It's been a hot minute since I released a newsletter, but I girded my loins and got it done! It has links to FREE recovery resources for adolescents and some non-pain neuroplastic symptoms (e.g. dizziness, tinnitus, etc). Enjoy! 🤓

Here's a thought: Stress does NOT cause physical symptoms.

I had the great privilege of joining Ed Jones (The Holistic Navigator) on his Nutrition World podcast where we discussed the complexities of pain:
🧐 How chronic pain is similar to & different from acute pain.
🤓 The neuroscience of how pain perpetuates & gets amplified.

Would love to hear what you think!
