• Holistic Wellness Coaching

    Transform Your Life Today

  • True wellness isn't just not being ill

    It's waking up feeling ready to tackle whatever the day throws at you.

    It's being able to play with your grandchildren for hours.

    It's running a business with confidence and clarity during the day, yet still having the energy for a night out with friends.

    It's being able to get whatever you want out of life.

  • And it isn't just about healthy eating.

    Holistic Wellness includes:

    - Nutrition - what are you eating and how are you eating it?

    - Digestive health - are you absorbing all the nutrients you need?

    - Movement - how sedentary is your current lifestyle?

    - Exercise - how much and what kind?

    - Addiction - are cigarettes, alcohol or other substances sabotaging your wellbeing?

    - Mental wellbeing - how are you managing stress or mindset issues?

    - Emotional wellbeing - are you repressing emotions, dealing with past trauma or lack of forgiveness?

    - Spiritual wellbeing - are you feeling disconnected or that your life lacks purpose?

    - Environmental - is your environment overloaded with toxins or are you a digital junkie?

    - Social wellness - how are your relationships and social interactions?

    - Financial wellbeing - are money worries causing you sleepless nights?

    - Occupational wellness - does your career light you up or feel like a chore?

    And the list goes on...

    In order to truly feel at your best, you have to address all areas of wellness. The trouble is that this can be so overwhelming, it actually increases stress! It's so easy to throw yourself into trying to overhaul your entire life, only to burn out after a week and slip back into old habits because it feels too much to maintain.

    Holistic Wellness Coaching is all about giving you simple tools to gradually make positive changes to your life, at a pace that works for you. It's not about telling you what to do, it's about empowering you to make the right choices for the life you want to live.

  • This is for you if...

    - You're fed up with a 'one size fits all' approach.

    - You have multiple issues, from systemic health concerns to irritating little niggles, and feel you're being passed from specialist to specialist without ever getting to the root cause.

    - You're motivated to make changes but feel overwhelmed and don't know where to start.

    This is not for you if...

    - You're looking for a magic bullet solution and aren't prepared to work on yourself.

    - You're looking for generic health advice and a cookie cutter solution.

    Root Cause Healing

    I use an integrative approach based on the fundamental principles of Lifestyle Medicine, along with a range of specialist therapies, including herbal medicine, coaching and yoga, to help to balance all of the body's systems, whilst also seeking to address the root causes of dis-ease. Where appropriate I will suggest other healthcare and wellbeing professionals who can provide expertise on complex problems.

  • Why choose me?

    These days is seems like everyone is promoting holistic health solutions. But many of these fall short of truly 'whole person' care. My approach is to consider every aspect of a person to devise the best personalised plan for their wellbeing. I don't claim to have 'the one' solution or to have invented some new technique that will revolutionise your health. I just help you to apply the tried and tested strategies that have been known to promote good health for thousands of years, blended with modern scientific understanding.

    I have spent the past 20 years studying health and wellbeing from many different angles. I am a qualfied nutritionist, clinical herbalist, personal trainer, fitness instructor, health coach, yoga instructor, life coach and many more related disciplines. Over the years I've studied a huge range of healing modalities, but ultimately the fundamentals of good health remain the same. The key is finding ways to make the foundational habits stick and the right combination of little extras to bring your body into balance and help you live your best life.

  • What Do You Get

    Some examples of what my clients receive

    Personalised nutrition plans

    I focus on whole-foods, plant-based nutrition because this is scientifically proven to be the best diet for long-term health for human beings. However, I recognise that every person is different, so I work with your likes and dislikes, cultural background and values to help you build the best diet for you. I don't expect you to cut out all you favourite foods or eat green smoothies for breakfast every day (unless you want to!) but instead we will work together to add in more health-giving foods in a mangable way. I have hundreds of tested recipes I can share and flexible meal plans if that's something that works for you. Some people find detailed tracking of nutrients to be beneficial; others find that a nightmare. That's why you need a personalised plan. Together, we'll assess where you are, where you want to get to and how we build a bridge between the two.

    Fitness and personal training plans

    We all know that exercise is good for us, but how many of us have gym memberships we never use or running shoes gathering dust in a cupboard? If exercise currently feels like a chore, then we need to change that! Sometimes you just haven't found what works for you yet; sometimes there are underlying psychological issues that are sabotaging you. Together we'll build a realistic personal training plan that fits with your lifestyle and preferences. I also run regular online fitness classes if that's something that interests you.

    Self-Care strategies

    Self-care can mean so many different things to different people. You've probably read the advice to book a spa day every so often, but if you're an adrenaline junkie with ADHD, that may not work too well for you! Building a good self-care practice means understanding what your body is telling you it needs and responding to that. I can offer advice on how to get started with many different wellbeing and spiritual practices, so that you can experiment and find out what works for you. When you find something you want to explore more deeply, I can put you in touch with expert teachers who can help you further (or of course you're welcome to find your own).

    Herbal remedies and nature therapy

    Nature is a wonderful healer.

  • I know what you're thinking...

    If you've got this far, you're probably thinking, 'This all sounds great, but how much is it going to cost me?'. At this point, the business gurus would say I should spell out for you exactly how much the offer is worth and how much value I'm packing in. But I don't think you can put a value on good health and true vitality. Then I should follow up with explaining that although it's worth many thousands of dollars, I'm only going to charge you a few thousand. But not everyone can afford that. And in fact the people who most need help are generally the ones who can least afford it.

    So here's what I'm going to do instead

    If this sounds like something you could benefit from, go ahead and book a call with me. We'll work out the right combination of support to suit your needs. You get to choose how many accountability calls you get, what resources you need from me and so on (within reason obviously; I'm not going to move in with you so I can slap your wrist every time you raid the fridge). Then we'll work out a price that feels right for both of us. Because this is a collaboration we're building, not a souless business transaction.

    Real human connection

    If you haven't figured out by now, AI has no part in my business. If you've spotted any typos on this site, I apologise, but that's because I wrote all this myself and yes, I am a human being. I'm sure I could build some fancy AI chatbots that do the coaching work for me, but I assume if you wanted that you wouldn't be reading this. So instead what you get is a real human being who cares. Sure, I might take a bit longer to reply to emails, but at least you won't get a generic response from a robot.

  • Yes, I do have a lot of qualifications, don't I? I should probably get out more...
