SUPPORTING THE BODY'S RESPONSE TO STRESS
This course is all about using Micronutrients to Support the Body’s Stress Response. Dr. Cory Ambrose will discuss well-researched phytonutrients, vitamins, minerals, and probiotics to help prevent the physiologic changes associated with psychological stress. We will also explore the connection between the gut microbiome and the stress response, and ways to support the gut-brain axis.
Cory will also explore the importance of supporting nutritional status, lifestyle choices, gut microbial composition, and other factors related to neuroendocrine health. In addition, he will discuss key prevention strategies of the downstream effects of stress, including in cardiovascular and cognitive health. This is one not to miss.
UNDERSTANDING AND APPLYING MEDICAL RESEARCH IN PRACTICE
During this live webinar, Dr. Cory Ambrose, ND, MAT will discuss key elements of research methods and help you assess the validity and applicability of research with maximal efficiency. We will highlight and review research methods and other dimensions to help you quickly assess the validity of research design. We will also discuss the potential drawbacks to certain types of study design and their downstream effects. This talk aims to help you read beyond the abstract with confidence and apply it to your clinical practice.
CALMING THE BRAIN series
Humans are by nature fearful and anxious creatures and our brains are designed to search for threats, focus on them, and overestimate and remember them. We need to rewire the brain to resist these tendencies, by using interventions that have been shown to calm the amygdala and to teach the amygdala and cortex new responses to threat.

CALMING THE BRAIN series
Humans are by nature fearful and anxious creatures and our brains are designed to search for threats, focus on them, and overestimate and remember them. We need to rewire the brain to resist these tendencies, by using interventions that have been shown to calm the amygdala and to teach the amygdala and cortex new responses to threat.
We know more about the neurological, physical, emotional, and cognitive processes underlying fear and anxiety and panic than about other emotions. As a result, we know more about the neurological processes underlying anxiety-based disorders than any other disorders. Dr. Pittman provides clear and understandable descriptions of how the amygdala and cortex each influence the production of fear and anxiety.
We should be using this information to make changes in the amygdala and cortex. The interventions presented in this course have empirical evidence demonstrating that they impact the brain and provide effective treatment of anxiety disorders.
This is a neurologically informed approach to CBT for effective treatment of anxiety that is accessible to clients of all educational levels. Interventions that target both the amygdala and the cortex for change are presented in a way designed to promote client motivation and engagement in treatment.
