David Romanelli is a #1 bestselling author, international speaker, and your guide to bringing old wisdom and ancient healing practices to your modern life. David initiates connection and conversation between the old and the young. Our elders in their 80\u2019s, 90\u2019s and 100\u2019s fought in WWII, survived the Holocaust, marched for civl rights. They are our most precious resource of wisdom and history. Yet, most elders lack a voice in popular culture, and live out their final years in isolation. We can do better. We have to better. David creates an ongoing series of events called DRINKS WITH YOUR ELDERS, bringing the old together with the young in communities across the nation. This inspired David\u2019s third book, LIFE LESSONS FROM THE OLDEST AND WISEST, which shares elders\u2019 advice on parenting, marriage, loyalty, resilience, and having a sense of humor through all the ups and downs. David started teaching yoga in 1999, developed a following, and put a pop-culture spin fusing yoga with modern passions. He started with Yoga + Chocolate which led to Yoga + Wine, Yoga for Foodies and Yoga + Jazz. This fusion of the ancient Eastern world with the pop culture of the modern Western world led to acclaim in The New York Times, O Magazine, Food & Wine, and The Wall Street Journal. During this time, David wrote his debut book, Yeah Dave\u2019s Guide to Livin\u2019 the Moment, which reached #1 on Amazon\u2019s Self Help Bestseller List. From yoga, David found a natural segue into the ancient practice of meditation. He leads guided meditation programs for every generation (adults, teens, and kids). These programs are entertaining and totally relatable, with a focus on real life\u2026marriage, parenting, sports, business, friendships. His meditations are featured on the award winning mobile app Happier and his kids meditations are featured on Stop, Breathe, Think which has won multiple Webby Awards for Best App in the Health Category.
