Healthcare for Humans: Illness, Disease and the Whole Person (Part 2)

Healthcare for Humans: Illness, Disease and the Whole Person (Part 2)

Author: Healthcare NOW Radio and Podcast Network - Radio and Podcasts for the Healthcare Industry September 21, 2026 Duration: 48:15
On this episode host Raj Sundar continues their Roots of Care series by challenging the notion of clinicians as mere “fixers” and exploring what it truly means to provide healing in contexts where much of a patient's health lies outside the exam room. Drawing on polyvagal theory, somatic practices, and indigenous wisdom, they examine the importance of creating containers of safety, fostering genuine presence, and supporting patient autonomy and choice. They reflect on the pressures created by a profit-driven healthcare system, the impact of clinician self-regulation, and the value of compassion, friendship, and honoring their own needs alongside those of their patients. Through practical tools and honest discussion, they seek ways to reimagine care, cultivate resilience, and find meaning and humanity in the clinician-patient relationship.
