We're bringing up a controversial topic in this episode. Is holistic medicine in danger? Is it either science or holistic medicine, can we have both? Do we have to pick one?
Does holistic medicine, naturopathic medicine, homeopathy, Ayurveda ACTUALLY WORK?
Is our health being capitalized on? Does keeping people in a state of disease keep revenue coming in?
These are all of the questions we are pondering in today’s conversation.

Our last conversation we talked about the importance of being in integrity, or authenticity with our minds, values and community. Just like a pianist must possess the mental skill, a functional instrument, and the heart of the music in order to play a beautiful concerto, you must be in total alignment in these three areas in order to allow your visions and passions to manifest.
And TODAY we’re going to continue exploring Ayurveda’s tried-and true solutions to help you achieve optimal wellness and fulfillment in your personal and professional life.
You are going to learn:
What does balance mean according to Ayurveda?
What is a dosha and how are each of the 3 doshas different?
How to assess your dosha (hint, we have a self-assessment quiz, be sure to take that so you can get the most out of this episode).
A sneak peak into a few pro tips for balancing your dosha(s).
By the way, did you know that Hadlee and I created a Mini Course which will help you to create clarity around what success is for YOU and how to achieve success with your doshas/mind body constitution: Your Ayurvedic Dosha: The Key to Your Success.
