Restoring Practices for the Nervous System and Fascia:

Let’s face it: farmers can spend the whole year being stressed and nervous. From the weather (too much rain, not enough rain) to ordering seeds, crop planning, managing staff, and equipment repair! Your nervous system needs restorative practices to help combat all that stress.
