The Mindful Gut – Change your Gut, Change your Mind, Change your Life!

Welcome to The Mindful Gut!

Nurture Your Gut - Nourish Your Mind!
We started with a simple question: What if true wellness begins in the gut?

After years of dealing with bloating, stress and the overwhelming maze of wellness advice, we realised something vital: the gut isn’t just about digestion.

It’s deeply connected to how we feel, think and live. So we set out to change that!

The Mindful Gut empowers you to take control of your well-being by nurturing your gut and calming your mind -together.

We blend cutting-edge science with mindfulness practices and our secret sauce of self-compassion, to help you feel balanced, clear and resilient from the inside out!

I’m a TEDx Speaker, Hay House author, & founder of The Mindful Gut. I’d love to support you to have more energy, more vitality and more health!

Because your Gut is the foundation of your whole health.

So grateful you’ve landed here!

With Love to YOU and your gorgeous Gut

What people are saying…

"[Calm Your Gut] brings us back into connection with one of our most sacred events – eating food. This is one of the most powerful experiences in our day as. It's time we embrace the profound nature of this seemingly mundane event and [this book] serves as your guide."

"Cara Wheatley-McGrain puts the heart into the science of the human microbiome. Warm, helpful, comprehensible, practical and scientifically accurate…a wise and resourceful companion on their journey to true gut health."

"[Calm Your Gut] will transform the gut of anyone who reads it. It's a refreshing take on being compassionate and loving your gut so much that your life and gut change naturally and organically. This book is just as fascinating as our digestive system! I recommend this book to anyone who struggles with gut issues including bloating, IBS, IBD, Crohn's disease, and even acne and psoriasis. If you want to become the architect of your own gut and health you will be glad you spent the time reading this book!"

"A fascinating and insightful book. Cara not only teaches us why gut health is so vitally important for mental and physical health, but she compassionately guides us through a diverse range of helpful strategies for improving our gut health and inspires us to take control of our health."

"A healthy gut is not only the foundation of our physical health; it is also critical to our mental and emotional health. Equally, to heal our gut we can't just work with the physical aspects, we also have to work with our mind and emotions. Cara Wheatley McGrain offers a practical and inspiring approach to gut healing on each of these levels, rooted in her own lived experience."

"Never before have I encountered a book on gut health that feels like a warm hug. In these sterile living conditions, knowledge of ways to boost our gut health is vital and [Calm Your Gut] manages to empower us with such heart and deep authenticity. Cara's lived experience cultivates a real sense of understanding, and I love the relatable and practical nature of her soothing suggestions. This is a welcome new approach to gut health, anchored in compassion, self-insight and real holistic health. So refreshing."

"Cara has a wonderful style and brings what is perhaps our most underrated organ – the gut – to life. She has lovingly joined together personal experience, scientific research and expert advice, all embedded in compassion, to develop your must-have handbook for all things wellbeing."
