Today, we have the pleasure of welcoming Dr. Sonny Miles, a specialist in integrative medicine and palliative care, to our podcast. Dr. Miles focuses on a holistic approach to health and comfort care, making her insights particularly valuable for our discussion today. Thank you, Dr. Miles, for joining us and sharing your expertise on lightening the load.
Dr. Miles begins by sharing her journey into palliative care, which she discovered during her residency at UCSF. Initially, she didn't see herself in this field, opting instead for hospital medicine at Indian Health Services in Northwest New Mexico. However, she quickly realized the importance of honest and open conversations about patient care. These conversations often revealed a mismatch between medical expectations and patient desires, leading her to pursue further training in palliative care. This field emphasizes early and meaningful conversations that allow patients to make informed decisions about their lives and care, focusing on quality of life and personal choices.
Dr. Miles reflects on the profound impact of these conversations, both on her patients and on her own life. Discussing what matters when time is short has made her live more intentionally, choosing what truly matters to her. She notes that while the work is challenging, it is also deeply enriching and meaningful.
Dr. Miles offers practical advice for caregivers, including a mantra from her acupuncturist: "I give you back to you, and I give me back to me." This practice helps in separating oneself from the emotional burdens of others. She also highlights the importance of mindfulness and somatic exercises, which help reconnect the physical and emotional bodies. These practices, such as craniosacral therapy, can release stored trauma and emotions, facilitating healing.
Thank you, Dr. Miles, for joining us and sharing your wisdom.
