Confused about all the natural options out there f Confused about all the natural options out there for improving mood and which ones might actually be effective or evidence-based? Low mood isn’t just happening in our thoughts. A happy mood involves a healthy gut, good blood flow to the brain, and strong nerve cell health. These things directly affect the creation, distribution, and processing of our neurotransmitters, which directly affect our mood. Although we can support these organ systems holistically through diet, lifestyle, etc., often times we need a little extra support in one or more of these areas. Our naturopathic doctors came up with their top 8 science-based natural interventions to improve low mood based on what we see works with our clients every day. The botanicals and nutrients that made our top 8 include: 🌟SAFFRON 🌟CURCUMINOIDS 🌟VITAMIN D 🌟SAMe 🌟B12 and B9 🌟Probiotics 🌟Amino acids 🌟Fish oil Of course this list is not exhaustive and there are so many more wonderful herbs and supplements to consider, especially for treating the root causes. There are blood flow and cognition enhancers, stress-easing adaptogens, gut healers, fatigue busters, sleep supporters, etc. but we’ll save those for a future post! It is also important to TEST NOT GUESS! when it comes to several of these, and remember that no two minds or bodies are alike. Knowing which ones might serve you best and how to dose them for specific conditions should be determined with the help of a practitioner who understands your specific medical history. If you’d like to meet with one of our ND’s, we’d love to help you get your mood back on track! Click the link in bio to schedule an appointment or a free 15 min phone consult.

🌿10 ways to regulate your nervous system #8: Gr 🌿10 ways to regulate your nervous system #8: Grounding 🌿 Ever feel more at ease when you walk barefoot on grass or sand? That’s no coincidence! 🌍 Grounding, or earthing, is a simple way to reconnect with the Earth’s energy—and research is beginning to show its benefits for nervous system regulation. What We Know So Far: Emerging studies suggest grounding may help reduce inflammation, improve sleep quality, balance cortisol, and support the nervous system by shifting us into a more relaxed state. When we connect with the Earth’s electrons, it seems to help our bodies neutralize free radicals and calm the nervous system, making it easier to manage stress. 🧘‍♀️ 🌱 What the Science Is Showing: - Decreased inflammation & pain relief 🌿 - Better sleep 😴 - Reduced cortisol levels ⚖️ - A sense of calm & balance 🌸 Where We Need More Research: While early findings are encouraging, more research is needed to understand the long-term effects and specific mechanisms behind grounding. Larger scale DBPCTs (gold standard clinical trials) are also needed. At Restored Counseling & Wellness Center, we believe in the healing power of nature and the importance of supporting both the body and mind. Grounding is one of the many ways you can take small, mindful steps toward greater well-being. 🌿✨ PMID: 36528336 PMID: 31831261 PMID: 15650465 #GroundingScience #NervousSystemSupport #MindBodyWellness #Earthing #NaturalHealing

10 ways to regulate your nervous system #7: Acupre 10 ways to regulate your nervous system #7: Acupressure In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), the concept of “Shen” refers to our consciousness and represents the mental and spiritual aspects of a person. A balanced Shen is associated with clarity of thought, emotional stability, and a calm mind. Imbalances in Shen can manifest as mental health issues, such as feelings of anxiety, depression, panic, or insomnia To help regulate your nervous system and “balance your shen”, gentle acupressure for 1-2 minutes on the following points may help: - Yin Tang (great with a partner!): depression between the eyebrows, just above the bridge of the nose - Du 20 (GV 20): top of the head, aligned with the apex of the ears - Lung 1 : just below where the collar bone meets the shoulder, between the two pec muscles - Heart 8: on the palm, in the depression between the fourth and fifth metacarpals, next to the base of the pinky finger - (BONUS!) Kidney 1: sole of the foot, between the 2nd and 3rd metatarsal bones, approximately one-third of the distance between the base of the toes and the heel *Not medical advice. Always check with your medical provider before initiating treatment for any health condition*

Swipe left or check out his answers below 👇 🌟If you were an animal what would you be and why? Specifically, I want to be my dog Jax. He has the best life! But aside from that, I would want to be a dog. Dogs have a natural disposition that allows them to love unconditionally. They are forgiving and loyal. And they get excited for all the little things in life! If I could show up in life with as much enthusiasm as my dog shows up when we go for a simple walk, my life would be great! 🌟What is a song you are loving right now? I’m kind of obsessed right now with the cover versions of the Smiths song Pease, Please, Please, Let Me Get What I Want by the Autumns and The Dream Academy. 🌟What was the last book you read? Healing Developmental Trauma By Lawrence Heller Ph.D & Alina LaPierre Psy.D 🌟Who is someone that inspires you and why? My husband. He has taught me so much over the course of our relationship. I have watched him overcome so many obstacles professionally and he continues to persevere. He is really one of those people that just makes things happen. I am inspired not to give up and to continue doing what I’m doing and even when it gets tough. 🌟If you could jump on a plane right now and go anywhere, where would you go? I would fly to the Canary Islands in Spain. Continued in the comments below 👇
