The goals of your personalizedаhealth counselingаprogram are to radically improve your life, resolve concerns specific to you and your body, and to provide you with tools for a lifetime of good nutrition and balance.
Our focus will be on food. There are two types of food: primary and secondary food.* Primary food includes your career, your relationships, your physical activity, and your spirituality. Secondary food is everything that you eat and drink. Because so many of us consume secondary foods for many reasons other than hunger and nutrition, and because we sometimes try to fill voids in our primary food areas with secondary foods, it is necessary to assess both your primary and secondary food needs when determining the best nutritional plan for you. I will help you focus on what is working and what is not working in your life, lifestyle, and diet, and provide strategies and tools to help you define and achieve your goals.
So, my approach is holistic. In other words, we will address you as a whole person when determining your nutritional needs. We will work together on finding the right foods for your body and on balancing primary food, which refers to the other areas of your life that feed youаon the deepest levels. This unique approach provides meaningful, lasting results that make daily life easier, better, and healthier.
Your Program coversЕ
This is NOT a diet plan.ааIt is a LIFE plan!
Like most of us, you have probably tried a variety of diets, and may even have managed to do well on some for a few weeks or even months. However, the emphasis such diets place on willpower, deprivation and denial is both unnecessary and counter-productive. The reality is that, unless you have a plan that is practical, works with your lifestyle and takes your individuality into account, it will not last. Iаwill help you create such a plan.
Conventional dietary theories present you with food restrictions and limitations that are difficult to sustain over time. Such quick fixes do nothing to help you achieve life-long health and happiness nor do they bring out the bodyТs natural inclination toward balance. Together, we will introduce new and healthful foods and activities, gently and slowly. As you start to feel better, these habits have a natural tendency to take hold and ease out the less healthful ones.ааа
As you become more physically fit, other areas of your life such as relationships, career and creativity start to improve. You will naturally begin to crave those foods and activities that make you feel better, and to make time in your life for those things that are truly important to you.а
In our initial consultation we will discuss your unique situation in depth and determine how I can help you reach your personal goals. We will be able to see if we are a good match and if this approach will work for you. Even this first session will demonstrate how a holistic, individualized approach can make a major difference in your life.а
