Our Food and Our Mental Health Connection

 In practicing psychiatry for the past 10 years, he has learned a few important lessons. First, it is complicated. Healing can take many different paths. What works for one person may not help the next. Second, taking care of our body and mind is essential, yet often missed or ignored. We are resilient, often much more than we know. But we also tend to get in our own way. We take on too much. We do not sleep enough. Relaxation is optional. Food needs to be quick and easy. And we even forget to breathe sometimes. In our modern-day lives, all of this is happening, all the time. Since it is happening all the time, we do not even realize we are pushing so hard, nor do we identify it as a problem.Depression, anxiety, scattered thinking, and other mental health symptoms can be the consequences of failing to fix what is broken in our daily lives. These difficult mental illness symptoms can also stem from things outside of our control as well. More reason to protect our bodies, brains, and minds from the daily onslaught of stress and toxicity in modern-day life. www.thementalwellnessdiet.comhttp://www.yourlotandparcel.orgSupport the show
