In this podcast episode, Cassandra goes back to a topic she spoke with Meg about last week, and that topic surrounds food and using food and plants as medicine. Cassandra is a huge fan of plant medicine, it’s involved in her day to day life. Now, usually when talking about plant medicine, psychedelics are usually what comes to mind. However, Cassandra wants to talk about using nature’s food as plant medicine.

After having her most recent baby, Cassandra has really started to look at food in a different light. Growing up, we were always taught that there was ‘good food’ and that there is ‘bad food’. Good food being things that are veggies, and things low in fat. And bad things are higher in fat and calories. She wants to flip that script and start looking at food in a healing vs delayed healing aspect.

Will this food help heal my body or will it delay the healing?

It’s now that Cassandra has started teaching her own children about food, and teaching them that food is a source of energy, vitamins, minerals… AND that we do get satisfaction out of food, and that’s okay!

Come on in. Listen as Cassandra talks about how she went through different food aspects, diets, to now focusing more on healing and delayed healing. Know you’re not alone and there are many others just like you.
