Dr. Pardee is also the co-founder of Authentic Self, "a method, program, and experience to create your most desirable life." Her approach to cultivating health and wellness is in maximizing the "distribution of your most finite psychic resources; time, energy and attention" with the aim of achieving congruence "with all aspects of the 'self'—biological, psychological, and energetic or spiritual". Listen in as Dr. Pardee shares what drew her to study the gut microbiome and explains the crucial link between gut health and mental health, also known as the gut-brain axis (GBA). She gives some key factors to pay attention to when doing a mental or gut health "scan" on yourself and how to fill in your gaps via lifestyle and nutrition tweaks. Finally, she explains what she is most looking forward to in the realm of holistic health and wellness in the new normal and her suggestions for how other naturopathic specialists can reach more people at a time when they are most needed.   Follow Mary @dr.marypardee Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Learn more at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/467  Get 15% off 100% grass fed beef sticks from Paleovalley at https://www.paleovalley.com/everforward with code EVERFORWARD Get 10% off lions mane organic coffee from Four Sigmatic at https://www.foursigmatic.com with code EVERFORWARD
