I have been caring for women in health and wellness for nearly 20 years. When I started my practice over 11 years ago, I noticed that when it came to their health concerns or goals many women new WHAT to do, some knew why things were this way, but few knew HOW to do “the things” with consistency – the nutrition pieces, movement, lifestyle habits, etc., and even fewer gave themselves permission to make room for these pieces of self-care.
I focused a lot of my care on the WHY of the what. WHY you have headaches, WHY you are bloated, WHY you have insomnia. This is root cause medicine, and I still practice that. But I learned to add the piece that has a greater impact on a person's healing than anything else - the WHY of the how. “The HOW”are the changes we are going to make to our nutrition, lifestyle, the medicine we take to heal the WHAT. And WHY we are implementing these changes is the keystone to transforming, and to healing all of the parts of you.
when we come from this place,
dieting becomes nourishing
exercise becomes movement
finding the time becomes CLAIMING and protecting the time
Should become wants, needs, like-to’s
When we flip the script, it looks like:
-going to bed by 10pm not because you SHOULD, but because you are worthy of rest and deserve the most restorative sleep
-moving your body not to burn calories or as punishment for what you ate or how much body fat you have but because your body is designed to move and feels best when it does.
-having a protein smoothie upon waking because you deserve to feel nourished, stable. You deserve to experience life with energy
This is what self-love and kindness in care looks like and it starts with knowing you're worthy.
Let’s continue the conversation
