This webinar focuses on integrative treatments that can bring improved regulation to the stressed brain. Concepts from stress research, i.e., allostasis, allostatic load, and allostatic overload - will be defined and referred to within the chronic stress framework so as to enumerate integrative treatments that mobilize allostatic systems to improve brain and psychological health, as well as physical health. The treatments advocated include natural health products to lower the intensity of emotional overwhelm, and to reduce the pathophysiological harms to the brain and body.
