About this Event

What if your digestion isn’t just about food — but about stress?

In this 90-minute workshop, we’ll explore what stress actually does inside your body, how your gut and brain are deeply connected, and how building nervous system resilience can improve digestion — without giving up your favorite foods.

This is not about restriction.It’s about regulation.

When your body feels safe, digestion works better.



What We’ll Cover
  • What stress really is (physiologically — not just emotionally)
  • How the gut and brain communicate
  • Why stress can trigger bloating, reflux, constipation, or urgency
  • Simple tools to build resilience and support digestive health

Workshop Structure (90 Minutes)

20–25 minutes – Gentle Yoga PracticeHeart-opening movement, seated twists, belly breathing, and slow transitions to activate the “rest and digest” response and prepare your body to receive information.

45–55 minutes – Education, Discussion & Q&AClear, practical teaching on the gut–brain axis and how to improve digestion by strengthening nervous system resilience.
