IT'S TIME TO RESET YOUR SUMMER!
We can all agree that the first half of 2020 hit us like a hurricane tearing up the house! Quarantined, while balancing the parenting, teaching, working, cooking and cleaning takes its toll on our energy and our health. Our kids feel it too, so we all need to rebuild our healthy home, while continuing to boost immunity as we spend more time in public spaces.

Let’s pull out our tools for 2020 Part Two with a SUMMER FAMILY RESET!

HOW DOES IT WORK?
This 4-week group program will allow you to rebuild your wellness house brick by nutritional brick, using simple, family-friendly tools. You will also receive a 7-day menu each week, complete with recipes, and grocery lists filled with tasty, nourishing options to help you and your family feel energized and ready to face the day.

WHAT: Every week you will complete an easy nutrition quiz so you and your kids can see what you are already doing that's good and pinpoint what you can do that is even better. Parents and kids can each fill out their own assessment and compare notes.

Week 1: Foundational Nutrition Evaluation (Water, Fiber, Vegetables)
Week 2: Detailed Digestion Assessment
Week 3: Diet Optimization for Stress Relief
Week 4: Immune System and Mind Support (Minerals, Vitamins)

EVEN MORE: Food first, but often supplements help us prevent nutrient gaps and address imbalances, so you will also have the option for a personalized supplement assessment and discounts on my favorite, high quality supplements.

The womb is truly baby’s first home. Making it a safe, nourishing and non-toxic place to grow is priority one, while poor nutrition, stress and a toxic environment during preconception and pregnancy can negatively impact offspring through four generations. Let’s talk about the positive changes you can make to prepare your body for conception. Men, you are definitely invited. Preconception health is about both parents.

My Weekend Wisdom talk, Nutritional Psychiatry, is this Saturday 2/9 at 10 am in my office located at 3 Hollyhock Rd in Wilton, CT!! Hope to see you there!

What you'll learn:
A sizeable body of research in the field of nutritional psychiatry supports the role of diet in mental health, as well as its potential as a modifiable risk factor for mental illness. Think about this: there is an absolute requirement for nutritional compounds to create and activate brain chemicals but there is no such thing as an SSRI deficiency….therapeutic nutrition intervention provides a foundation for good mental health and can enhance medication efficacy. Let’s discuss the potential for omega 3’s, vitamins, diet changes and much more to change your brain! 🥦🥑🍅🥒🥕

If you are interested, there is still time to register for $20: www.nutritionalpsychiatry.eventbrite.com
