178. Heather Grzych on Reinventing Primary Care
Manage episode 514210919 series 3675414
Author and Ayurvedic practitioner Heather Grzych explores what it means to reinvent primary care through the lens of Ayurveda. She reflects on how modern medicine is good at fixing the body when it breaks, while Ayurveda teaches us to listen long before disease appears. Drawing from her own journey — from studying ancient Ayurvedic methods to partnering with doctors and reading blood work — Heather invites listeners to reimagine a healthcare system rooted in prevention, relationship, and vitality. The episode closes with a short meditation that envisions a future where primary care truly honors the wisdom of the body.
