concept that modern medicine has mostly ignored. Yet the conclusion from science is irrefutable: by healing our bodies, we will heal our brains automatically. Dr. Hyman reveals that by treating the 7 key imbalances in our biology, we allow our body’s natural healing intelligence to take over and automatically heal our brains, leading to an UltraMind - one that’s alert, sharp, focused, happy, energetic and relaxed.
