Spending time in nature can be a simple but powerful way to support your mental health. 🌿

Whether it’s a quiet walk, time by the water, or just a few moments outside, nature has a way of helping us slow down, regulate our nervous system, and gain a bit more perspective. Many people notice feeling calmer, more grounded, and better able to process emotions after being outdoors.

These small moments of connection can make a meaningful difference. And sometimes we also need support to understand what we’re feeling and how to move forward. Therapy offers a space to explore that more deeply, with guidance, reflection, and tools tailored to you.

If you’ve been thinking about reaching out, I offer a complimentary 10-minute intro appointment to see if it feels like a good fit.

Why eating Veggies First works (the science)

Vegetables are rich in fiber, which plays a key role in balancing blood sugar:

1. Fiber creates a protective “mesh” in your digestive tract, slowing down the absorption of glucose from carbs.

2. It slows gastric emptying, so food leaves your stomach more gradually.

3. It boosts GLP‑1, the satiety hormone, which helps you feel full and stabilizes glucose levels.

Studies have shown time and time again that eating vegetables first can lower post‑meal glucose and insulin levels in both healthy people and those with type 2 diabetes.

One of the most important ways to eat in order to support our mental health is to keep blood sugar stable!

Tip #2: Skip the calories, focus on the ratio
First things first, you can skip right past the Calories line. Yes, it’s the biggest line, because that’s what manufacturers want you to focus on the most. But the molecules matter more than the calories. And in the Nutrition Facts, the molecules inside of a food are spelled out for all to see, if you know where to look.

Look at these lines:

Total carbohydrates
Dietary fiber

When assessing dry foods (like cookies, pasta, bread, cereal, cereal bars, crackers, chips, etc.), the grams next to Total Carbohydrate and Total Sugars represent the molecules that cause a glucose spike: starches and sugars.
