Send us a text
This week I had the pleasure of talking to nutritional therapist Kirsten Chick.
Not only is Kirsten a nutritional therapist, She's a public speaker, educator, podcast host of not one but TWO podcasts and author of "Nutrition brought to life". In other words, she's incredibly knowledgable about all things food related.
We spent a solid hour talking about the effects of stress, and diet, on the human body.
We talk about the physical effects of stress on the human body, including on digestion and weightmanagement.
Whether food can cause an increase in the levels of stress.
Which foods help with stress-management and which nutrients to look out for, and what they do.
The benefit of taking 10-15 minutes screenbreaks, and other time-outs, every day.
Why eating whilst working is not the same as eating whilst stepping away from the computer.
The benefit of eating a bit more slowly.
And many, MANY other things.
It's a fascinating chat with tonnes of wisdom and advice for all of us but especially powerful for women with young children. After all, stress-management can have such a huge impact on the health and happiness of you, and those around you, and Kirsten gives you a LOT of "easy to follow and implement" bits of information.
You can find Kirsten's "Nutrition brought to life" on Amazon and Waterstone's.
