Get power over anxiety, mood, voices, learning and memory issues, addiction, OCD, paranoia, etc. We look at root causes and triggers, biotypes, nutrients and herbs, allergies and sensitivities, metals and toxins, environment and epigenetics. We're talking nutritional psychiatry, integrative psychiatry, and functional medicine. Come join us for knowledge, stories, laughter, and serious talk about the brain: how it works, how it is nourished and cared for, and how mental health evolves.
