I am an academic hospitalist in Internal medicine at WellSpan York Hospital, Pennsylvania, where I primarily focus on educating and mentoring residents. In addition, I have been practicing heartfulness meditation for over 22 years and have conducted research studies on medical benefits of heartfulness practice. I feel it has offered me a great benefit in maintaining a state of inner calmness and tranquility while going through the ups and downs of life. Almost everyone’s life is busy, and I too have a fair share of it! I am married. I have two young kids whose activities, school work, and play keep me busy.

I feel that the field of medicine is a great science. Medical advances have helped a lot of patients with cancer. While it is important to advance in this field, I also feel that one’s own inner resources are very important. An appropriate inner environment is necessary to facilitate a better healing process. I feel meditation plays an important role in achieving this inner conducive state of mind. Heartfulness meditation is a simple heart-based meditation practice, offered free of cost to anyone who is willing to try it. I strongly recommend this for anyone looking for a meditation practice. Its benefits are multifarious.
