As a peer reviewed science kind of girl, my red flags go up when I hear people throw around words like "leaky gut," "brain fog," and "inflammatory foods." Lepera threw those kinds of words around quite a bit, and the overall effect was a hippy dippy vibe about trusting your heart. While it's true that having a healthy diet and exercise routine, relieving stress, and connecting with others improves your quality of life, that's not going to fix everything for everyone.

She did give some helpful tips, whether they're backed by science or not, and I will be checking in with myself throughout each day to see where my mind wanders and where I hold stress. But overall to me, this book was like a chip bag-- disappointingly full of mostly nothing.
