Summary
We know that sometimes traumas from your past can linger and affect your present, but did you know that traumas from someone else's past can do the same thing?

In this episode of the podcast, Dr. Daniel and Tana Amen discuss epigenetics, in particular the story of Tana's grandmother, whose trauma has manifested for generations.
