We focus on a functional and balanced approach to nutrition. There is no fad dieting or quick-fixes here. We focus on fueling the body with what it needs. That doesn’t mean just macronutrients but also those micronutrients that are crucial for optimal functioning. We focus on quality over quantity, ingredients over calories and balance over strict-eating. It is all about awareness and conscious consumption. What we eat directly impacts how we feel. Eat for not only the body but also the mind and spirit. And yes, sometimes that means a donut.

Or as I like to call movement. We will focus on moving the body in kind and intentional ways. Movement shouldn’t stem from a place of punishment or solely for aesthetic reasons. We come up with plans that encompass movement that is actually enjoyed backed by consistency and discipline. Sometimes that means walking and yoga, sometimes it means more vigorous activities. Movement is a crucial aspect of a healthy lifestyle. This does not mean you need to workout 6 days a week for 3 hours a day. It means to listen to your body, be present and just move. Whatever that may mean for you.

Let’s face it… Living in this work to live society isn’t easy. It brings on stress and overwhelm from all directions. How we manage our stress and get the body back into its parasympathetic state is more important than ever. Stressors can be emotional, from work/life balance, or internal stressors like imbalances, toxicities and deficiencies. Stressors are often the root cause of “dis-ease” in the body. The activities that we enjoy that help us relax and recharge help balance out the constant flux of life and prevent illness from occurring. If you are worn out and stressed, your body is as well.

With all the toxins we’re exposed to on a daily basis, it is important to limit that exposure. From our air, the water we drink, the furniture we buy, the products we use, the foods we eat, the radiation we’re exposed to, there are toxins everywhere. While we can’t escape or avoid them all, we can consciously choose what we allow and what we don’t. We focus on building a holistic lifestyle that is tailored to each individual and their wants and needs.

Wait.. so I should rest my body and let it recover? Yes! We’re taught to be constantly on the go but aren’t reminded of the importance of rest and recovery. Sleep is one of the most necessary factors of health. It is the time when our body detoxes, recharges, and rebalances the most. Without proper rest, our body isn’t given the chance to heal. Allowing the body to get into the parasympathetic state [rest and digest], we don’t digest properly, detox efficiently, breath deeply, allow muscle repair/growth and more. In this overstimulating world, our bodies are calling on us to CHILL.

Our mind and body are interconnected. What we think, becomes what we feel which becomes what we believe. We uncover those limiting beliefs that are holding you back from your true potential. We work on the underlying issues that cause anxiety and unease in the first place. We discover what are your true needs and beliefs about yourself and the world around you. Suppressing and holding onto emotions manifests as illness in the body. Each emotion can be stored in the body until intentionally released. Heal your body by healing your mind.

Supplementation is exactly what it sounds; supplementing the diet/lifestyle you already have. This does not take place of other factors but instead adds to them. Most of us are mineral and vitamin deficient from gut imbalances, digestive dysfunction, stress, unhealthy diet, medications, soil depletion, pathogens etc. Restoring those deficiencies is significant for all body processes. Vitamins and minerals have hundreds of functions: aid in digestion and absorption, energy production, protect the body from invaders, build proteins and cells, maintain blood and brain function, balance mood and energy levels and more. Supplementation and functional medicine protocols are apart of the plans we provide. Protocols are used to remove the body of toxicities and pathogens found from functional labs and an extensive health intake.

It is impossible to heal if your mind doesn’t believe it’s possible. We work on building up that success mindset within you to change your conditioned beliefs about health, yourself and the world around you. We uncover what has been holding you back in your healing journey. We ask questions like… Are previous traumas showing up? Is the conditioning of what others made you believe about yourself affecting your own beliefs about yourself? What about the past is being brought into the present? Do you believe it’s possible to heal? All these questions and conversations will help redirect your mentality to one accepting of love, worthiness, and ultimately healing. Once your mindset is on the path to success, your body will follow the lead.

Nature is pretty neat y’all. It gives us the chance to be present; the key of a happy life. It allows us the opportunity to reflect, go within, appreciate what we’re given and be grateful for the symbiotic relationship we were provided with the world. In a society where we are inside most of the time, I encourage you to get outside as much as possible. The fresh air, sunshine and energies present in nature are unmatched to anything we could ever experience indoors. Use the sun as your alarm clock. When it rises, you rise. When it sets, you rest. Appreciate nature’s benefits everyday and I guarantee you will speed up the process of healing the body and the mind. Use it as your therapy.
