Operate with Zen
While incredibly rewarding and honored vocations, careers in medicine and surgery are fraught with stress, burnout and challenges in work-life balance. OWZ is intended to open dialogue about a mindful approach to surgery - to create a space where physicians and surgeons can enhance their life's work and life experience with a focus on presence, purpose and practical skills. OWZ combines didactic-like monologues to provide baseline information and available scientific data on practical topics like time management, sleep hygiene and burnout; as well as interviews with surgeons and experts to share what works and doesn't work in their daily routines.

Many of our guests on Operate with Zen are established in their careers and working to figure out a more mindful, healthy approach to medicine and surgery. Jake Taylor, MD (Twitter: @doctorjakeuro) is a Chief Resident at NYU and while still developing in his surgical career, has well established routines and principles of mindfulness. A great podcast for listeners at all levels of surgical and mindfulness expertise, but especially poignant for those in training. (Music Credit: Sunshine, Simon Jomphe Lepine.)
