We have people in third world countries suffering from malnutrition due to not being able to get hold of enough food. Yet people in first world countries have access to heaps of food, are suffering from infertility, many chronic diseases, and also over-nutrition which is another type of malnutrition. Plus those of living in first world countries also want to spend the least possible on food, with no regard for how much we spend on other things like cars, clothes and other material things. It seems like most of us have our priorities wrong.

So no matter where we look in the word – no matter how rich or poor you may be – both first world and third world countries have a large proportion of their populations suffering with illnesses – both acute and chronic.

Where am I going with this? Well because of the high rates or chronic disease here in the UK, it seems that few of us know how to eat correctly. The reason we eat in the first place is to keep us alive. So, it makes sense that we should be spending our time and money ensuring we fully understand how to choose the right foods to nourish our body and mind. To ultimately thrive being the goal, not just feeling OK every day or slightly under par – as this is not normal contrary to what modern day living tells us. This is where I can step in and guide you. Because not enough of us are aware that a poor nutritional status , and an over toxic body and mind can be the culprit behind many modern day diseases.

So, my ultimate aim is to help people of all walks of life, just like yourself prevent ill health no matter how rich or poor you may be and feel great, simply because you deserve nothing less. I am here to educate and inform and never to dictate to you, as it is through education and awareness as to what causes ill health, that you will become empowered to prevent ill health and will end up wanting to employ the tools I teach you to help you do this on your own accord.

Even if you are currently living with a chronic health condition, my therapy could help you to manage your symptoms and even reduce the amount of medication you take. Some people have even been able to come off medication completely. What a joy!

In a nutshell, Natural Nutrition is a gentle complimentary therapy that addresses the underlying cause of dis-ease. This includes looking very much at your current diet, your relationship with food, your relationship with yourself and addressing your environment and lifestyle, ensuring these are both free of toxins too. I hope to offer you a better solution to managing your health that will help you not only live your healthiest life but feel your healthiest on a long term basis.

What is a complimentary therapy?

Natural Nutrition is complimentary because it goes very well alongside all conventional treatments you may currently be using and even other natural and holistic treatments.

Also, over my time as a nutritionist I have learnt that it is never the food that causes peoples ill health – it is peoples attitude towards food and their health that does. So, this is what pushed me to begin my training as a Life Coach, so I am able to help motivate and move you forward quicker in living your healthiest lifestyle – freeing you somewhat from the negative thought patterns that might be stopping you stick to a healthy lifestyle.

Some of the health issues that can improve with Natural Nutrition:

  • Skin problems
  • Fertility problems (both male and female)
  • Mental health problems
  • Weight problems (both under and over weight issues)
  • Digestive problems
  • Premature aging – help keep your body young and reduce how quick you age

Many people also report of; sleeping better, having more energy, feeling less groggy in the morning, reducing the number of panic attacks, not needing to take headache pills and even falling pregnant after sticking to their specific lifestyle plan for only three months!

In the beginning we will work out your specific lifestyle plan based on your unique answers to a lengthy but thorough questionnaire. As we go on, we will pay close attention to how your body and mind reacts to this new way of living and eventually we will add supplements and gentle naturopathic techniques alongside the diet changes if all is going well. As you move forward and achieve some of your health goals, we will modify the lifestyle plan accordingly. So what you may be doing in the beginning may not be the same after say three months.

Specific areas I always work on with new clients are:

