From Anxiety to Serenity: A Journey through Mental Health

Episode 19
Julie and Catherine, get candid about their mental health odysseys, and it's all in honor of Mental Health Awareness Week. As we swap tales, Catherine reveals her skirmish with anxiety, the beacon of hope medications offered, and how acupuncture, reflexology, and even the invigorating shock of cold water therapy have been cornerstones in her arsenal for mental serenity. Julie, on the other hand, provides an intriguing contrast, with her genetic predisposition to anxiety and depression. She offers insight into the unintentional yet proactive measures she's taken that fortify her neurotransmitter pathways, a testament to the subtle power of genetics in our mental health landscape.
This heart-to-heart conversation also serves up a feast of thought on how our diets directly influence our mental wellbeing — a 12-week study proving as our prime exhibit. Waking up to mornings that nurture the mind is another treasure trove we uncover, with practical nuggets like savoring the day's first coffee and the mindful avoidance of digital pitfalls. As we share our personal morning rituals, we highlight the importance of movement, meditation, and even a splash of matcha, underscoring the profound impact these have on setting the stage for a resilient day ahead. Our chorus of experiences converge on the notion that it's the simple, daily choices we make, like joining a choir, that echo loudly in the halls of our mental health. Join us as we navigate these pathways and perhaps, find your own stride in this symphony of mental wellness.
Here is the link to the food and mood study mentioned (it's actually called the Smiles trial).
