We recently welcomed Jodie Pappas, Certified Holistic Nutritionist, to our clinic for her workshop on the Connection between the GUT, Mind, & Body! We learned A LOT! Jodie offers a wealth of information and sent us on our way with greater insights and understanding about the powerful interplay between our Gut Health, Mental Health, and Physical Health.

If you feel like you’ve been talking about your issues forever but not getting any further ahead to relieve anxiety, depression or the challenges you’re facing over and over again, EMDR is an excellent alternative to traditional talk therapy.

In some of the hardest times of my life, I’ve cultivated a mantra that comforted me and supported me through fears and doubts. Some of my favourites include: “I am not the first person and I won’t be the last to go through this” (this one helps to feel less alone in our struggles). With a loved one who was fighting some health concerns, we came up with this together: “I am healthy. I am strong. I am ok”. “This too shall pass”, is a commonly used one.
