This week, Joy sits down with Dr. Ellen Vora, a holistic psychiatrist, acupuncturist, and yoga instructor. Dr. Vora uses a functional medicine approach to mental health, focusing on the whole person and addressing bodily imbalances at their source. She holds a B.A. from Yale University and an M.D. from Columbia University, and she is board-certified in psychiatry and integrative holistic medicine. Dr. Vora is also the author of the bestseller *The Anatomy of Anxiety*, and she’s here to share her evidence-based insights into holistic mental health.
In this episode, Dr. Vora explores the root causes of anxiety and shares a range of holistic tools she employs to aid her patients. Her method involves considering the entire person, including dietary and lifestyle strategies, to genuinely heal rather than merely relieve symptoms. She explains the distinction between “true” and “false” anxiety and how empowering it can be to learn that these “false” anxieties are relatively straightforward to address using her recommendations.
If you find anxiety a challenge, you won’t want to miss Dr. Vora’s calm and practical approach to healing. This episode is filled with practical steps that you can start applying immediately to support your body and relax your nervous system. Grab a pen and paper, because you’ll want to note down her valuable advice!
