Mental health and physical well-being with a dose of humor? Yes, please! Welcome to the Tune-Up! The mission of The Tune-Up is to promote vibrant health and mental wellness with a side-order of levity. The Tune-Up podcast is hosted by Sara Zee, founder of The Wellness Garage. A former professional movement teacher and meditation instructor, Sara has a love of holistic treatments and alternative techniques that are designed to optimize well-being, but she is allergic to taking herself too seriously. As a parent and someone who has suffered from anxiety and panic disorders for over a decade, she uses this podcast to share her journey to creating a thriving life while coping with anxiety using methods like mindfulness meditation, tapping, western medicine (hello, Big Pharma!), and of course laughter. What's more, she shares her experience using evidence-based tools to improve the health and mental well-being of her own kids.
