Granny's Guide to Having a Great Depression

Think about your parents, grandparents, or great-grandparents. The ones who lived during the great depression and the great war. Weren’t they remarkable? They called both of these horrible events “great.” That’s what made our fore-bearers great: their character, attitude, work ethic and spirit. They not only survived hard times, they thrived.

We have their genes. We can do it, too. If we listen to their advice, we can spend less, lose weight, be healthy, live green, stop global warming and achieve inner peace.

Some of this advice is common sense – but are you doing it? This program reminds you of what you always knew, and inspires you to do it. You’ll also hear new ideas from the ancients of Europe, Asia, the Pacific and the Americas, as found in the Bible, Tao te Ching, native wisdom and old proverbs.

In future posts, we'll cover how they taught us to Delight, Work, Move, Eat, Relax, Love and Pray.
