I’m really excited to share about a new online course for brain health. But some background first – when I got sick, the biggest source of knowledge and healing for me was the work of Dr. Datis Kharrazian. He has two books – his thyroid book, “Why Do I Still Have Symptoms (when my labs are normal”, and “Why Isn’t My Brain Working?”. The first book helped me work with numerous underlying issues along with my autoimmunity. The second book was what helped me regain my brain health after spending a long time in a state of relative disability due to brain inflammation.

Dr. Kharrazian’s book on brain health is big, and though written for the patient, it can be daunting to get through. Sometimes people aren’t sure where to start, so they just don’t, and continue with bothersome symptoms. So he created the online course to guide patients through the basic sequence he uses with his patients, so they have an understanding of their own brain function and dysfunction, how to assess where they are in the present, and effective, doable dietary and lifestyle tools that really help people change their symptoms and their life.

I can attest to that, as it changed mine profoundly. I took the inaugural course last year, and I learned so much (I’m still learning) about how so many of my symptoms were – and are – based upon inflammation in my brain. I know that sounds pretty gnarly. It is, and it’s pretty common, too. The tools I’ve learned in the course really made me stop and look at my life and how I’m either setting my brain up for long-term health, or long-term degeneration. It was kind-of scary to realize what a slippery slope I was on, and made clear why a bunch of my issues were so bad. The simplicity of the knowledge and protocols is science-backed and astounding in its effectiveness – I really wish more people had access to it in the mainstream!

I’m sharing the course here because it’s a really good resource for anyone who deals with mental fatigue, foggy thinking, depression, brain fog, digestion issues, lack of motivation, anxiety. All those things are actually brain-based, and there is a lot you can do to affect change. The course information is presented over six weeks, but after it launches you can start when you want and finish at your leisure – it’s not ‘closed’ after the six weeks. That way, people who need to go slower can make progress in a comfortable fashion.

So, here’s a link to the lead-in page to the sign up form for the course, Banish Brain Fog: The Six-Week Brain Rescue Plan – it is an affiliate link, and if you sign up I get a spiff, but it doesn’t raise the cost for you. I’m buying this course for a family member who has clear brain issues. If you take it, I’d love to know what you think!
