Bridging Eastern & Western Approaches to Mental Health with Amita Ghosh | Healthy Mind, Healthy Life Podcast

In this insightful episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Amita Ghosh, a psychotherapist and retreat leader specializing in blending Eastern philosophy with Western psychology. With over 30 years of experience, Amita shares how modern mental health approaches often focus on symptom management, whereas ancient Eastern traditions prioritize deep healing at the source.

They discuss the importance of mindfulness, breathwork, and Ayurvedic principles in mental well-being, and how these practices can be integrated into Western therapeutic methods for lasting transformation. If you’ve ever wondered whether talk therapy alone is enough or if true healing requires a more holistic approach, this conversation is for you!

✅ Science Meets Spirituality – Research now supports ancient practices like yoga and meditation as powerful tools for mental well-being.
✅ Overthinking & Anxiety – You can’t “think your way” out of stress; instead, try grounding techniques like breathwork and movement.
