Holistic mental health, what is that? The mind is more complex can we can imagine, vast in its capacity. Truly there is a time and a place for meds but we can address anxiety, depression, stress, life naturally and bring much relief. Acupuncture alone has been proven to release endorphins, serotonin, oxytocin, ect. Things to consider with mental health...

How much inflammation/heat is there in the body? Reducing inflammation literally calms the body and brings you back to a balanced state. Chinese Medicine looks at someone with too much heat in their body causing things like restlessness, irritability, palpitations, insomnia, etc.

Is your body stuck in fight or flight? Teaching your body it’s okay to relax and tap into your healing parasympathetic system is beyond important.

Are you blood deficient? In Chinese Medicine we look at various imbalances in the body, one is blood deficiency. I often see this in women, having blood deficiency leads to not feeling grounded or rooted with symptoms like foggy head, fatigue, depression, lightheadedness, etc.

Imbalances very greatly from person to person, with many more indications. Don’t forget there is no one size fits all but through dietary shifts, herbs/supplements to calm the body and acupuncture to bring your body in balance you can get back to you ️ Much love ~ Katie
