Foundations of Healing Course

Ready to Begin Your Healing Journey?

A 6-week online course to discover the foundational steps to reclaim your energy, calm your symptoms, and restore your body's innate ability to heal.

What are the foundations?

The Foundations of Health are at the root of both health and disease. When these areas of a person’s life are balanced and nourished to function optimally, health flows naturally. When these areas are imbalanced or deficient, the door for disease opens wider.

Are you ready to reclaim your health and close the door on preventable illness in your life?

Nutrient-Dense Diet

Whole, thoughtfully prepared, foods are a source of joy and nourish the body with the nutrients it needs to thrive.

Digestion

What we eat has little impact if we can’t digest and absorb the nutrients. Proper digestive function is essential for the health of every cell and system.

Blood Sugar

From energy balance, metabolism, and inflammation to hormone production and mental health, blood sugar regulation is crucial to maintaining wellness.

Sleep

Adequate, quality sleep is essential for optimal physiological and cognitive function.

Stress

We cannot always control our stressors, but managing our response to stress has profoundly positive physical and mental impacts on health.
