Recovery is different from abstinence, though both are important as you heal from addiction. Abstinence is the avoiding of an addictive substance, while recovery is the balancing of your body from years of addiction. For example, some people go from cocaine to coffee so the same activating patterns of addiction are playing out with a new substance. This free session focuses on the somatic psychology behind addiction (a desperation for safety) as well as the biochemistry that causes us to become addicted. Whether it's food, legal or illegal drugs, television, media, work, porn, sex, or money we welcome anyone here who is in recovery, wants to be, or supports people in recovery to learn the important role that food plays in helping the body become balanced and less dependent on addictive substances and behaviors.

These Food Therapy sessions are free, 60-minute recorded sessions. A replay will be sent out afterwards to everyone who has registered.

Join us for a 90-minute webinar on August 9, 2025 exploring male puberty through a somatic framework. This event is not for the boys themselves but parents and guardians, family members, teachers, school counselors and therapists, doctors who work with children, or even grown men interested in understanding how and why puberty impacted their bodies the way that it did. 

Luis will delve into what a child's body goes through biologically, which includes being on the receiving end of an overwhelming amount of testosterone. This is a much bigger event for a boy’s body than talked about, often traumatizing and confusing, which can lead to behavioral issues and a fractured relationship to self. In this webinar, we will discover ways to support them, how to build capacity for ruptures with boys/teens, and how to support yourself in containing their big expressions. We will also explore nutritional guidance for elevated hormones, nervous systems, and adrenals. 

To better understand male puberty, Luis will discuss themes around screens, pornography, and social media, and early exposure to things the body and mind isn't mature enough to understand yet. We will also dive into other things that impact the young male body like autoregulation, activation, and isolation.

During the webinar, the male somatic therapists and assistants who work with our HLN Embodied Men’s Group will be present to answer your questions in the chat or add insight where necessary. If you’re looking for someone to work with after the webinar, with your family or your child, they are available for 1:1 sessions and somatic support.

There will be time for Q&A at the end, and everyone who registers will get a replay. 

This webinar is free to anyone in the HLN membership.

This session will explore a few fundamental things with ADD & ADHD: starting with dopamine and the nervous system. Most treatment for AD(H)D involves stimulants that create dopamine spikes to help us feel the reward that comes with focusing on, otherwise, boring tasks. Like, painfully boring tasks. I'm going to teach, as someone who was diagnosed with ADHD at age 9, how you can use nutrition to restore your nervous system and even create more sustainable dopamine to focus and get things done. In addition to ADHD I also have Tourette's Syndrome & Nervous Ticks which are mostly in remission due to my balancing diet and somatic techniques. Join me for this free session to learn how you can begin supporting yourself.

Intermittent fasting, juice fasting, and straight up water fasts have undeniable health benefits. But did you know that the cleansing mechanism during a fast is powered by one important stress hormone? Adrenaline. This free session explores the nuanced discussion around when it's most supportive to fast, how to prepare your body for fasting, and when it's more stressful than helpful for your body. I'll be focusing on blood sugar, hormonal cycles, intentional fasting, & religious and lunar fasting. Please come with plenty of questions because toward the end we will have a Q&A.
