In this episode of Resilient Aging // Unfiltered, Dr. Dani Cabral, sits down with Dr. Rashmi Schramm, a family physician and meditation teacher who has dedicated her career to guiding others toward deeper healing. Together, they explore the power of meditation, somatic therapy, and polyvagal theory in restoring balance and resilience — not just for individuals, but for entire communities. Dr. Schramm opens up about her own journey and the transformative role of safe, connected spaces in the healing process. She and Dr. Cabral delve into the unique challenges caregivers face, why self-care is essential (not optional) in their role, and how community can be a lifeline in moments of strain. The conversation closes with Dr. Schramm’s inspiring vision: creating a retreat center where older adults, caregivers, and healers can come together to rest, renew, and reimagine what thriving looks like at every stage of life.
