The Gut-Brain Connection Virtual Talk

Description

Did you know there are millions of nerve endings in your gut? It’s true! And all these nerve endings communicate between the gut and the brain. Many people don’t realize that the gut microbiome (all the bacteria in the digestive system) deeply influences our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. In this 1 hour training, you’ll learn more about this, along with strategies to help improve the gut-brain connection! Learning Objectives: Participants will be able to describe the basic science of how the digestive system and nervous system interact to impact emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. Participants will learn how the gut microbiome impacts the stress response in the body and how the function of the nervous system impacts the microbiome. Participants will become aware of nutritional psychology based strategies to help clients improve the function of the nervous system. Participants will learn somatic strategies to support clients in the management of anxiety and overall mental health.
