Summary

Jenny and I dig into some of the practical applications of things like CBD and functional mushrooms (think Lion’s Mane, Chaga, Turkey Tail, and others). A healthy mind and a healthy body absolutely go hand in hand. If you’re looking to elevate your sleep, cognition, or overall wellbeing, listen to this. Side note: This was recorded some time ago, but I was surprised to find out both Amazon and Instagram have prevented Jenny from advertising her book. Jenny Sansouci is a certified health coach and creator of the wellness blog Healthy Crush, where she's been writing since 2008. She is the author of The Rebel's Apothecary: A Practical Guide to the Healing Magic of Cannabis, CBD, and Mushrooms. Jenny is a graduate of the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, a Food Therapy graduate of the Natural Gourmet Institute, and has been trained by functional medicine doctor Frank Lipman, MD in New York City. She is based in Brooklyn.
