"A powerful and important work" W. Lee Warren, MD, neurosurgeon, author of The Life-Changing Art of Self-Brain Surgery

Discover how food plays a direct role in how you think, feel, and live out your God-given purpose.

What you eat affects how you feel--and how you feel affects how you eat. But with all the constant and often contradictory information surrounding nutrition and healthy eating, it can be difficult to know how to create a calming environment for your physical and mental health.

When your body and mind are well-nourished, everything changes. In Kitchen Therapy, integrative health coach and functional nutritionist Erin Kerry offers a unique, whole-person approach to mental health--connecting nutrition, mood symptoms, Scripture, and practical tools. Whether you struggle with ADHD, depression, anxiety, or fluctuating mood symptoms, this book will guide you through a sustainable system that keeps you fed, nourished, and energized, giving your brain what it needs to truly thrive. With compassion, clarity, and expert nutritional principles, Kitchen Therapy will equip you to:

• understand the food-mood connection and unravel your cravings
• implement nutrition as a form of therapy for a dysregulated nervous system, optimizing your health and wellness
• build easy, nutrient-dense meals for any mood symptom--without a recipe
• learn what types of food build a calmer, more stress-resilient brain

Implementing kitchen therapy is a holistic experience that impacts mind, body, and spirit. Experience the mental clarity that comes from using food as mood.
