In this episode of The Mindful Living, we sit down with Dr. Roberta Garceau—dentist, certified Yoga and Ayurveda instructor, speaker, and author of the Amazon bestseller Bliss Not Burnout. Dr. Garceau shares her personal journey from burnout to balance, revealing how a medical crisis led her to embrace mindfulness as a daily practice. We discuss what mindfulness really means, why small mindful moments matter, and how to make these practices practical rather than just another task. Dr. Garceau explains how blending Western medicine with integrative wellness offers a powerful framework for managing stress and burnout. Whether you're a healthcare worker, caregiver, or just feeling stretched thin, this conversation offers grounded, accessible tools to reclaim your calm and build resilience.
