What is Mental Wellness?
*Hint: It's EVERYTHING.
BIOME | BRAIN | BODY | SPIRIT
Healthy Gut =
Healthy Mind
Did you know that we have three brains? Gut feelings and following your heart are more than just turns of phrase - science has discovered that the microbes in our gut and the electrical signals from our heart are read by the brain and can dramatically influence our mood and behavior as well as our mental and physical health. This is called the Gut-Brain Axis.
Research from the last 20 years has revealed that our gut microbiome includes more than 100 trillion bacterial cells - outnumbering human cells by 10-to-1 (more microbes in the human body than stars in the Milky Way!) Those gut microbes produces more serotonin and dopamine than the brain itself! These are the compounds that directly manipulate how we feel. In other words, optimizing the Gut-Brain Axis is the foundation of our mental wellness.
Life gets hectic, putting your health second can seem natural. But when stress is at its peak, self-care is more important than ever. This is why we hope you let us guide you on this journey.
It’s up to you to take charge of your wellness. Even small changes add up to a BIG difference.
