Food & Spirit™ personalised health and healing system - I'm certified!
I’m celebrating graduating in a leading edge health system called Food & Spirit™!
Devised by internationally recognised nutritionist and functional medicine clinician, Dr Deanna Minich, Food & Spirit™ is a truly holistic, client-centred and evidence-based model for personalised lifestyle medicine.
Combining the latest in functional medicine with the wisdom of the seven Chakra systems, Food & Spirit™ helps enable me to fluidly connect the dots between my clients’ physical health, mental and emotional wellbeing and their lifestyle, and identify were the root causes of personal imbalances are most likely to reside.
The methodology, which can be used to help support clients with a range of health complaints and goals, also invites clients to look at the seven layers of their health and wellbeing through a colourful and intuitive framework that artfully illustrates the areas that need attention, empowering them to collaborate with me in the creation of their own personalised lifestyle medicine plan, and make the choices that better serve their ‘whole self’.
Food & Spirit™ considers seven fundamental and interconnected dimensions of health including:
food, nutrition and eating
emotional wellbeing
balanced living, mental resilience and mindset
movement and oxygenation
self-expression
intuition
purpose and connection.
It promotes a rich understanding about how what we what eat, how we feel, the thoughts we think, words we speak, our dreams, the love we have and compassion we share, are all interconnected - and when one system is out balance, others may be thrown off too.
What I’ve learned is enlightening and powerful, and I’m excited to be in a position to offer my own programmes integrating Dr Minich’s framework and tools.
Reconnect
My first programme to launch using the Food & Spirit™ tools and resources, is Reconnect. Aimed at supporting people who struggle with their weight or body confidence, and who have a fragmented or emotional relationship with food, the programme is designed to help them reconnect with nourishing eating habits in a fresh, intuitive, sustainable way.
