Ep 45: Mind Body Soul Success with Holistic Psychiatrist Dr. Ellen Vora

Hear the story of Dr. Ellen Vora and how her sense of purpose as a holistic psychiatrist grew gradually and was sparked by a crystal card reading in Bali that helped unveil her gifts. This conversation is rich with powerful insights about the current state of medical care and how true deep healing can be achieved with a holistic approach that aims to dust off our intuition. When Dr. Ellen was sick in med-school and residency she herself was given pills that caused more imbalance. She became disenchanted by the medical system that rarely asked “why” certain ailments came to be in the human body, and knew instinctively that the drug centric approach of modern medicine was not her calling…she came to her own realization that she could trust what she was naturally drawn to to find success and service to humanity. She says, makes you you is not a liability but rather is what you’re here to uniquely offer. Dr. Ellen teaches us about how to navigate the hidden harms of modern life and how labeling ourselves through a diagnosis can be disempowering. You’ll discover how a holistic approach is a powerful gift we can learn to give ourselves to break the shackles of whatever is holding us back in mind and body.
