This one stretches the mind in the best way. What if gravity is the most overlooked force in modern medicine?
In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Brennan Spiegel, Professor of Medicine and Public Health, Director of Health Services Research at Cedars-Sinai, and Director of the Cedars-Sinai Center for Virtual Medicine and Health System Transformation. We explore bio-gravitational medicine, a groundbreaking framework connecting physics, perception, virtual reality, and human physiology.
We discuss:
- How humans evolved to regulate against and stand up to gravity
- The Reality Paradox and simulation theory in healthcare
- How virtual reality (VR) can literally "lift" your state of being
- Why artificial environments may disrupt mind-body balance
- Why virtual experiences can create real biological change
- How VR may restore biophilia and reconnect us with our biological origins
- Why even our perception of gravity influences HRV, cortisol, and mental health
- What healthcare leaders must consider when designing digital health platforms
As digital health accelerates, this conversation challenges us to rethink how technology interacts with human biology. Can simulation realign us with our evolutionary roots?
If you’re a healthcare executive, clinician, or digital health innovator, this episode will expand how you think about mind-body medicine and the future of healing.
Stay tuned for more conversations at the intersection of healthcare innovation, AI, leadership, and patient-centered care.
