Your gut is your second brain

Whenever people come to see me about depression, anxiety, emotional heaviness or that feeling of being completely flat where your drive is gone and your spark has disappeared, I always guide them to start with one thing. Their diet. I know this is where everyone rolls their eyes because it feels hard. It feels overwhelming. It means leaving the comfort zone of old eating patterns. But the truth is simple. What you put in is what you get out. Input equals output. You cannot expect a clear mind, balanced emotions and a vibrant spirit when the body is struggling to break down the very foods making you feel heavy.

Our gut is our second brain. How we feel, how we think, how we cope, how we respond and how deeply we experience depression or anxiety all begins in the gut. When the gut is inflamed, the mind is foggy. When the gut is unbalanced, the emotions become unstable. When the gut is overloaded with parasites, worms or old waste stuck in the colon, it steals your serotonin and your joy. You cannot rise when your gut is weighed down.

I am very fortunate to be surrounded by women who specialise in this. My beautiful sister Eleanor Foster NaturaLee is an expert in gut cleansing. Cleansing the gut is truly one of the most profound experiences I have ever had. When you cleanse your gut, you literally remove parasites and worms that feed on your feel good hormones.

They create cravings, fatigue, depression, anxiety and chemical imbalance. When they leave the body, something incredible happens. Your clarity returns. Your drive comes back. Your mood lifts. You feel lighter, clearer and more alive because your body is no longer fighting an internal battle you did not even know existed.

And my beautiful Louise Ann Chettoa works with live blood analysis. You sit with her, she checks your blood and explains exactly what is going on in your body. She shows you what you are eating that does not work for you and what is causing inflammation or discomfort. She also shows you what foods your unique body loves. The results are life changing. When you start eating according to what your body needs, everything shifts. Your energy increases. Your mind calms. Your mood stabilises. Your sleep improves. Your body begins to heal from the inside out.

We are all unique beings. What works for me may not work for you. There is no one size fits all. Your blood tells a story. Your gut tells a story. And when you listen to that story, you give yourself the chance to heal on a physical, emotional and spiritual level.

If you want to feel better, think clearer, move easier and lift the fog off your mind, start with your gut. Start with understanding your blood. Start with the foundation that your entire emotional world is built on. Healing is not just emotional work. Healing is physical alignment, chemical balance and giving your body the right fuel to support your heart, your mind and your soul.
