I used to think that if I ate healthy food, my digestion would improve. But even though I carefully selected and prepared whole food I still dealt with digestive issues.
It almost didn’t matter what my medical professionals suggested, what different protocols I tried, I was still bloated, uncomfortable and upset after each meal.
Fast forward 10 years and I now understand very well that the state of my nervous system simply wasn’t compatible with eating and properly digesting my food.
I would often eat in a state of tension and anxiety – my heart racing, my stomach tied up in a knot, all the while worrying about the next task at work. I worked, ate and lived in fight or flight.
I would try to be mindful about the food in front of me, and pay attention to colors, textures and taste, but the anxiety was like a constant background noise. I was mindful and my body was anxious all at the same time.
During my years of training in Somatic Experiencing, a biological model for discharging stress and traumatic memory from the body, my digestion improved significantly. Not only was I able to eat a variety of foods, but food was enjoyable again.
It became a source of wellbeing and joy, it was no longer a source of pain and suffering.
Today, I work with students all over the world, who, like me, have tried everything under the sun and still struggle to have the balanced digestion that supplements, diets and professionals promise.
I created this webinar so you can learn some of the powerful somatic tools that helped me heal my digestive system and find peace with food.
“Is there something undigested in your life. It’s probably what’s in the way of healthy digestion.”
