177 // Optimizing Health for Special Needs Homeschooling: Uniting Functional Medicine and Charlotte Mason Principles with Hally Brooke

Have you heard that gut health impacts mental health conditions like ADHD, neurodiversity, anxiety, depression, and autism - but didn’t know HOW or WHY? Did you know that prioritizing self-care will positively impact your ability to provide better care for your children? Have you wondered if there are signs that indicate a need for functional medicine in your family's health journey? Today I’m excited to explore the powerful connection between self-care, healthy eating habits, and how this affects the quality of your homeschooling in the context of the Charlotte Mason lifestyle. Our guest today is Halle Brook, founder and CEO of Live Nourished. She shares her expertise in holistic healthcare. She explains how combining Functional and Western Medicine can optimize your family well-being, with a special emphasis on gut health and its connection to emotional and hormonal balance for the family. Hally shares how to cultivate a healthier lifestyle for your family by nourishing them with natural foods, immersing in nature, and fostering kitchen involvement. And she reminds us parents that it's essential to prioritize our own needs and seek support on this parenting journey, because living in overwhelm does not help us thrive. Grab your notebook and cup of goodness, and let’s chat about some practical tips to nourish your body, mind, and soul that align with a beautiful Charlotte Mason lifestyle.
