Welcome to Bacopa Moon, where we eat healthy, heal, and have fun!

At Bacopa Moon, we get the connections between unhealthy relationships and unhealthy eating. We get how important it is to eat healthy when healing trauma and defining self-love.

Most of us eat poorly when we’re going through rough times and in our culture, nutrition’s ability to heal is highly underestimated. Bacopa Moon’s promise is to help people change their lives through the power of nutrition, especially those who are recovering from antagonistic and narcissistic relationships. These empowering courses and practices help nurture resiliency and re-awaken self-love.

Bacopa Moon is a trauma-informed company.

Relationships have a powerful impact on the food choices we make. There is a deep connection between antagonistic relationships and disordered eating. It takes a lot of strength, effort, and perseverance to recover from toxic family systems and unhealthy relationships. And it’s not just in families. In many ways, many aspects of our culture are toxic and antagonistic, especially when it comes to idealized body image and social pressures around food habits. 

Here at Bacopa Moon, you’ll find support for recovery from antagonistic relationships through healthy eating. Healthier eating habits translates to cultivating resilience and getting stronger to do the fun things you want to do.

The Founder, Rae Reed’s, personal journey - “I grew up in a very dysfunctional environment. As a young child, my father was gone and my mother would disappear for days at a time. There was rarely any food in the house. I learned how to make martinis before I learned how to cook an egg. It got so bad, social services had to intervene. I’ve experienced abusive, antagonistic family members and food and housing insecurity. I understand how devastating narcissistic relationships can be. In the chaos and confusion that comes with an antagonistic, narcissistic family environment, I developed bulimia and disordered eating patterns as a teenager. I fought through it. Over time, I cultivated happiness and my process for living healthy, which includes cooking, trail running and backpacking. Now, life is better than ever. I love helping others discover the joy of eating healthy and how it can transform your life. Good food and good fun can be a powerful antidote for narcissistic insanity.”

Rae is a former ultrarunner. She has a degree in Botany, a certification in Nutrition Science through Stanford, and a certification in Behavior Change through the National Academy of Sports Medicine. 

We’re passionate about good food, nature, and seizing the day. We redefine what comfort food means.
