Help us expand our Muslim media project here: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/membershipHow can we manage life’s hardships and pain, and does our modern way of living explain why so many people find themselves in therapy today? Dr Rania Awaad is the Co-Founder and President of Maristan and a Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at Stanford University. She draws on both Islamic tradition and medical science to revive a legacy of holistic healing in which the psyche is understood through the ruh, qalb and nafs, offering a spiritually grounded alternative to Western approaches that often pathologise struggle while overlooking faith and growth.You can find Dr Rania Awaad here:X: https://x.com/drraniaawaadIG: https://www.instagram.com/dr.raniaawaadMaristan Project: https://maristan.org/Become a member here:https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/membershipOr give your one-off donation here:https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/donateListen to the audio version of the podcast:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7vXiAjVFnhNI3T9Gkw636aApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-thinking-muslim/id1471798762Purchase our Thinking Muslim mug: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/merchFind us on:X: https://x.com/thinking_muslimLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-thinking-muslim/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/The-Thinking-Muslim-Podcast-105790781361490Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thinkingmuslimpodcast/Telegram: https://t.me/thinkingmuslimBlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/thinkingmuslim.bsky.socialThreads: https://www.threads.com/@thinkingmuslimpodcastFind Muhammad Jalal here:X: https://twitter.com/jalalaynInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jalalayns/Sign up to Muhammad Jalal's newsletter: https://jalalayn.substack.comWebsite Archive: https://www.thinkingmuslim.comDisclaimer:The views expressed in this video are those of the individual speaker(s) and do not represent the views of the host, producers, platform, or any affiliated organisation.
