How to Break the Bonds of Labels, Norms, and Conditioning with Dr. Asha Rani

Words of Love with Dr Dwayne

Feeling a bit trapped by your circumstances, even if you look like you’re living the dream? No matter, you can always choose to break out of your conditioning to discover who you really are.

At 40 years old, Dr. Asha Rani looked like she was living her best life. She had the marriage, the kids, the degrees, and the successful dental career. What she didn’t have was a sense of who she was or the direction she wanted her life to go in.

So Dr. Rani embraced the idea of no longer doing the expected. She took the journey to do the inner work, and in the process, she’s taken patient care beyond simple diagnosis and treatment. Now, as a Reiki practitioner and advocate of conscious dental implant training, she demonstrates a wellness-minded approach to dentistry and healing.

In this episode of the Words of Love podcast, you’ll learn about how Dr. Rani broke away from societal norms and cultural conditioning as the child of Indian immigrants. She’ll also teach you about Reiki and how she uses it in her practice, why spirituality is a different kind of science, and how melding science with spiritual practices empowers people to walk in their truth.
