#128 - Zen for Surgeons (with Dr. Phillip Pierorazio)

#128 - Zen for Surgeons (with Dr. Phillip Pierorazio)

 

This week, join Louise in speaking with Dr. Phillip Pierorazio, Chief of Urology and Oncology at the University of Pennsylvania Medical System, formerly Assistant Professor of Urology and Oncology in the Brady Urological Institute at Johns Hopkins University. He is a surgeon that proudly operates with mindfulness, and he even has a podcast titled ‘Operate with Zen.’ Learn about mindfulness practices in the operating room!  Louise discusses her experiences with intention and mindfulness in a hospital setting, in addition to how both affected Archer’s healing journey. As it turns out, kissing the hands of surgeons is a mindful practice. Hear about how to instill thoughtfulness in your everyday life and also those around you. Mindfulness exists in many different forms!
