Where my V’s at? From the front to back? You still with me?

It’s time for Part 2 as we walk the steps toward changing our diet…… in order to change our mind.

We’re back with Dr. Lauryn, rounding out our two-part series dedicated to gut health, rediscovering the brain / body connection and leaning into better micro-decision-making that will ultimately lead to a longer, stronger, healthier life.

Last episode, Dr. Lauryn shared her story, highlighting the correlation between your relationship with yourself and your perception of the world. Dr Lauryn’s story is a very raw and beautiful story about our experiences in life, and through the goodness of humanity and the sheer will of the human spirit (plus concentrated, consistent effort) you can regain control and step into a far more powerful future.

In this episode, Dr. Lauryn is taking us straight into action, where we’re doing less talking (ish) and getting more clear on methods that are effective in resetting our brain and gut, and putting ourselves in the life of Dr. Lauryn’s protocol. The 3-step formula is simple in conversation, but in execution, it's multi-layered and purposely progressive so that you are able to integrate a new way of thinking and thriving that will sustain you for the entirety of your lifespan.

Get to know Lauryn's recommended system-- one that allows your body to reward itself, reset the stress cycle, and to give thanks to the world you are creating around you through helpful thoughts, positive environmental responses and a nutrient-dense lifestyle supporting you and the world around you to win everyday.

Today, we demonstrate further that we have no chill and many questions.

Specifically about gut health, the brain, and how these 2 things come together to determine the way we perceive the world and how we function inside of it.

Welcome to Part 1 of our Gut Health Series, led by beloved functional medicine practitioner, Dr. Lauryn Lax.

A Doctor of Occupational Therapy, Clinical Nutritionist and Functional Medical Practitioner with more than 20 years of experience, Dr. Lauryn survived a near-death experience after a years long disconnect between brain and gut, ultimately controlling her perception of self, her environment and how she fed the mechanism that drove her experience with the world around her.

Her story, featured on Good Morning America and CBS Evening News, involves a YMCA parking lot, a handful of strangers and divine timing that led her to a hospital minutes before her heart stopped.

This transformational event led her to dedicate her life to educating others on gut health, rediscovering the brain / body connection and developing a formula for better micro-decision-making and lifestyle changes to ensure a longer, stronger, healthier lifespan.

Join us for Part 1 of our series, where we hear her story, learn more about the brain-gut connection and take away meaningful reasoning behind why this matters now and well into our future.
