Unlocking your inner strength, resilience, and boundless energy is all tied to an incredible alchemy called "metabolism"—your body's powerhouse that fuels the things you love.
The science
Metabolism is the process that cells use to extract energy from the food you eat, so that it can fuel and power up cells and organs to function.
When your metabolism is balanced, it controls your energy, circulation, mind, mood and immunity and can protect you many modern-day diseases.
Myth busting
People often associate metabolism with weight, but it’s actually a team of parts working together, influenced by all your lifestyle and environmental factors.
Another common misconception is that it’s genetic. But you have more control over your metabolism than you might think.
You can fine-tune it to be a powerhouse of lasting energy and supercharge your ability to live the life you desire and bounce back from day to day challenges.
How you can proactively improve your metabolism
Diet
Microbiome (the friendly helpers inside your body)
Sleep
Stress
Environmental toxins
Physical activity
Balancing these six elements not only makes you healthier, but it energises you and makes you more resilient - empowered and armed to live your best life.
Metabolism is life.
How do you know if your metabolism is out of balance?
Symptoms can manifest in different ways.
Many of my clients struggle with symptoms of fatigue, weight gain, feeling wired, out of control, and overwhelmed. These symptoms are an alarm call - a sign that your finely-tuned metabolic system is out of kilter and you need to take action.
These are the most common symptoms clients describe to me: I feel like I am not in control of my life
I often feel anxious, irritable and agitated
I struggle with digestive issues - bloating, abdominal pain, IBS, constipation and or diarrhoea
I have difficulty sleeping
Sometimes I can be quite wired and can’t seem to calm my mind
I worry all the time
I have trouble focusing, lack motivation and feel indecisive
I just don’t feel myself
I struggle with my weight and constant cravings
I suffer with frequent colds and low energy
How can you become more resilient?
By identifying and minimising environmental stressors—both physical and mental—that drain your energy, while restoring and harmonising your body's essential systems.
We are not born with resilience, we must learn to connect with ourselves by being able to practice simple nutrition and lifestyle behaviours that modify both the body and the mind.
I’m here to help: My five part method to build a resilient you.
Harmonise Your Rhythm
When and how you sleep, eat, work, move and rest matters. Your body works on a 24-hour clock that governs your functioning, so you need to harmonise this clock with your internal clock.
Feed to Revive
Identify imbalances. Feed the body the key nutrients required to function well. Revive the body and reduce the load on the system to support a healthy health.
Connect to Restore
Recognise your stressors to be able to train your body to rest and recover well.
Stimulate to Grow
Train your body and brain to better handle what life throws your way. A little bit of stress in a short duration is good for you. It generates a positive adaptive response which means it builds your tolerance to stressors at higher doses.
Protect for the Future
Flood your body with antioxidants and phytochemicals to improve circulation and oxygenation to protect your body and mind for the future.
