As a Western-trained physician, she learned the strengths and limitations of the modern medical system and sought to reach beyond its boundaries. When conventional clinical experience convinced her that she had to be able to offer more to her patients, a return to her roots showed her a powerful path to healing the entirety of people’s beings. In this episode, we explore the root cause of thyroid disorders through the lens of Ayurveda and Allopathy. We also share key insights on the interconnected nature of hormones, mind-body connection and discuss the emotional aspects involved in developing thyroid disorders.
