In celebration of our fifth anniversary, we’re re-releasing one of our favorite episodes from the past year. In this episode, Dr. Graham Taylor sits down with Dr. Ishan Shivanand. Ishan is a distinguished mental health researcher and professor specializing in non-pharmaceutical, non-invasive meditative modalities. As the Founder of Yoga of Immortals (also known as YOI) programs, Ishan has developed innovative wellness initiatives tailored to diverse demographics, including youth, professionals, athletes, and military personnel. Rooted in ancient yogic wisdom and healing sciences of India, YOI protocols encompass breathwork, yogic techniques, and cognitive stimulation to combat stress, burnout, and promote mental resilience. With scientifically proven results demonstrating significant improvements in anxiety, depression, and insomnia, Ishan's programs have impacted over a million participants worldwide and garnered integration into numerous governmental, healthcare, and corporate institutions. We’re excited to have Ishan with us today to discuss Yoga of Immortals, his resilience training programs and exploring this concept he called “restful alertness”.

Hosted by the team at Triad, Behavioral Health Today moves beyond the clinic to explore how mental health intersects with everything from daily routines to broader societal shifts. Each conversation focuses on practical insights and evidence-based perspectives, making complex topics accessible without oversimplifying them. While the discussions are particularly valuable for professionals like psychologists, counselors, social workers, and marriage family therapists, they resonate with anyone curious about the science of human behavior. You’ll hear nuanced takes on current events, wellness trends, and social dynamics, all through a behavioral health lens. This isn’t just a theoretical exercise; the podcast consistently connects ideas to real-world application, offering listeners a deeper understanding of the forces that shape our minds and communities. Tune in for a thoughtful, grounded approach to the conversations that matter most in our field. The Behavioral Health Today podcast is a reliable source for those looking to stay informed and reflective in an ever-changing world.
