Pillars of Health
These are the essential pillars that will shape our journey to your optimal health. I believe in a holistic approach that considers every facet of your well-being. Let’s dive into these pillars together.
First pillar
Sleep
First up is Sleep. It’s not just a nightly ritual—it’s during deep sleep that your body does crucial repair work. It is extremely important to rest and recharge. Aim for at least 7 hours of quality sleep; it’s a simple yet powerful step. If you’re ever feeling fatigued or dealing with increased hunger, sleep apnea might be a common culprit we’ll explore.
Second pillar
Nutrition
Now, onto Nutrition. You’ve heard the saying, ‘we are what we eat.’ In our busy lives, nourishment often takes a back seat. Eating at regular intervals, about three times a day, keeps your hunger levels in check. I’m an advocate for intuitive eating—listening to your body’s hunger and fullness cues. It’s about reshaping our relationship with food, especially in a culture that often pushes restrictive habits. Emotional eating is something many of us face, and we’ll work together to navigate that.
Prioritize yourself, identify your values, meet yourself where you are in your journey, focus on small, sustainable changes, and let’s explore how we can free up resources to make space for new, health-promoting behaviors.
Third pillar
Connection
Our third pillar is Connection, both with yourself and others. The science is clear—regular social engagement is key to physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Let’s explore how we can foster more of that in your life. (check out this great article to learn more)
Fourth pillar
Emotional Regulation and Stress Management
Lastly, Emotional Regulation and Stress Management. We all have coping strategies, but sometimes they don’t align with our health goals. Together, we’ll identify triggers and find ways to manage stress that get to the root cause.
