Ep. 005: Wellness Beyond Willpower

In this episode of The Prana Clinic Talks, Alyana delves into the often-overlooked but essential topic of how the systems we live within—government, economic structures, family dynamics, and more—shape our ability to choose wellness and engage in behaviors that promote well-being. This conversation challenges the conventional focus on individual willpower and self-discipline as the sole drivers of health. Instead, Alyana invites listeners to consider how social, political, and cultural environments influence the resources, opportunities, and support available for nurturing one's wellness journey.
