Welcome to my new mini challenge series week 2, where we will upgrade our lives together, and win prizes doing it.

This month's theme is classic neuroplasticity. This week's focus is using our non dominant hand to eat a meal each day. 

Did you know that as silly as it sounds, using our non dominant hand helps to strengthen our neural connections in our brain? It also helps create new ones! Pretty cool right?

Could it be that simple? Maybe, maybe not, but it's a start. Choosing to do things with our non dominant hand helps take us out of autopilot and into our conscious mind.

This challenge can benefit everyone - so invite your friends and family to join the fun. My vote is to especially rally whoever you sit down with for dinner so they can do it too! 

Be entered into a drawing for a prize giveaway at the end of this month for your participation. Details on HOW to WIN - INSIDE week 1 episode.

Join my private podcast FB group for interaction with the challenge!

Jennifer is a mind-body practitioner, yoga instructor, and functional movement therapist, and she's had her own battle with severe chronic fatigue. While achieving top marks in my biomedical sciences and physiotherapy studies, Jenn pushed herself to the point of chronic exhaustion. She tried every traditional medical intervention to recover from chronic fatigue, but after no success and becoming bed-ridden, doctors told me that she'd never get better. She knew there must be another way. That’s when she began researching alternative approaches to healing chronic fatigue and was able to completely recover using trauma-informed, mind-body healing.

Our guest in today's episode is Sean Fowler. Inevitably succumbing to years of chronic back and leg pain, Sean had major surgery in 2015 to fuse herniated discs at the L4/L5 and L5/S1 portions of his spinal column. After surgery, Sean hit rock bottom, got addicted to the painkillers he was prescribed, and considered taking his own life. Remembering the service and sacrifice of others who fought and died, he took his life back reconstituted as an opportunity for growth and mental freedom. After being medically retired from the Army in 2016, he enrolled at George Mason University and continued his federal service with the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Sean earned an undergraduate degree in Business, Information Systems and Operations Management from George Mason University in 2021 and started a plant sales and consulting company called vetGROWS LLC. He is currently living in Washington D.C., and leading Operation Houseplant Healing, an initiative to prevent suicide and help our heroes grow by delivering 30,177 care packages with plants that connect military families with life-saving community and resources. Sean is an advocate for mental health awareness, suicide prevention, and the healing power of horticulture.

She's back!!!! That is right... our guest today is Tessa Malcarne back for round 3, but we are doing things a little different in today's episode. Today is a listener Q&A.
