Did You Know Gut Health is Key to Your Happiness? Toxicity and stress steal our joy. Pain and disease drain our creativity. Ninety percent of the biochemistry that activates happiness is manufactured in your gut. It is time to take charge of your gut health to access the joy, energy and optimism that you have been missing! We come into contact with literally hundreds of chemicals a day. Our bodies were not designed to assimilate or eliminate these toxins, and that is costing our health and happiness. Yet, it is possible to thrive in our modern world!

Author Biography
Julia Loggins was born in Hollywood, CA in March of 1955, and began the study of holistic medicine by saving her own life, after a childhood of life-threatening illness and disease, including asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, bleeding ulcers and blood sugar issues. Ms. Loggins embraced the world of regenerative medicine and the understanding of stress and toxicity as the source of illness and disease. She embarked on a living foods diet, wheatgrass therapy, juice fasting and other forms of detoxification. She studied for two years at the Hippocrates Health Institute, then in Boston, with Dr. Ann Wigmore, Dr's Brian and AnnaMarie Clement and Viktoras Kulvinskas. She completed the Health Educator's Course there in 1982. She studied with psychiatrist Dr. Ernest Pecci, whose work is now being carried on at the Hoffman Institute in Northern California, exploring the mind-body connection and the understanding of how family patterns affect health and well being. In 1983, she became a certified colon therapist and opened a private practice in Santa Barbara, CA. Having been told by doctors that she would never have children, and after having four miscarriages, Ms. Loggins studied with Niravi Payne, a pioneer in the field of the mind/body connection to fertility. Following her study, she gave birth to two healthy children, now 17 and 21, and became certified in Ms. Payne's method. Ms. Loggins wrote her first book, "Dare to Detoxify," in 2012, the culmination of over three decades of work in the holistic medical field, with a specialty in detoxification, digestive and autoimmune disease. She has a private practice in Santa Barbara, California, and lectures and teaches nationally. Ms. Loggins believes there can be no black and white thinking with regards to our health, focusing on a team-centered strategy for healing, aligning with both allopathic and alternative medical doctors and practitioners. The Mission of her work is to bring to as many people as possible the understanding that gut health is intrinsic to vitality and happiness; if our gut is happy, we're happy. She also wrote, "Dare to Detoxify," and co-authored "The Unimaginable Life" with her former husband, Kenny Loggins.
