First steps
Taking small steps to improve your nutrition, sleep and movement are all helpful - but we understand that it can be hard sometimes to know where to even begin. This page links to possible first experiments that you can try on your own.
Addiction & Recovery
Do you know that willpower is based on when you last fueled your brain? Do you want to learn how to keep your brain fueled for better decision making and fewer cravings?
Anxiety
Does your anxiety stop you from fully engaging in your life? Does your racing heart and mind distract you from your true purpose?
Depression
Do you have depression and fatigue? Do you know how to differentiate the two?
Fatigue
Are you having a hard time getting the essentials done, much less engaging in the activities you enjoy?
Food Tools
Do you need more support to improve your food choices so you can have more energy and mental clarity?
Labs
Did your doctor do a full physical workup before diagnosing you with a mental health condition?
Movement
Did you know that moving your body improves your brain, even if it’s just for 5 minutes?
Panic Attacks
Does your anxiety sometimes overwhelm you, leading to full-blown panic attacks or total shutdown?
PTSD
Do symptoms of PTSD get in the way of you being at your best? Do you need help managing these symptoms?
Sleep
Do you suffer from sleep disturbances? Do you oversleep, wake exhausted or have a hard time getting out of bed?
