Laurie Warren is a holistic well-being expert and author of the forthcoming book Wild World, Joyful Heart: Unlock Your Power to Create Health and Joy.

She incorporates her master's degree in clinical and integrative nutrition with training in biochemistry, functional medicine, and herbalism. Early in her post-graduate career, she realized the effect of mind and spirit on both physical health and life experience, leading to her extensive research in neuroscience and experiential training in wisdom traditions. A student of psychology for over 30 years, Laurie advocates for using the mind as a bridge - instead of a barrier.
