Internal medicine physician and author, Alan Steinberg, joins me in a dialog on the role of meditation in facilitating whole person wellness and integrative, mind-body medicine.  Alan is a practicing primary care physician for Cedars-Sinai Medical Group in Beverly Hills. His first book was a non-fiction consumer’s guide, The Insider’s Guide to HMOs. It was well received and helped sway the direction health care was heading in the late nineties. His most recent book is To Be Enlightened, a novel best described as a work of visionary fiction that has received glowing reviews and provides modern illumination on Vedic philosophy and the religious roots of meditation.  Dr. Steinberg, himself, is an avid meditator and began practicing transcendental meditation in 1975.  He explores the science and philosophy behind meditation as a tool for cultivating mental, physical, and spiritual health.

Dr. Steinberg’s work can be found online at alanjsteinberg.com and he also writes a blog for PsychologyToday.com called The Meditating Mind which lends itself to examining how Eastern philosophy on meditation fits into the modern structure of Western medicine.
