The Slow Medicine Shift: Why Your Brain and Body Need More Than a Quick Fix- Episode 102
We just celebrated 100 episodes of The Neuro Collective Podcast and what better way to mark the milestone than by diving into a topic that could change the way you see healing forever: slow medicine.
In today’s conversation, Dr. Michael and May Bagnell unpack what slow medicine really means and why your brain and body need more than a quick fix. In a world obsessed with instant results, they share why lasting recovery requires patience, curiosity, and connection.
Together, we explore:
- What slow medicine is—and what it is not
- Why quick fixes can often lead to more frustration than freedom
- The role of patient-centered care and true doctoring
- How the brain rewires through time, training, and neuroplasticity
- The vital role patients play in their own healing journey
- Practical takeaways you can apply today for sustainable progress
This episode is not just about healthcare—it’s about re-learning the art of healing. If you’ve ever felt rushed, unheard, or frustrated in your health journey, this conversation will give you hope and a roadmap for creating meaningful, sustainable change.
Because healing isn’t about speed. It’s about direction.
And as always, remember: You can heal. And we can help.
