Dr. Susan Taylor is situated at the intersection of meditation and medicine. The internationally renowned teacher focuses on practical ways to integrate Western medicine with natural healing traditions. She has successfully solidified her yoga and meditation background with evidence-based research and the rigor of academia. The bestselling author is also the founder of the Center for Meditation Science.
As she tells me in our video interview, her work is to weave together all the aspects of science, yoga, meditation and nutrition so people can live whole, healthy lives. We also discuss the art and science of meditation and touch on the delicate issue of standards for yoga (and other health) therapists.
Dr. Taylor will be presenting at MISTY, the Montreal International Symposium on Therapeutic Yoga taking place on October 20 & 21.

I think meditation and medicine are a great combination to improve health with a more holistic approach. I would love to see more doctors embrace natural healing methods. I truly believe this would also help to reduce healthcare cost and medication usage.
