#14 Avoiding Diabetes with Christine Gautreaux

Christine Gautreaux holds a Bachelor's and Master's Degree in Social Work and is dedicated to the pursuit of play, joy, art & social justice.  She is co-author of Stillpoint: A Caregivers Playbook to find ease and to take a deep breath and reclaim joy. 
Christine believes in the power of body wisdom and somatic play to help heal trauma and is a certified InterPlay leader. 
Her dad was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in 1992 almost. They think it was caused by Agent Orange that he was exposed to in Vietnam.

"I had gestational diabetes with both of my pregnancies - managed with diet & exercise".
"Self-care is tuning in and recognizing the subtle physical signs of potential difficulties".
