Embodiment with Dr. Tawni Tidwell & Dara Bramson

“The cultivation of compassion makes a better diagnostician as well as therapeutic practitioner, attuned to the needs of patient.”

In this episode, we journey into the realm of Tibetan Medicine with Dr. Tawni Tidwell and Dara Bramson. Dr. Tidwell is a trained practitioner of Tibetan Medicine, a biocultural anthropologist, and a researcher at the Center for Healthy Minds at the University of Wisconsin. Here we explore how clinicians develop embodied knowledge and skills through observation and practiced attunement of our physical senses. Dr. Tidwell also shares how the generation of compassion is a core aspect of Tibetan Medicine and paramount to the therapeutic encounter.
