Divya Navani, MD, is an internist with a passion for physician health. She works as a consultant and a team builder for physicians, supporting physicians to grow personally and professionally through life and its stresses. She has created an 8-week program called Beating Burnout MD. She stresses the importance of sleep, stress management, and relationships, both personal and professional, in helping physicians beat burnout. 

Divya has been deeply touched by the suffering of her patients over her 25-plus-year career as an internist. On the personal front, she was devastated when her mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease at the young age of 58. All this sent her barrelling down the path of "searching for health." She brings back her deeply researched and practically lived perspective on health to her colleagues.
She understands that health occurs at all levels and is lost at all levels--- physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, and energetic. She supports physicians in reclaiming their health on all these levels.

"You are born with your highest and natural blueprint of health. It is always there. No matter what has happened or where you are now, this blueprint is always accessible. Health is always accessible. Health is always within reach. Health is always there."
