Your Mental Health Toolkit: Developing tools for stress tolerance

This month's discussion: Stress Tolerance

Real resilience isn't just about "getting through" hard times; it is built on the foundation of Stress Tolerance. This internal capacity dictates how effectively we can challenge anxiety, overhaul our diet, or push toward new levels of fitness.

When we decide to change, our instinct is often to "jump off the cliff"—plunging into extreme fasting, aggressive workout programs, or intense new relationships. However, without the proper physiological and metabolic groundwork, these "white-knuckle" efforts often lead to burnout rather than breakthroughs.

Got questions about health and mental health? We've got strategies for your tool kit!

Join Dr. Sara Weelborg, a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, and Dr. Kristen Allott, a Naturopathic Doctor, for a monthly Q&A session where you can ask your burning questions about mental health.

With over 40 years of combined experience, Sara and Kristen bring a wealth of knowledge to the table. Sara's expertise includes medication management, talk therapy and the cross section of nutrition and mental health. While Kristen specializes in medical nutrition therapy, lab testing for nutritional and hormonal deficiencies, and mindfulness techniques for resilience.

What you'll gain:

• Expert answers to your mental health questions.
• Insights on medication, natural approaches, and therapy.
• Practical tips for navigating your mental health journey.
• Information on essential lab tests to discuss with your doctor.
• A supportive community where you can learn and connect.

We'll meet on the second Wednesday of each month at 6:30 PM to 7:30 PM PT via Zoom. Feel free to join anonymously or with just your first name.

Important Note: This Meetup is for educational and informational purposes only. Dr. Allott and Dr. Weelborg will not be providing individual therapy or medical advice. For mental health crises, please call 988 or visit your local emergency room.
