Biography: The career of Dr. Sandy Jost mirrors the progression of change in science as it has come to recognize the power of connection between body, mind, & spirit in healthcare and wellness.
With a BS in biology, MS in nutritional biochemistry, and PhD in psychology with a focus on psychoneuroimmunology, her aptitude took her initially from the research world where she published in recognized scientific journals, to commercial roles within the advancing areas of biotechnology, to her current role as educator, where she has now found her true calling.
A noted author, speaker, and educator on the body-mind connection, Jost founded ONE Health Institute to promote more medical training of the scientifically grounded integrative techniques, ONE Health Publishing to further published works that support the patient-focused complementary & alternative therapies, & serves in various consulting capacities.
Jost uses every avenue possible to spread this empowering message of the bodymind: that through “whole-body listening” we can maximize our psychological and physical health. |
