Introduction

In this extra bitesize episode Clemmie explores the challenges and causes of anxiety with psychiatrist, acupuncturist, and yoga teacher Dr Ellen Vora, who specialises in depression, anxiety, insomnia, women's mental health, adult ADHD, bipolar, autoimmunity and digestive issues. She also wrote The Anatomy of Anxiety: Understanding and Overcoming the Body's Fear Response.

Ellen takes a functional medicine approach to mental health, considering the whole person and addressing imbalance at the root, and she and Clemmie cover all that and more in this episode including the impact of diet and alcohol on anxiety. It's the episode Clemmie wishes a younger Clemmie had been able to listen to!
