According to Board Certified pulmonologist, critical care physician, and co-chair of AMI’s Department of Medical Education, Anthony Santilli MD, “My personal experience is that physicians today are subjected to an unprecedented number of significant stressors, including overwork, cumbersome regulation, electronic medical records and coding requirements, medical liability, on-call issues, lack of sleep, politics, and frustrations with the reimbursement structure. By attending this conference and learning to practice Yoga Science as Mind/Body Medicine, healthcare professionals can definitely improve their job satisfaction and work/life balance, while reducing and preventing burnout symptoms of anger, depression, anxiety and exhaustion.”
The entire “Heart and Science of Yoga” CME curriculum is a transformative learning experience. It is dedicated to providing quality, comprehensive and evidence-based education. Other topics this year will include an encyclopedic overview and instruction on AMI Meditation, Epigenetics, diaphragmatic breathing, mantra science, yoga psychology, mind function optimization, Food as Medicine, Ayurveda, easy-gentle yoga, lymph system detoxification and detailed instruction on how to employ knowledge of the Chakra System as a practical and reliable diagnostic tool.
The dedication, enthusiasm, and teaching methodology of the entire AMI faculty create a dynamic and interactive course for their students.
