How Well Are You Really? Answer These Five Questions
Your Second Brain
You may have you heard about the gut-brain connection, or heard the gut being referred to as our ‘second brain’. But what if I were to tell you that you could fundamentally change your mental health and how you feel, by treating your gut?
Sounds “out there”, doesn’t it...
But if you’ve ever “followed your gut”,
had “butterflies” in your tummy from excitement,
or a “knot” in the pit of your stomach when you’ve been worried,
a “gut-wrenching” experience,
“lost your appetite”,
found yourself “hangry” (being a moody-chops because you haven’t eaten in a while),
or had the proverbial “s**ts” with something;
then you’ve experienced the gut-brain connection first-hand, and can probably conceptualise how inextricably linked our gut, mood, and emotions are.
What is Osteopathy?
Osteopathy is a holistic health practice focusing on treatment via the structure and function of the body. It was founded in the 1800s by American physician Andrew Taylor Still. Born on the frontiers of European settlement in 1828, Still grew up amongst Indigenous Americans with a Cherokee great grandmother. He trained as a conventional medical doctor and served as a surgeon during the American Civil War but many experiences, including the failure of medicine to save the lives of three of his daughters from spinal meningitis, led to his desire to reform the medicine of his day.
Still took his inspiration from nature as well as indigenous peoples
What Does A Naturopath Actually Do?
Naturopaths are like the general practitioners of natural therapies. They study a four-year Bachelor of Health Science in Naturopathy to learn how to blend modern scientific knowledge with traditional and natural forms of medicine, making them a great starting point to access the world of holistic health care.
