Some people have mental health issues that seem to come from nowhere, and with no explanation. Could it be that these issues are actually a gift from your ancestors, even though they seem to have no cause for occurring in your own life? The answer may surprise you. In this episode of The Brain Warrior’s Way, Dr. Daniel Amen and Tana Amen discuss Daniel’s favorite dragon from his ‘Dragons from the Past’, which is the Ancestral Dragon. Dr. Amen and Tana explain just how mental health traits are handed down, and how to recognize when they may be an issue in your life.
