How does gut health impact mood?

It's no secret that our gut health can have a big impact on our physical health. But did you know that it can also affect our mental health? In fact, there's a growing body of evidence to suggest that gut health is closely linked to our mood and anxiety levels.

So how does it work? Well, the gut is home to a trillions of bacteria, known as the microbiome. This microbiome is important for several reasons, including helping to break down food and extract nutrients, producing vitamins and hormones, and protecting us from infection.

Recent research has shown that the microbiome can also influence the way we think and feel. For example, one study found that anxiety levels were significantly reduced in people who took probiotics (a type of supplement that contains live bacteria) for eight weeks. Another study found that people with depression had different types of bacteria in their gut than those without depression.

It's no secret that the gut and the brain are connected. After all, they're both responsible for keeping the body running smoothly. In fact, studies have shown that there is a strong connection between gut health and mental well-being. For instance, anxiety and depression have both been linked to imbalances in the gut microbiome. Additionally, research has shown that mood and emotion are directly influenced by the gut-brain axis. By addressing any imbalances and improving your gut health, you may be able to improve your mental health as well.

So what does this all mean? The research is continuing to grow, but the evidence is mounting that gut health is crucial for mental health. So if you're feeling down or anxious, it might be worth paying attention to your gut. After all, it could be the key to improving your mood.

If you are struggling with MOOD, jump over HERE to grab your HAPPY MIND Pack to help target the Gut-Brain Axis and improve your mood. And, as always, reach out with questions or concerns or success stories! I would love to hear from you. 

Helping you #liveyourbestlife!

Meet Judith C. Labert

 
Hello! Welcome
Thanks so much for coming by! 

I used to be a body builder and gym-nut- But the "perfect storm" of events ended up disrupting my physical, mental and emotional health, creating imbalanced hormones, weight gain and a loss of self. I have struggled with Chronic Fatigue and negative emotions, such as self-loathing. Through my own journey, coupled with my professional training, I have learned many tools like the power of using Conscious Language and have expanded my knowledge about how emotions and language impact the body, how our environment contributes to our health and the body's well being, and how mindset matters! As I have improved my health and regained my sense of self, I am now on a mission! In this world, with all the emotional (and physical!) pains, I commit myself to helping other's learn and grow to be better, healthier versions of themselves. I am always learning about how to live a plant based, non toxic, chemical free life so that we can live out best lives!!

 As a professional, I am a licensed Mental Health/Art Therapist and Certified Life Coach. I work with a lot of folks who experience various degrees of trauma and anxiety. I value the amazing tools that I have learned-and continue to learn- that are effective in helping the clients I serve! I am an art therapist and I use aroma and apply a variety of integrative approaches in a holistic model with all my clients. I am a Christian practitioner and believe in the power of faith and in the capabilities of the amazing bodies we live in!

 
In my therapy practice, I specialize in trauma and addiction, as well as being a Registered Art Therapist. I work with kids of all ages, including adults! I Love using various products and techniques to support my system within my own health and wellness journey and am passionate about incorporating a holistic approach with my clients to better support them in their journey.


As a holistic practitioner, a Certified Mental Health Integrative Medicine Provider and Certified Mental Wellness Coach, I often suggest a variety of product recommendations for my friends, family and clients.  This education provides another tool to help in my supporting you to Live Your Best Life... 
I offer an intro health assessment to those looking for answers to help decide what is the best direction and fit for your needs. I am a Certified Aroma Freedom PractitionerCertified Emotion and Body Code Practitioner and a Certified Oola Life Coach and Mental Wellness Coach- so no matter what your struggle is, I have tools that can help you set goals, support wellness, build your faith and help you find purpose in your life! 

Personally....
I am still healing (it is an on-going journey of health) but am thriving more each day that passes. I am now an International Best Selling Author, as some of my story was published in a book collaboration that was published October 2021! I am a mom of two girls and a wife, a fitness lover and beach explorer. I enjoy a variety of music and love road trips. I wear Chacos and tank tops every day possible! I grew up in Wyoming but love living in the milder climate of Southern Oregon. I lam happy in warm weather and at the beach. I support my husband in his Art and Automotive Restoration business and in his hobby of restoring a '57 Oldsmobile. We are looking forward to taking it on a cross country trip in it when it is complete! We both cherish family and enjoy sharing new experiences together.

 I am excited for you to join me on this journey!
xoxo ~Judith
