Overcoming Trauma

Listen In

Witnessing a traumatic event is emotionally painful and can affect a person for the rest of his life, says Dr. Daniel Siegel, author of The Mindful Brain. Dr. Oz talks with Dr. Siegel about his book and about how people can cope with trauma by reframing the event into something that is a lesson rather than a painful memory.

Plus, Dr. Oz talks with Steve Ross, a noted yoga teacher who survived the November 2008 terrorist attacks in Mumbai, India, but lost friends during the tragic event. They talk about how Steve is coping in the tragedy's aftermath.
