Dr. Santhan Reddy

Happily married, and live with my wife and two dogs. My parents are doctors, and as fate would have it, I went to medical school too. Five years ago, when I finished with my graduate education, I was very interested in preventive health. I found work in the area of research and development of preventive health programs for organizations.
I have, for a long time, been overweight, and have struggled to eat right and stay active. I am prone to eating to satisfy my emotions, and find exercise burdensome on most days. I found that, quite paradoxically, my medical education had not prepared me adequately for helping myself or other people stay healthy!

The Pancamaya Model

The Pancamaya Model

During the course of my education in yoga the Pancamaya [sometimes spelt Panchamaya] model has been very useful in helping me see a holistic picture of health. This model is now one of the foundations of my work and I feel excited to share this with you.
