Adaptogens & How You Can Benefit From Them
Discussion by Dr. Jeff Carter
Thursday March 2nd, 2023
6:30pm-8:00pm
Come learn about different adaptogens with Dr. Jeff Carter as he discusses how to incorporate them into your life.
We are designed for balance. Stress of any kind throws us out of balance. Stress is an essential component of life to promote growth and evolution but is meant to be self limiting. In our modern world we experience stressors but instead of them being temporary processes that promote growth we enter into states of lived stress. Stress becomes a new normal which profoundly influences our mind, body, and spirit. Adaptogens are non-toxic herbs that have a normalizing impact on our physiology. I see them as part of multi-layered strategies to bring us out of a state of chronic stress back to into balance.
In this conversation we will discuss in general how adaptogens work, a few specific adaptogens, and how wise use of these supplements may benefit your life. This will be an interactive group discussion with open ended Q&A from attendees.
"My name is Dr. Jeff Carter. My goal is to help others learn how to take control of their health and well-being. I believe that everyone's path to optimal health is unique. There is no one size fits all.
In my thirties, after four years of medical school and eight years of training in Trauma Surgery, I developed a severe case of physician burnout accompanied by several physical and mental health problems. I sought help through the traditional avenues with some success, but there was something missing. Ultimately, I was able to dedicate myself to becoming healthy and found power in alternative therapies. This path led me to formally study Integrative Medicine at Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine through the University of Arizona.
I'm still a practicing trauma surgeon and now have the training and experience to incorporate Integrative Medicine practices into my patient’s healing. My hope is help others through an individualized holistic approach that empowers them to create the lives they want to live while feeling their best."
