What Does it Mean to be Really Alive?

Body Literacy Podcast

Let us know what you think of this episode!

Being really alive is something much different than just not being dead. What are the qualities of a well lived life? How does one construct a life that is worth dying for? I take a walk through a nostalgic childhood and consider the current state of the world and what we value, particularly in the current medical climate. There is no arguing that we are in a state of transition, but in which direction will that shift lead us? Moving forward, how do we design a healthcare system that reveres life more than the mere absence of death? Patient empowered medicine is a consumer driven model that will have to happen at a grassroots level in order for our healthcare system to not only be financially solvent in the long haul, but it will be a movement that shifts the balance from surviving to thriving and places more value on living well rather than just not being dead.
