DR AVANTI KUMAR SINGH - AYURVEDA

Dr. Kumar-Singh demystifies Ayurveda and other integrated medicine, showing how these simple, ancient practices are the key to unlocking a healthy modern life. Having encountered the limitations of Western medicine, Dr. Kumar-Singh left her career after years in emergency medicine to study the traditional, ancient healing practices of the East, with an emphasis on Ayurveda. She now teaches these traditions to students and practitioners around the world. Today, she bridges the gap between Western and Eastern medicine, helping others discover the healing wisdom within.

She is also the author of The Health Catalyst book (which has been praised by Gwyneth Paltrow!) & host of the Healing Catalyst podcast
