I thought mine was, despite being relatively young. I felt like the life force inside me was being extinguished along with my will to work.
Prior to this, I’d had a full professional career as a diplomat, working for the United Nations and as a corporate communications consultant. I worried all of this was behind me. I no longer had the energy or clarity of mind I needed.
Perhaps, like me, you wondered if this was what it felt like to get older?
Then I realised I knew plenty of women my age who worked and enjoyed their lives. Besides, buried inside me I still nursed a strong desire to go on contributing something meaningful.
Then it dawned on me that if a multitude of specialists and thousands of dollars couldn’t help me, I would have to help myself.
I began to read and research, and take control of my own health. Food played a big role, and over time, the pieces of my health puzzle began to fit together. Bit by bit I started to heal.
This was what led me to become a Nutritional Therapist. I use nutrients to restore physical and mental function at a cellular level using my 8-step process. I include mental function in my remit because of the way compromised health can impact our brain with poor memory, increasing anxiety and bouts of depression.
But maybe for you it’s an issue of knowing what to do, but not doing it? Like eat more vegetables and less sugar, or exercise more and drink less alcohol.
That’s why I recently trained as a Transformation Coach, to help my clients transform any self-destructive emotions, beliefs or patterns into empowering and motivating ones.
What I do with nutrition and coaching is simple, yet truly powerful.
Take the the woman who suffered a traumatic brain injury and suffered daily migraines and insomnia to the point she couldn’t work for years, but in four weeks of nutritional therapy, was able to go back; or the sixty-five year old woman who came bounding into my clinic, her haze of anxiety and depression lifted; or the man who had to urinate so often he couldn’t complete a half-hour train trip to work without getting off once or twice but can now hold it in until he needs; or the young woman who realised her debilitating period pains were not normal because now she barely noticed them.
Because of my first-hand experiences, my focus is on helping women with digestive problems, brain fog and chronic, sometimes complex illnesses. That said, I have plenty of male clients too.
Are you ready to commit to change and better health? Are you ready to try something that might finally work?
