About Athena Heals
Athena Heals graduated from Baylor College of Medicine in 2005 with a Master of Science degree in Physician Assistant Studies. Athena Heals believes herself to be a searcher. She has always maintained a fascination with the connection between the mind, body, and spirit, starting with a bachelor's degree in Biopsychology. However, her spiritual path has occasionally been winding and rocky. She struggled to discover the Truth, moving from Born Again Christianity to atheism, the New Age movement, and yoga under Paramahansa Yogananda. She settled on Agnosticism and focused on science and Western medicine instead. She has worked as a Physician Assistant for more than 15 years in a variety of settings, including primary care, emergency medicine, and neurosurgical critical care. She has also worked in research for ten years, including at the National Institutes of Health on neurobehavioral studies.