  • Address Current Supplements – Most people when they come to me are already taking a supplement. So I at first ensure the ones they are currently taking are optimum, and also we address do they really need them? Could food be a better option if they switched to organic for example which is richer in nutrients? We also cover not all supplements are created equally.
  • Learn How to Read Food Labels – a vital tool in the oh so confusing world of ‘clever’ marketing that often gets the better of us!
  • Support Blood Sugar – this goes a long way to feeding the brain and helping to create a calmer, stronger, less emotional you.
  • Supporting digestion – even if you eat a brilliant diet currently, your body may be overwhelmed in this area and so might not be able to access the nutrients your body needs to thrive.
  • Address Pre-Dispositions – the more chronic illnesses in your family at the time of your conception will mean the higher your toxic internal load. So, this can mean we have to work a little deeper for longer than normal before results can be seen.
  • Balancing hormones – this is something every man, woman and child need to be aware of, as our hormones are so easily set out of whack and can cause many health problems as a result. Knowing the food and environmental triggers can be very valuable in keeping the delicate endocrine system happy.
  • Deep Detoxing (Only When Necessary) – All my clients end up embarking on a daily detox which basically means when you eat the correct foods, you are helping your body detox from the daily toxins it absorbs and produces as a by product of digestion naturally. A ‘deep detox’ is a juice fast with special supplements and organic juices over a three to five day period, which can really help in getting rid of the mucoid plaque we all have (and can cause up to 5kgs of extra body weight!). What I will never do is apply a deep detox until your body is strong enough and built up well enough to handle it. As when you detox deeply, you lose some good nutrients as well as the toxins we are trying to get rid of.
  • Supplements – I ensure my clients only buy supplements that there body cannot make, or that their food is not adequately providing. I promise you will not leave with an arm full of supplements on your first visit, and that I will only add in the supplements when your body can handle them, which varies from person to person. My key in the beginning stage is to help you work on improving your health through food first. But this can and does have its limitations. I prefer to see the supplements I give you as food, and is why I only suggest for my clients where possible supplements derived from whole, organic food.
  • Detox Your Lifestyle – perhaps you have a vice like smoking or drinking, you are a cleanaholic and have a house full of toxic chemicals, or you are tech junkie that is not aware of the damaging effects from Electro Magnetic Fields – either way I can help you to remove environmental toxins that may be contributing to your poor health which often gets overlooked.
  • Live By The Seasons – each season can affect your health positively or negatively, so it is vital to understand how to get the most from your health by living in accordance with the seasons, and the moon phases.
  • Exercise – small amounts of exercise for those that can, can contribute to making you feel great quicker.
  • Motivate & Empowerment – I encourage you to take the lead when it comes to your health. Explaining why something is beneficial at all times too so you feel like you are learning and not being ‘spoon fed’ (excuse the pun). But we all need help to get going, or to keep going – which is why I am also here to encourage you to stick to your new healthy lifestyle, especially when you are beginning to see results.

I really enjoy helping my clients achieve results, and feel part of my high success rate is from being very thorough. No stone will ever be left unturned. Even if in some cases it can take some time to see dramatic results, the results are always worth it for chronic long standing health problems, and when you prevent getting chronically ill – which no one ever wants.

Dis-ease is not always a complicated thing, nor is it always unmanageable by yourself – all you need is to learn the tools to help support yourself and once employed, I can assure you you will never look back. Investing some time into your health to manage an existing health condition or simply to prevent one arising – is the best gift you can give yourself.

 

Why should you hire me?

Because I am a real person (not being pushed by a marketing team) and I live what I preach. I believe my services I offer are unique because I have struggled with my own health problems for many years, that was until I found Natural Nutrition. This is a genuine story and not a sales gimmick either. I had endometriosis, reoccurring ulcers, headaches, monthly period pain, fibrocystic breast disease, dental cavities, sensitive teeth… I could go on but I do not want to bore you! In a nut shell, no medication worked for me, and after having a laparoscopy for the endometriosis I took my own health into my own hands – and I vowed to never have to go under a surgeons knife again, unless it was due to accidental or life saving reasons. And I have never had to since this happened over 4 years ago since I live the life I preach to all my clients. I am proud to say I empowered myself, and now live pain free and I believe so can you!

How do consultations work?

Most of my consultations are done via Skype to Skype calls – which are free over the internet. I also do consultations at my office, and also do not mind coming to meet you at your house if this is easier for you. Typically, most people are happy to meet me in person once, and then the rest of our consultations are done over Skype.

What is the frequency of consultations?

Based on most people I have seen, you will usually see me twice in the first month, and once in the second and third month. Communicating at all times through email (which is free!), as I like to hear your progress, and to change parts of the therapy where needed so you can go onto reach the next level of health. After the first 3 months clients are usually empowered enough to keep going alone, and usually re-visit me for a check up in two or three months time down the line. But every case is unique, and it all depends on how chronic your health problems are.

What is the cost?

I consult by the hour, and this costs £35.00. If I am to travel to you then I charge 40p per mile for the trip there and back. Clients in Woking, Surrey I travel to for free due to being based here. The only additional costs throughout our time working together may be for supplements and/or items needed complete the naturopathic techniques you may need to do alongside the change of diet. On average, people who need these items typically spend a one off £40.00 on the technique aids, and around £50 a month on supplements. But this is not all at once, and we apply the techniques and supplements only when your body is ready for them which differs from person to person.
