Join us for an hour of facilitated conversation about the ways food either exasperates mental health symptoms, low energy, inflammation, and brain fog or contributes to improving mood, energy, and mental clarity. As a Certified Integrative Mental Health Professional, Julie will facilitate a conversation about the undeniable connection between our gut health and brain health, practical tools to support improved symptoms, and personal antidotes from a 20-year curiosity about using Food as Medicine. Book recommendations and resources for personal application will be available.

Key takeaways:

• discuss barriers that keep us from tuning into our bodies.

• explore common culprits where food may be more menace than medicine to our gut health and mental health.

• learn about foods that can serve as medicine, particularly for mild to moderate anxiety and depression, sleep issues, and general inflammation.
