Trauma isn\\u2019t just psychological; it impacts us all the way down to our genes. And those epigenetic changes don\\u2019t just stay with us\\u2014they can be passed down through several generations. That means the trauma we may be working through isn\\u2019t just our own, it\\u2019s the stress and trauma of our parents, grandparents, and even great grandparents. I know this might sound bleak, but today\\u2019s conversation on The Doctor\\u2019s Farmacy with Dr. James Gordon is about healing from all types of trauma to find greater mind-body peace. 


Dr. James Gordon, author of Transforming Trauma: The Path to Hope and Healing, is a Harvard-educated psychiatrist, and the founder and CEO of the nonprofit Center for Mind-Body Medicine in Washington, D.C. Dr. Gordon is internationally recognized for using self-awareness, self-care, and group support to heal population-wide psychological trauma. He is a clinical professor at Georgetown Medical School and was chairman (under Presidents Clinton and G.W. Bush) of the White House Commission on Complementary and Alternative Medicine Policy.
