That ringing in your ears that never quite switches off. The buzzing, the fullness, the quiet worry that something in your head is not right, and the appointment that ends with “there is not much we can do.” There is another way to understand what is happening, and it is thousands of years old. Dylan sits down with Vaidya Matheus, the first Brazilian to earn a BAMS (a full university medical degree in Ayurveda) and a teacher of Ayurveda in Japan, for a wide and honest conversation that starts...
