Pranayama & Meditation to the Rescue!

Featured Practice, Pranayama

In 2017, CNN’s Anderson Cooper interviewed former First Lady Hillary Clinton about her new book and her mention of her Yoga practice in the book. It was Dr. Dean Ornish (a senior student of Swami Satchidananda and pioneering lifestyle medicine researcher), who first introduced the Clintons to Yoga and meditation and to Swami Satchidananda, who gave them mantras. In 2019, Cooper also interviewed supermodel Gisele Bündchen about her new book and her daily pranayama and meditation practice, which helped her heal from panic attacks. These videos show the stress-busting power and health benefits of Yoga practices!
