Upcoming Wellness Classes
Class Logistics: 📅 Date: June 23, 2026 (Completed) ⏰ Time: 7:00 PM EST 📍 Location: Virtual via Private Zoom Link (Closed) Ever finish a meal and feel like a dense, heavy brick is just sitting at the very top of your stomach? Instead of feeling energized after eating, you might experience immediate fullness, a slow-moving dull ache, or a subtle burning sensation right under your sternum. This specific type of upper abdominal distress isn't a problem with your lower bowel—it is a clear sign of dysfunction at the very first stop: your stomach.
Part 1 introduces our complete digestive journey. Before we move into the middle GI tract in Part 2 (The Small Intestine) and the lower tract in Part 3 (The Colon), we have to fix the foundation. This class focuses entirely on optimal stomach health and upper gastric function, unpacking the hidden drivers behind that intense, immediate post-meal weight, including low hydrochloric acid (HCl), stomach lining permeability, and H. pylori infections.
In this educational class, we break down the physiological science of upper gastric breakdown and provide a clear, evidence-based roadmap to help you restore your stomach's digestive power and clear that heavy brick feeling for good.
The Low HCl Dilemma: Discover why a deficiency in stomach acid (hypochlorhydria) stops the digestive process before it can start, leaving food to sit and pool heavily in the stomach chamber rather than moving forward.
The H. Pylori Factor: Understand how a Helicobacter pylori infection actively neutralizes your natural stomach acid, damages the protective mucosal lining, and triggers stubborn upper GI inflammation and bloating.
The "Leaky Stomach" Phenomenon: Explore gastric mucosal permeability—how structural breakdown of the stomach lining allows irritants to trigger immune pathways, resulting in immediate localized swelling and distress.
The Upstream Domino Effect: Why poor upper stomach breakdown causes an unavoidable bottleneck downstream, forcing the rest of your digestive organs to struggle with poorly prepared food particles.
If you are tired of feeling weighed down by every single meal and want to fix stomach bloating using a root-cause approach, this foundational class is the perfect place to start. Come ready to understand the mechanics of upper digestion and leave with actionable, science-backed strategies to get things moving comfortably again.

Ever look down after eating and wonder, "Why do I look 6 months pregnant after eating?" If you suffer from extreme, painful abdominal distention that gets progressively worse throughout the day, you aren't just dealing with normal water retention. This specific type of severe small intestine bloating is a distinct sign of structural or functional issues in the middle section of your digestive tract.
Our multi-part series is mapping the entire digestive journey: Part 1 covered the stomach and upper digestion, and Part 3 will dive into the colon. In Part 2, we are turning our focus entirely to the complex mechanics of the small intestine, specifically uncovering the root causes of severe abdominal swelling like Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO), poor gallbladder function, and sluggish gut motility.
In this interactive masterclass, we unpack the physiological science behind the "pregnant belly" bloat and provide a clear, evidence-based roadmap to help you restore optimal digestive clearance.
The SIBO Bloating Connection: Discover how bacteria translocate into the small bowel, fermenting dietary carbohydrates into excess gas right under your ribcage.
Signs of Sluggish Gut Motility: Meet the Migrating Motor Complex (MMC)—your small intestine’s natural "sweeping wave"—and learn how a stalled MMC leads to chronic bacterial fermentation.
Gallbladder Dysfunction & Bile Flow: Explore how low bile production, thick bile, or poor gallbladder clearance creates a digestive bottleneck and triggers downstream bacterial overgrowth.
The Mid-GI Domino Effect: How unresolved issues from the stomach (like low stomach acid) alter the pH of the small intestine, stopping the digestive waterfall and setting the stage for fermentation.
If you are tired of wearing stretchy pants to dinner and want to fix severe chronic bloating at the root before we move down to the large intestine in Part 3, this class is for you. Come ready to look at your digestive symptoms through a functional lens and leave with actionable, science-backed strategies to get rid of SIBO bloating for good.

Ever notice that your bloating sits low in your pelvis, making your favorite jeans painful to button by mid-afternoon? Unlike the rapid, high-pressure swelling that happens immediately after eating, chronic lower abdominal bloating is often a slower, heavier buildup. This specific type of distention is a classic signature of dysfunction at the end of the line: the colon (large intestine).
Having mapped the upper GI tract in Part 1 (The Stomach) and the middle GI tract in Part 2 (The Small Intestine), Part 3 completes our digestive journey. We are turning our focus entirely to the large intestine, uncovering the distinct root causes of lower pelvic pressure, including gut dysbiosis, colon motility issues, hidden pathogens, and localized inflammation.
In this educational class, we unpack the physiological science behind large intestinal transit and provide a clear, evidence-based roadmap to optimize elimination and clear chronic lower bloating for good.
The Dysbiosis & Gas Bottleneck: Discover how an imbalance between beneficial and opportunistic bacteria in the colon alters fermentation patterns, producing excess gas that gets trapped in the lower bowel loops.
Chronic Constipation & Motility Stalls: Uncover why sluggish colonic transit time (even if you pass a bowel movement daily) allows waste to sit too long, leading to continuous fermentation, stool compaction, and structural distention.
Pathogens & Parasites: Learn how low-grade, chronic infections from protozoa, pathogenic bacteria, or yeast overgrowths irritate the mucosal lining, causing persistent immune activation and lower abdominal swelling.
Inflammation & the Mucosal Barrier: Explore how a compromised gut barrier ("leaky gut") and localized colonic inflammation disturb normal fluid balance and nerve signaling, keeping your pelvic region in a state of constant, protective defense.
If you are tired of dealing with heavy, uncomfortable lower pelvic pressure and want to fix large intestine bloating using a root-cause approach, this final piece of the puzzle is for you. Come ready to map out your final steps toward true digestive clearance and smooth elimination.
