This interview is full of information and a must listen to!
How does stress affect your sleep? How does sleep affect your stress levels? How can you improve your sleep? These are things we’re talking about in this episode.
I’m joined by Dr. Jen Parsons, a naturopath and experienced speaker in Toronto’s east end. Dr. Parsons regularly treats patients with anxiety, insomnia, skin conditions, hormonal conditions, and digestive issues. The majority of her patients are experiencing a transition in their life be it a divorce, new job, new school, or new diagnosis. She helps patient’s breakdown these changes into digestible pieces and supports them every step of the way.
She practices with the understanding that you are an expert in what you’re experiencing and she an expert in evidence-based integrative medicine.
Dr. Parsons received her doctorate from the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine and during her clinical internship she served disadvantaged communities at Queen West Community Health Centre and practiced in a mobile medical clinic with Naturopaths Without Boarders in Cap Haitian, Haiti. Prior to her naturopathic studies, Dr. Parsons received her undergraduate degree from Mount Allison University.
She’s a committed lifelong learner. The field of integrative medicine is always evolving. In between clinic days, you’ll find her reading up on the latest clinical research, attending local and international conferences, and taking continuing education courses.
In her spare time, Dr. Parsons enjoys hanging with her son and husband, cooking healthy meals for her family, practicing yoga and traveling.
We talk about why the amount of sleep that we’re receiving has been progressively decreasing over the years, the signs of sleep deprivation, how lack of sleep contributes to our stress levels and so much more! This episode is a must listen to!!
