Today, my heart is filled with gratitude.
I am humbled to share that I have successfully completed my Doctorate and officially fulfilled all the academic requirements of the Hybrid Doctorate Program.
This achievement is far more than a degree. It is the culmination of years of learning from every client who trusted me, every life story that touched me, every challenge that strengthened me, and every experience that shaped my understanding of health beyond nutrition.
My research journey explored the relationship between emotional wellbeing and health. Along this path, I had the privilege of publishing a research paper on voice inhibition, throat chakra (Vishuddha), solar plexus chakra imbalances, and diabetes among Indian men, followed by my doctoral thesis focusing on voice inhibition, throat chakra (Vishuddha), and emotional wellbeing among Indian housewives. I hope these contributions encourage conversations around the emotional dimensions of health.
This milestone would never have been possible without the blessings of the Universe, my parents and family, the guidance of my mentors, the encouragement of South American International University and ATH, the unwavering support of my incredible team, and every participant who willingly became part of my research. My heartfelt gratitude to each one of you.
A very special and heartfelt thank you to my husband and my son. ❤️ Over these last few years, you both have heard more about my thesis than anyone else! Thank you for patiently listening to my endless thoughts, understanding my late nights, accepting the ever-growing pile of Swiggy and Zomato bags at home, and cheering me on even when I was tired, stressed, or completely immersed in my research. Your love, patience, and unwavering support made this journey so much easier and this achievement even more meaningful.
Most importantly, thank you to every client who walked into my clinic over the past two decades. Without realizing it, you became my greatest teachers. Your journeys gave meaning to my research and strengthened my belief that true healing begins when science and compassion walk together.
Today, I accept the title of Dr. Priti Sandeep Gaglani❤️
