Can’t Stop Overthinking? 9 Easy Ways To Drop Into Your Body For Instant Relief

Healthy Mindframe / By

  I’m writing this article after having the total pleasure of my adult daughter visiting for a night, in the morning we went out for breakfast and a pedicure before she had to leave — what a rare treat and I soaked up every second of it. It wasn’t until we finished our meal and were heading over to give our feet some TLC (read here if you want a medical excuse to get a pedicure!) that I realized exactly why I soaked it up more than usual — I did not have my cell phone with me at all.

Improve Your Mental Health With Your Very Next Meal (+ 5 More Things You Can Do Today To Feel Relief)

Healthy Mindframe, Medical Reports / By

    As someone who has struggled with anxiety her entire life, I am very interested to read up on medical studies exploring ways that our diet impacts our mental health (I’ve blogged for you in the past right here about foods that increase anxiety, and yep, gluten was on that list!) because this also provides natural, holistic ways to help reduce anxiety and depression — by simply reducing or eliminating gluten. That’s just one example of how our mental health can be shaped by the foods we choose to eat.  Last week I told you how a keto diet

Using Grounding To Treat Anxiety … What The Medical Literature Says

Grounding, Healthy Mindframe / By

    I’ve been anxious my entire life.  I can’t remember a day when I did not wake up with a huge knot in my stomach that felt like death was gripping my solar plexus and sneering up at me. Unfortunately the medical literature is pretty clear — anxiety has major health effects, but it’s equally clear that those deleterious health effects are actually reversible.  Meaning, if you suffer from anxiety, it’s very worth addressing, not just for the relief on a daily basis but also for the longevity benefits. Today, as someone who very much knows the felt sense

    Did you know that gluten is a neuro-irritant — meaning it causes inflammation in the brain and has been linked to cognitive decline, even directly to dementia?  I wrote this article for you back in 2014 to help explain how dementia could be considered a gluten-induced condition. More recent evidence suggests that not only does the brain inflammation that gluten causes affect your brain, it might also be affecting your mental health, including causing or worsening mood disorders like depression and anxiety. As someone who has struggled with anxiety her entire life, I am very interested to read

Healthy Mindframe, Medical Reports / By

        Because we are headed into cooler months, most of us will be spending more time indoors.  When we are inside for most of the day, it affects our levels of stress and our mental health.  In fact, job stress may cause as many as one out of every seven new cases of depression, anxiety and other common mental disorders, suggests a study  published in Lancet Psychiatry. Researchers looked at over 6,800 participants, ranking job strain at age 45 with risk of mental illness at age 50. The results were astounding. Having a job that is highly

    A few years ago I became a Death Doula. You would think as a physician we would be taught in detail about the death and dying process in medical school, but we weren’t. Not at all. We were taught how to pronounce someone dead, how to preform advanced life support to try to stave off death, how to sign a death certificate… but never about the intricacies of it: what the body feels and experiences as the soul prepares to leave it, what the dying process looks like, what order the organ systems shut down in and how
