Nutritional
Nutrition is often overlooked as a factor in mental/emotional wellness. Especially in the case of trauma history, stress or illness, our brains do much better with good food, including protein, at frequent intervals. These are some great resources presented with compassion.
Kristen Allott, ND points out the importance of protein for trauma survivors and various mental health struggles such as depression. Her approach can help with chronic pain, energy level and much more. She provides an understanding of what is happening physiologically in the body. You’ll find many tips and resource material on Dr. Allott’s website.
