Covid got you down? Most Americans are lonelier and more depressed than they've EVER been. You may be one of them, but you don't have to be, we have some solutions for you.


In his return to our show, Dr. Daniel Amen, whom the Washington Post called "the most popular psychiatrist in America," acknowledges a surge in his suicidal clientele, but he is not giving up hope.


By offering simple, everyday strategies like Havening or, even habitually saying to ourselves, "today is going to be a great day," we can create noticeable shifts in our everyday life. Dr. Amen discusses the "dragons" that breathe fire into our past traumas, and how we can fight those dragons to find peace, even though we're facing the most challenging chapter of our current century.


Dr. Amen also gives a list of amazing natural remedies for depression like Omega-3, saffron, and lavender, which studies have proven can act as natural anti-depressants.


Trust me, we understand how hard it is right now, but there is hope!
