Real-life tools and meal ideas to bring peace, focus, and better digestion

Unlock the power of food to calm the mind, support behavior, and nurture the body.

In this groundbreaking class, we’ll dive into the latest science behind how nutrition impacts the sensitive nervous system—especially in individuals with ADHD, autism, and anxiety. Whether you're a parent, educator, or health professional, you’ll walk away with real-life tools, meal ideas, and game-changing strategies to make every bite count.

We'll explore:

  • 🌿 How to balance blood sugar naturally to improve focus, reduce meltdowns, and support energy
  • 🧠 Nutrients that nourish the brain—and where to find them in everyday foods
  • 🥦 Sensory-friendly food ideas even picky eaters may learn to love
  • 🧃 How hydration and gut health directly affect mood, digestion, and behavior
  • 📝 Simple tracking tools that help uncover food–behavior connections
  • 🍲 Family-friendly meals and snacks designed to support calm, clarity, and connection

This class blends solid science with practical, doable strategies you can start using immediately—even in busy or overwhelmed households. You’ll leave with a toolkit full of inspiration, handouts, and food ideas that support your child’s (or your own!) sensitive system from the inside out.

Let food become a partner in healing. Join us for Feeding the Sensitive System—and discover how nutrition can create more peace, focus, and joy in everyday life.
