In this uplifting and deeply human episode of The Gravity Doctors, Dr. Brennan Spiegel (Cedars-Sinai gastroenterologist and author of PULL) and Dr. Lachlan Kent (cognitive scientist and theorist of Mental Gravity) sit down with Harmon Clarke, a patient-turned-researcher whose remarkable recovery story illuminates the future of biogravitational medicine.

From septic shock and 200 days in hospital to yoga teacher, breathwork practitioner, and health researcher, Harmon’s journey embodies resilience, creativity, and the healing power of re-engaging with gravity. Together, they explore how movement, inversions, virtual reality, and breathwork can transform pain and depression into buoyancy and balance — culminating in a spontaneous “Gravity Rap” that captures the spirit of the show.
