[GUT HEALTH] STRESSED out & struggling with DIGESTION?! This one's for you!

Published: April 30, 2021, 8 a.m.

I cannot wait to jam out on this topic with you! I love looking at the body as a WHOLE and all connected parts because that’s exactly how it is.

It’s so empowering to know that we can improve our health & quality of life with way more than just nutrition.

Our gut is directly connected to our brain via the vagus nerve. Because of that stress causes inflammation in our gut and when our gut is inflamed it causes stress.

Things that inflame our gut: sugar, gluten, dairy, stress, environmental toxins, medications (antibiotics, hormonal birth control, Advil etc). This inflammation can lead to anxiety, depression & stress.

Stress can cause constipation & bloating because of the vagus nerve connection.

 

TIPS TO IMPROVE DIGESTION & STRESS:

1. 3- 5 deep breaths before every meal to stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system

2. Being present while eating & chewing thoroughly (not working through it, multi tasking, texting while watching tv etc)

3. Not looking at your phone first thing in the morning- taking time to check in with you first.

4. Meditation

5. Saying NO & setting boundaries
