My Philosophy

Nutrition

I believe in:   

• A no ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach to health and nutrition
• Bio-individuality
• A ’real food’ approach to nutrition
• Food as medicine and nourishing from within
• Non-weight based focus to health
• Eating with awareness, knowing what we are eating, why we are eating it, where it comes from and more importantly how it will make you feel
• Simplicity over superfoods!
• Food as nourishment, not punishment or reward
• Good health starts in the kitchen! Getting back to eating food in it’s minimally processed, less refined state.
• What we put in our bodies directly impacts our minds, bodies and overall well-being.
• Food has the power to nourish, heal and energise our bodies
• It’s not what we eat some of the time that makes us healthy, its what we eat most of the time

Lifestyle

• An active lifestyle that unlocks energy, being active every day and doing movement that you love
• Never using exercise as punishment for something you ate
• Importance of stress relief techniques and finding, then prioritising self-care practices to manage stress
• Prioritising sleep, rest and restorative practices
• The importance of spending time in nature and sunshine
• Nurturing your important relationships and learning how to play again

I don’t believe in:

• Diets
• Deprivation
• Counting calories
• Excessive exercise
• Good food/bad food mentality
