"You can’t afford to get sick, and you can’t depend on the present health care system to keep you well. It’s up to you to protect and maintain your body’s innate capacity for health and healing by making the right choices in how you live.” Andrew Weil
Working in the healthcare industry as a nurse for 20+ years I witnessed and participated in CTA or coping treatment approach. Treating the biomedical aspects of disease. Treating symptomatically through medication and invasive surgical interventions. Throughout my experience, I often found this band aid approach to be ineffective and unsuccessful. We need to treat the underlying causes, triggers, influences and lifestyle. Treating people pre-disease and managing and educating all facets of the causes of chronic illness. Nutrition, exercise, mental health, sleep, stress management. Treating the core of the person in mind, body and spirit.
Helping the individual to take action, make sustainable lifestyle changes, eliciting the determination to be the best version of themselves. In turn helping to prevent complacency, mediocracy, and chronic disease. Through health and wellness coaching my approach is to listen to all facets of the individual. Comprehend what simple lifestyle changes need to take place. Withdraw these lifestyle changes communicated by the individual so that they feel empowered and in control of the goal setting and planning for their optimal health vision.
Together we harness those intrinsic motivators, the deeper reasons people want to make change (the WHY!) I help get them excited about the possibilities and how this will have a domino effect into other aspects of their lives. How ultimately good physical health impacts upon good mental health, healthy relationships, healthy work environment, healthy finances……. Ensuring consistent accountablity, support and education to sustain change for life.
It starts with YOU! Are you wanting to be a healthier and happier person? Have you just had enough of your current situation? Are you really ready to take action and make a difference in your life and in your health?
It's time to start. This is the first day towards becoming a healthier YOU!
Stay Healthy!
