Why are even holistic practitioners sometimes complicit in fostering these harmful attitudes? Dr. Asher recalls his profound personal transformational experience at the hands of a Mayan healer. How has that affected his attitude towards healing? Could mindfulness help health professionals avert “compassion burnout”?

How will Dr. Hyman’s proposed reforms expand choice and make medicine more affordable? Click HERE for part 2.
