SUMMARY:What is Immunity and What are Building Practices with Kamie
DESCRIPTION:When our immune system is compromised\, we need to ask ourselves why? And are we willing to change the course we are on and correct the underlying problems—whatever they maybe? ~Kamie Slegers \nAccording to Ayurveda\, strong immunity is a product of good digestion\, quality liver functioning\, and appropriately balanced hormones. \nWe’ve all experienced our body crashing and our health deteriorates as we fall to the inconvenience of a cold\, the flu\, allergies\, or COVID. Most of us would rather not get sick at all and given the choice\, who would refuse a strong immune system? We all want to be healthy and would rather avoid illness and disease. So\, how do we support our immunity? \nAyurveda teaches us that Ojas (vitality) and immunity are the natural outcomes of optimal health\, which depends on strong digestive fire (Agni)\, a healthy diet\, a supportive lifestyle\, and a balanced nervous system. With this knowledge\, supporting our immune system is often more about basic self-care than anything else. Our bodies thrive with proper nutrition and adequate sleep; they do even better when we commit to stress management\, cultivate healthy relationships\, embrace joy and purpose\, and living in alignment with our own authentic self. \nWe will cover a few basics to give you a foundation for building your immunity. \nThe research that I have studied comes from eastern and western perspectives. I am fortunate to live in a time that western medicine is proving guidelines and practices that eastern medicine has been implementing for thousands of years. \n\nZOOM IN LIVE!

SUMMARY:Why Having Tools to Manage Stress Matters with Kamie
DESCRIPTION:Society places a badge of honor on those who are over-committed and upholding a busy life. With continual outside pressure\, the adrenal glands have to work overtime to make enough stress hormones to sustain the habitual cycle. \nThroughout a stressful day\, our body struggles to balance the increased levels of adrenaline and cortisol in the bloodstream due to the activation of the sympathetic nervous system. Our body’s natural response is to increase the production of balancing hormones that have opposing energies (ie. estrogen\, progesterone\, testosterone). In turn\, this puts a strain on our adrenal glands and hormonal systems. Eventually\, our bodies can’t keep up with the demand. \nAt first\, our endocrine system gives us signals that something is off but eventually more serious health concerns show up such as weakened immunity\, digestive issues\, anxiety\, depression\, hormonal imbalances\, and more. \nJoin Kamie as she explains what the hormones in our body do and simple practices to activate the parasympathetic nervous system (rest and digest)to stop the sympathetic (stress response) from activating. \n\nZOOM IN LIVE! \n
