Stop Compartmentalising Your Health: A H...

Ever feel like your health is treated as a checklist of symptoms rather than a complete picture? In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Erica Matluck to explore what it really means to heal the whole person – body, mind, heart, and spirit. Dr. Matluck shares her Four Quadrants model of health and explains why true wellness means looking beyond the physical. We discuss how ancient wisdom (like Ayurveda’s focus on balance) meets modern life, and why your consciousness and spiritual well-being are just as crucial as your diet and exercise. (Spoiler: even hardcore materialists have their own “beliefs” they might not realize.)

Dr. Matluck also reveals the often-overlooked power of community and human connection in healing. She guides us through ways to regulate our nervous systems and truly embody wellness, so we’re not just thinking about health – we’re feeling it. We even dive into the impact of technology on our attention and well-being, and how to find balance in a hyper-connected world.
