Listen to Dr. Siri Chand Kaur Khalsa and reflect on conventional, western medical practice vs. lifestyle and integrative medicine. Learn about Dr. Siri Khalsa’s transition from working at the Mayo Clinic to studying Ayurveda and finding empathy for the internal battles and burnout that many physicians face. Be reminded to fill your cup first and realize that the healer must give to themselves what they wish to extend to others.
In this episode, Heather and Siri Chand discuss:
Dr. Siri Chand Kaur Khalsa has had a life-long interest in mindful living as the basis for long-term vitality of mind, body, and spirit. She completed a residency in Internal Medicine at The Mayo Clinic in 2005 and is board-certified in Internal Medicine, Integrative Medicine, and Hospice/Palliative Medicine. Dr. Khalsa has deepened her studies on health and healing by becoming a Yoga Instructor, Reiki Master, and participating in a 2-year full-time program on Ayurveda at The Ayurvedic Institute in Albuquerque and India. Serving as an Integrative Medicine PCP, an instructor at the University of Arizona Integrative Medicine fellowship for physicians, and consultant to other medical practices, she has dedicated her career to promoting an increased understanding in clinical medicine of the link between long term vitality and the daily choices we make. She is currently focusing her energy to support physicians who want to expand their personal understanding of new ways of healing through an experiential process utilizing techniques in Ayurveda, yoga, mindfulness, and plant-based nutrition. www.drsirichand.com
