Ayurveda is translated as the “Science of Life;” Ayus = Life, and Veda = knowledge/science. These principles and treatment modalities have endured over time. In this episode of The ABMP Podcast, Angie speaks with Dr. Sheila Patel, chief medical officer for Chopra Global, about exploring each person’s Dosha type, the difference (and similarities) between yoga, meditation, and Ayurveda, how to clean up habits in the new year, and where listeners can learn their own unique Dosha type.

Dr Sheila Patel is the chief medical officer for Chopra Global and a board-certified family physician who is passionate about bringing holistic healing practices into the Western medical system. She is the lead educator for the Chopra meditation and Ayurvedic lifestyle certification programs offered through the Institute for Integrative Nutrition and leads the medical and health training at Chopra’s partner properties in Arizona and Florida.
