PART 1: Mindfulness and Mental Health

02/23/22 • 29 min

As we close out our second year of the pandemic, we’re all feeling really burnt out and have been for quite a while. Many of you said you were looking for more mental health resources, so I wanted to zero in on this topic and see how we can come together as a community to support each other.

This will be a two-part series. This episode will cover general mental health, and next week we’ll talk more about cyclical changes in mental health.

Seed Cycling With Kate Morton

Part of holistic wellness is understanding that everything in the body is connected. Hormone balance affects many other areas of your health, and when this delicate balance is thrown off for some reason, your body’s way of telling you can be through menstrual changes, energy issues, digestive troubles, insomnia, infertility, and more.

For getting hormones back in balance, seed cycling can be a powerful way to use whole foods to improve your wellbeing. To discuss this gentle method, we are joined by Kate Morton, a Registered Dietitian with a master's degree in Human Clinical Nutrition that focuses on women's health and fertility. She’s also the founder of Funk It Wellness, a menstrual health company on a mission to end PMS, naturally.

The Lunar Body - PART 1: Mindfulness and Mental Health

Transcript

For today’s episode, I want to talk about mindfulness and mental health. Given that we’re closing out our second year of the pandemic, we’re all feeling really burnt out and have been for quite a while. I know several of you also said you were looking for more mental health resources, and I’ve noticed an uptick in people downloading my recipe guide on meal planning for stress and anxiety. So collectively, we’re that Real Houswives meme where the lady is like “I’ll tell yo
