Your gut knows you need this

Centered Healing Nutrition helps you understand the role of gut health in whole-body wellness.

Our gut is our center. It is the command center for our immune system and our enteric nervous system (aka the gut brain communication). It receives what we ingest on a daily basis, the raw materials that our bodies transform into the nutrients, hormones, and biochemical messengers that our cells rely on to operate optimally,  to heal from chronic disease and support us in health. Centered Healing Nutrition is a guided nutrition program and gentle detoxification system for the treatment of inflammatory conditions, gastrointestinal, metabolic and autoimmune disorders, hormonal imbalances and immune support. It provides practical and effective foundations of nutrition to help you through every stage of life; solutions and preventative measures for the chronic health conditions we face today.  Symptoms and conditions that will benefit:
  • Joint pain
  • Fatigue and Brain fog
  • PMS, Peri-menopause and Menopausal Symptoms
  • Migraines and Headaches
  • Allergies, Sinusitis, Asthma
  • Acne, Eczema, Psoriasis, Hives
  • Diarrhea, Constipation, Abdominal pain and other Gastrointestinal Disorders.
  • Diabetes, High Cholesterol, Weight gain
  • Auto-immune conditions

Transform your diet and health with our 6-week guided nutrition program.

This 6 week guided nutrition program will give your body the opportunity to gently cleanse without juicing, calorie counting, meal substitutions or supplements. Eating real, unprocessed, nourishing, nutrient dense food brings results that will last. Mood swings and cravings disappear, aches and pains, complaints and ailments that drag you down each day wane, you stay satisfied longer, and provide the basis for healthy weight and blood chemistry. 

Based on both Chinese Medicine principles and Western dietary concepts, this program will bring you an opportunity to experience an in depth yet practical approach to nutrition, a way of eating that will empower you with the knowledge to do your part in influencing your health, through how you feed your body. 

6 weekly live classes with Q & A begin with 2 weeks of preparatory instruction to set you up for success for when you begin the 4 week eating plan. You will receive a manual with guidelines, recipes and meal plans, access to a closed and private Facebook group for accountability, community and inspiration, plus individual email support as needed. Those participating for the first time will have a 50 minute individual zoom consult with Helen prior to the program to understand your health history and current lifestyle, to ensure that this is a good fit for you and to prepare you for the program.
