Dr Rashmi Schramm is a board-certified family physician and certified meditation teacher and coach.
She is the founder of Optimal Wellness, a teaching and coaching platform. She helps busy women navigate transitions with ease - by tapping into their inner power so they can confidently enjoy living more aligned, purposeful and energetic lives.
In this episode: Dr Schramm tells us about how she moved from being a "closet meditator" to being a meditation teacher and how it helped her sense of discontent and physical sickness. A friend called her out with "how dare you hide this" after hearing all the benefits of decreasing a chronic sympathetic overdrive.
We discuss how meditation has gotten a "bad rep" as a tool to help physicians with the shift of emphasis to organizational and systemic change. In actuality, it is an amazing gift "to not be a slave to drives" as we wait on longer term solutions. BOTH are important!
Pearls of Wellness Wisdom:
1. Spending only a short time daily in meditation has amazing results outside of the actual act of meditation. Listen in for all the benefits on neurotransmitters from <20 min a day.
2. Let your intuition guide you, listen to people, and stay curious.
3. Finding "Whole Health" for both the mind and body creates a synergistic effect that can be a dream come true.
