Holistic Health Coaching

The role of a health coach is to help you achieve an improved state of health. By educating you to better understand and enhance your body’s own innate healing capacity and changing your approach to food, we will create healthy patterns and choices to enhance your overall well-being. I have a holistic approach to health coaching which includes the use of Reiki energy medicine.

During an initial health consultation we will discuss your unique situation in depth and determine how we can reach your personal goals together. Everything we work on including food and lifestyle choices will be in partnership with any medical intervention chosen by you and your doctor and will serve as a support to that treatment path. I neither diagnose nor directly treat disease. I respect your physiological and emotional individuality and all recommendations will take into account your particular situation.

Paralysis by Analysis

Lots of people think about getting back in shape. They go on the computer and research training plans, nutrition, cardio regimens, gyms, sports and more. There is so much information out there and often people want to figure out what the best thing to do is. The problem is we spend so much time researching and not enough time doing. In the time spent sitting at the computer we could have gotten up gone for a run or walk, done some pushups, sit ups and so on… The same thing happens with our money! We research paying down debt, investing, stocks, bonds, and mutual funds until our head is spinning and in the end we accomplish nothing. The solution for both is to take action and make a change!

Spring Cleaning

Kitchens and bathrooms are breeding grounds for germs, so keeping them clean just makes good sense. But did you know about the link between tidy living spaces and mental wellness? After these long, dark winter months spring cleaning can revive not only your home but also your mind and spirit. Mess equals stress and it keeps you from things you love and contributes to feeling overwhelmed. We all want a clean home, but not everyone knows how to achieve this.

Here are 3 steps to creating a routine that works for you:

  1. Create a task list room by room.
  2. Decide how often each task should be performed (daily, weekly, monthly).
  3. Set aside 45 minutes each day to check items off your list (15 minutes before work, after work and before bedtime works just as well)

Denture ‘Info Bite’

Implant supported dentures provide better health-related quality of life than conventional dentures. Dentures can either be retained through the natural anatomy of your mouth and the suction it creates, or they can be retained by natural teeth. If you are missing all your teeth we would typically recommend placing at least 2 implants in the jaw. Small attachments (Locator Attachments) go on to the implant and snap into the denture. This helps the denture to stay put and is also much more comfortable to wear. With better retention and stability, implant dentures are a much better option than conventional dentures. They also help maintain bone, which helps maintain your facial structure and appearance. Not to mention they help you eat better and eating well is the key to general well-being.

You Asked? Sour Cherry Juice

What are the health benefits of sour cherries? Sour cherries naturally contain antioxidants, anti-inflammatories, and melatonin. Sour, tart, and pie cherries are all references to a cherry with a high acid level. It is these cherries that carry the highest acid levels, and the darker the pigmentation the higher the benefits.

It is recommended to take a dose of at least 2 oz. a day. When starting out stick to this, but once you have been on it a while and you recognize the benefits you could adjust. As for when to take it, because of the natural melatonin, take in the evening for best results. Sour cherry juice also helps with gout, which is caused by a buildup of uric acid. The natural acids in the juice breaks down the uric acid crystals in your blood and gets it moving.

Struggling with Diabetes?

Many people living with diabetes are trying to self-manage with inadequate knowledge and skills. The best approach would be to meet with a certified diabetes education consultant. Evidence has shown that one-on-one diabetes education lowers blood pressure, blood sugar, cholesterol and weight, delays or avoids complications, increases confidence to self-manage and minimizes emotional stress.

With the right help, those with diabetes can lower their risk of heart attack, stroke, and damage to the eyes, kidneys and nerves. Professionals can help develop problem solving and decision making skills, and teach you about different foods that affect your blood sugar and ultimately your lifestyle. A certified diabetes consultant can also inform you on medications and will help you learn how to take care of your feet and eyes. You will also have access to trusted resource for help and ongoing support to keep you motivated. Health is worth living for!

Spring Cleaning For Your Cells

It’s that time of year again, when we pull everything out and give it a good cleaning. Our cells need the same consideration, as many of us have been cozy by the fire, hibernating for the last few months. Block Therapy gives your cells a thorough washing, as it removes the blocks to blood flow. Proper circulation not only delivers oxygen and nutrients for cells to function, but also removes toxins, by-products of cellular functioning and even negative emotion that becomes trapped in the tissue.

Many people are big believers in cleanses and they do often work, but they are limited in their ability to fully clean the cells if there are blocks in tissue. So this spring, give yourself the full advantage. Find a cleanse that is right for you and start Block Therapy. Your cells will love you for it!
