Hello!
I'm Dr. Kristin Reihman, and I am on a mission to share simple, natural, holistic tools you can use to transform your health, and the health of your entire family. I do this through teaching, coaching, writing, and on my podcast, because I believe you have a right to high quality information which will empower you to make informed decisions about your own health.
BUT KNOWLEDGE & EMPOWERMENT ISN'T ALWAYS ENOUGH.
To actually implement tools for wellness, you have to have adequate energy, motivation, and focus. Above all, your brain has to be organized and functioning well enough for you to learn new information, to make values-based decisions on what to do, and to prioritize your actions. And let's face it: most brains today are struggling just to manage a grocery list!
I know this all too well. I see it in my practice, where I work every day with brain-challenged people. They come to me with Lyme, with mold, with long-COVID, with autoimmune issues, and with all sorts of other brain-impacting conditions. But I also know what a suboptimally functioning brain looks like first hand, because at times, my own brain didn't work....
The first was in 2011, when I was bitten by a deer tick. I was quickly bed-bound with excruciating pain, brain fog, and fatigue. During my Lyme journey, I could barely remember my phone number, let alone follow a complicated regimen of medications, herbs, and therapies. Luckily, I got all of that back (and more) using the tools I outline in my book, Life After Lyme.
Less than a decade after recovering from Lyme, I had an unexpected stroke during elective surgery. Thanks to what I already knew from working as the Medical Director of The Family Hope Center, an institution devoted to helping parents optimize their childrens' brains, I was able to recover my brain from that, as well.
So yeah, I know what it's like to have a brain that doesn't work the way I need it to.
But I also know how to get it back. And in this course, I outline and explain all the things that I did--and why they worked--to heal any brain, so you have the tools to do the same.
And if your brain is still working perfectly, this course is still for you! Because spoiler alert, everything I did to help my brain heal can be used to prevent cognitive decline, simply, naturally, and permanently. I can't wait to share what I know about how to optimize brain health...so you, too, can get back to living your amazing life, with a brain that does everything you need it to do.
If you are already familiar with my work, then you know I like to think of humans as trees with many limbs. Even though the symptoms that bring people into my integrative family medicine practice often reside on the Physical Limb, we all know how when one limb is affected, the rest of us suffers, too. This is why I believe it's crucial to approach any Healing Project looking at all "limbs" of your "tree." And my Brain Healing course is no exception.
WHAT IS INCLUDED IN THE BRAIN HEALING COURSE?
In a series of 7 modules, I address brain health as it pertains to every limb of your tree, offering tools, practices, and mindset shifts to support any Brain Healing Project. I begin each module with an hour-long talk covering these topics:
Module 1
Foundations: Brain Healing on all Limbs of your Tree
Module 2
Tapping into your senses for your EMOTIONAL LIMB
Module 3
Neuroplasticity-invoking exercises for your PHYSICAL LIMB
Module 4
Managing the monkeys of your CONCEPTUAL LIMB
Module 5
Connecting to your WHY on the SPIRITUAL LIMB
Module 6
Enriching the soil to nourish your ROOTS
Module 7
Celebrating and Connecting on your SOCIAL LIMB
Additionally, the course includes....
- Q and A's at the end of each module's talk, recorded during the live initial release of this course, where you can hear commonly asked questions and get their answers;
- Curated talks by experts in the world of neuroplasticity (that's Fancy Doctor Speak for "brain healing and optimization");
- My Brain Health Playbook which will help you to organize your thoughts, identify next steps, and keep track of all your takeaways during the course;
- The Holistic Check-in, one of my favorite tools to bring awareness and clarity to your life during this course and beyond;
- A welcoming, virtual community of like-minded, open-hearted humans in a judgment-free zone, sharing tips as we discover how to heal and optimize the brain, together.
I just know you will find this course beneficial to you and your family as you consider what steps you can take towards optimizing the brains you care about.
Above all, I can't wait to support you on your journey!
