Desiree Rumbaugh, co-author of Fearless After Fifty: How to Thrive with Grace, Grit and Yoga and creator of the DVD series "Yoga to the Rescue," shares how simple yoga and meditation practices can strengthen, protect and heal. Having navigated the depths of grief after losing her 20-year-old son in 2003, Desiree credits her yoga and meditation practices as the life-support she relied upon to find her way back to a joyful life. Similar to the "do-it-yourself" mentality of home improvement or automobile maintenance, yoga and meditation have been tested over time and are scientifically proven to help humans achieve better overall health and happiness.

With millions sickened from a global pandemic that brought social isolation, grief, fear, and an economy in tatters mixed with anti-racism protests after the killing of George Floyd and the ongoing political divide, we've been brought to our emotional knees.

In this program, psychiatrist Dr. Daniel Amen, the author of Your Brain Is Always Listening; and his wife Tana Amen, an ICU nurse and author of The Relentless Courage of a Scared Child will show you how to tame the hidden dragons that cause these problems to help you feel happier, more positive and more in control of your own emotions.
