Your Healing Playground - Dr. Tina Koopersmith  Lessons about digestion and food and health from my summer camp mess hall. The food in the camp dining hall wasn't organic, gluten-free, grass-fed, or Instagram-worthy. We ate cookies. We drank bug juice. We devoured cereal from little cardboard boxes.

Our unique signature means we are all wired to access safety and pleasure in a slightly different fashion; this diversity is to be praised and celebrated. When our body feels safe, we can move from our “childhood” survival stress mode to our “Wise Sage Self”.
