Affordable Brain Food Education

Picture Image: Magic Mineral Broth from Rebecca Katz
I continue to find it amazing how food gives rise to brain health: energy, happiness, sexual zing, sleep.

A big part of the puzzle is access. What are some free or low-cost ways to find out about the abundance of information on food that is both pleasurable and brain-friendly?

Classes, talks, newsletters, blogs, and Facebook pages are great ways to get information, if you have reputable sources. Here are a couple of ideas.

Lifestyle Medicine:
Lessons from both Eastern & Western medicine: Herbs, Foods & Teas to create your healthiest self.
In this eight-week class at AIMC in Berkeley starting Saturday May 14, learn what Oriental Medicine and Western Medicine teach about seasonal eating, super foods, and herbs and teas that heal.

I enjoy following my Food as Medicine conference teacher Rebecca Katz, author of the Healthy Mind cookbook. You can sign up on her website for her newsletter, recipes, and upcoming online class. Here's a great recipe for a completely vegetarian mineral broth.

    Author

    Reba Connell teaches Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and Mindful Eating classes in the Rockridge neighborhood of Oakland.

    She has completed several levels of study in teaching Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction, including a professional training program under the direction of Dr. Saki Santorelli and Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn and a training in teaching Mindful Eating, through UCSD.

    She is deeply engaged with science-based and traditional approaches to healing through food and self-care. Her trainings include Food As Medicine; The Gut Brain; and Preventing and Managing Chronic Inflammation: Special Focus: Nutritional Interventions.  She has been practicing meditation and yoga since 1999.

    Finding mindfulness, movement, and food to make big differences in her own healing from chronic pain, she feels called to share what she is learning with others and to help people make their own discoveries. She is committed to a feminist approach that honors all body shapes and sizes while collaborating in radiant wellness.
