MindBody Studies Managing Editor, LeTonia Jones, interviews neurologist and Ayurvedic practitioner Dr. Kulreet Chaudhary about the Ayurvedic practice of sound medicine. During this interview, Dr. Chaudhary discusses the paradox that occurs when mind and body are defined as separate entities. She also reflects on the ancient ways in which trauma has been conceptualized and how sound medicine can be used to process it through subtle vibrations. Finally, Jones and Chaudhary explore the ways in which sound medicine amplifies social justice community care, and integrates collective consciousness with individual healing.
