Hi! I’m Heather Wise,
author of the celebrated book, A Gut Feeling published by academic powerhouse Rowman & Littlefield, and I work to healing the Gut Brain - without prescription diets or food restrictions.
People often turn to counting calories, strict diet plans, and whole host of medical interventions when they are trying to manage their:
Emotional and Mental Health
Digestive health
metabolic conditions
inflammation & Pain
weight
but we don’t have to do all that if we understand our microbiome, our “Second Brain” because of the millions of nerves and neurons that run between our gut and brain !
Oh, and did you know…
Your unique Gut Brain determines:
your level of feel good chemicals
your mental health
inflammation and physical pain
your metabolism (weight)
your cravings and taste buds (YUP)
way more than you thought possible 🤓
Your Gut Brain is just as powerful as your DNA! And, you have the power to change it!
First off…what exactly is our Gut Brain?
Just like a garden, there is an entire ecosystem of microbes in your body that thrives when your internal environment has the right “climate” and “nutrients”.
when your internal ecosystem is ideal…
Your gut microbes work their magic to absorb all the nutrients from your food, support your immune system, and produce all the feel good chemicals like Serotonin and GABA that give us that happy, relaxed yet mentally ”on” buzzed feeling.
My program Supports our Gut Brain health from two angles:
Eating the most important nutrients to support the health of your Gut Brain Axis
Mind-body practices to tap into our body’s cues to master your body’s internal climate
Here’s why I care.
Did you know 90% of the feel-good chemical serotonin is produced in your gut?
So when we get our gut Brain right, our mood follows.
Did you know that your metabolic rate is set primarily by your microbiome?
So when we get our Gut brain right, our weight stabilizes
Pain and inflammation are are deeply affected by the health of our gut brain.
