Happy International Women's day!
Today I want to devote this blog to share some useful information for my lovely women readers who are struggling with hormonal imbalances (like PMS), infertility, period issues and cystic breast or ovaries.
Since the beginning of this year, I decided to start paying more attention to what I eat and drink as a part of my spiritual journey. I was only focusing on hydration (drinking water) before, but as of this year I decided to also change my diet significantly. To be honest, my main motivation of these dietary changes was not health, environment or animals. Even though I care about those things, none of them motivated me that much to make significant changes😔. I watched many documentaries about this topic, they all made sense, but none of them really shifted me.
My main motivation has been the guidance that I get through my sessions. I was hearing these messages so clearly over and over so I decided to take the leap of faith and test them out. I changed my diet and after testing the outcomes, I can say that I have started to experience profound shifts in my healing abilities and personal strength.
During this period of change I have also been reading heavily on the topic of nutrition, trying to understand how food can heal us and, as Rumi says, “What you seek is seeking you”, I ended up attracting a dear client who is building her Culinary Nutrition business 🙏🏼 and she recommended to me a book.
Woman Code by Alissa Vitti
Woman Code is written by holistic health coach Alissa Vitti to show women how to maintain their health and vitality with a food-based program to rebalance their hormones. The writer herself suffered from polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), and was able to heal herself through food and lifestyle changes. She wrote this book as a guide to help women who suffer from similar diseases.
She focuses on a 5-Step protocol and explains how you can implement them to your daily life:
Stabilise your blood sugar
Nurture your adrenal glands
Support your organs of elimination
Syncing with your menstrual cycle
Engage your feminine energy
Why am I sharing this book?
For me the scientific information related to food was invaluable in the book, especially first 3 steps. I found the feminine energy section a bit basic, however it is nice to see that she is mentioning topics like vision boards, manifestation and meditation in a hormone balance book 😀
Just after I read the book, one of my previous clients reached out to me to ask about polycystic ovaries and I shared the book name with her. And here I share it again with you readers in the hope that it sparks curiosity in you around mproving your health.
I want to share my deepest gratitude to my client Natalia for opening my soul to be more mindful on what I need.
In my experience the struggles related to our purpose are the hardest ones, but by dealing with them they help us to grow and thrive the most…I see this pattern in all my client stories as well. Here is Natalia’s story...
“My health journey started three years ago when I was diagnosed with gluten sensitivity. I decided to start listening to my body and start learning about the impact that gluten had in my body and mind. After 12 years of non-stop being a full-time working woman and 5 years of being a full-time mom, I realize that I needed more time for myself and decided that cooking was the best way to spend my days. When I cook, I shut down the outside world and suddenly magic happens and stress levels go away. I feel that I am in control and I am following my gut creating nurturing foods… I have also learned that with the right foods anxiety and impulsive over eating naturally vanished.”
Now Natalia is helping women learn how to nurture their bodies through food; right fats, the right vegetables and the combinations to make the best of each day. If you are based in Luxembourg, Natalia is sharing her knowledge through boutique, cozy cooking workshops at her home. It is a perfect Covid friendly activity where you can learn how to cook and eat healthy. Feel free to email me for her contact details.
It is through our struggles that we initiate the healing path. I uncovered my gifts as a healer in order to create profound change in my life and along the way I have learnt how to share it with others to help their transformation journey.
I found purpose in my life and dedicated myself to share what I have experienced to help others in their path to purpose. Healing is in simplicity and it is within you… When you are ready, I am here to take you on your unique healing journey…
