Can gratitude really change your brain, protect your heart, and anchor your faith in the middle of real-life storms?
In this episode of Vital Voices, we explore “The Science and Spirituality of Gratitude” with Dr. Paige Burrows—physician turned Certified Lifestyle Medicine Educator, Coach, and founder of WellSpring Lifestyle Group.
Together we unpack the subject of gratitude—what it is and isn't , what the latest studies are saying and how to harness the power of gratitude for our mental and physical and spiritual health.
🔍 In this episode, we explore:
- How gratitude affects the brain, heart, immune system, sleep, and stress levels
- Why gratitude is more than “toxic positivity” and how to practice it honestly in seasons of pain
- The overlap between biblical commands (“give thanks in all circumstances”) and evidence-based psychology
- Practical, realistic ways to build a gratitude routine into a busy life in the Caribbean and beyond
- How gratitude can transform not just your mood, but your relationships, resilience, and walk with God
Whether you’re a Christian longing for deeper spiritual practices, a wellness-minded listener, or someone simply trying to cope with anxiety and overwhelm, this conversation will help you see gratitude as more than a feeling—it’s a tool, a discipline, and a path to healing.
🙏 Question for you:

Episode 33 - From Pills to Pillars ft. Dr. Paige Burrows
From Pills to Pillars: One Physician's Journey into Lifestyle as Medicine
This week on Vital Voices, we invite you into a deeply personal and profoundly hopeful conversation. Join host Alexis Burrows as he sits down with his wife, Dr. Paige Burrows— Physician turned certified lifestyle medicine educator, coach, entrepreneur & founder of WellSpring Lifestyle Group and strong advocate for whole person health—for an episode that goes beyond clinical insight and into the heart of healing.
After a harrowing battle with long COVID that left her grappling with chronic fatigue, neurological symptoms, and despair, Dr. Burrows found herself at a crossroads. Through prayer, fasting lifestyle medicine principles, and mindbody practices she uncovered a new path, one where lifestyle became the medicine.
Together, we explore her journey from the hospital bed to holistic healing, from confusion to clarity, and from a life reliant on pills to one anchored by pillars of whole-person wellness.
This episode is for anyone who has ever felt hopeless, isolated by or stuck in illness. Whether you’re a patient, a caregiver, or a healthcare professional, you’ll walk away with both insight and inspiration.
Topics include:
• The realities of living with long COVID
• Whole food plant predominant nutrition and fasting for healing
• The mind-body-spirit connection in chronic disease recovery
• How lifestyle medicine complements traditional care
• Advice for caregivers and medical professionals
Healing isn’t linear—but it is possible. Tune in and be reminded that with faith, intentional living, and a commitment to root-cause wellness, restoration is within reach.
