What is HLP?

The choices you are making create your reality, either consciously or unconsciously.  You are manifesting your potential right now which means you are also choosing your state of health. Free will and the ability to make choices for health and well-being is the ultimate privilege and freedom. 

Lifestyle is a result of your beliefs.  These beliefs reflect your priorities, habits, conditions and particular perception of self.   Lifestyle can either bring you into alignment or detract from the potential inherent in your life’s purpose.  If your body begins to feel chronically fatigued, stressed, shows symptoms of breaking down and aging then your lifestyle is NOT in accordance with your true purpose. 

Seven critical principles of conscious lifestyle are:  thoughts, managing stress, breath, diet/hydration, sleep, right exercise and creating a non-toxic environment.  Through our comprehensive, practical and personalized program, we will explore the relationship of these factors in your own life and address appropriate changes to maximize your vitality.  We will work together as a team to establish a framework for helping you make honest, informed and conscious choices in your daily life.  

Nutrition is the fuel for your life each experience.  The intake of energy improves your overall wellbeing or it decreases it.  Our coaching program takes a holistic overview of your lifestyle and diet to address imbalance and maximize your wellness potential by creating an individualized eating program. This system is  NOT a temporary fix!  This is a lifestyle change to rebalance your body for a lifetime of feeling great!  Most nutritional diets are generic fads created with one-size-fits-all techniques which do not examine the unique needs of each individual’s genetic and biochemical make-up.   Our protocols are based on the scientific research known as Metabolic Typing.

Every individual has their own biography and set of life circumstances.  The principles of metabolic typing applies this idea to the functioning of the physical body.  Each individual has a unique biochemical make-up based on two factors: genetic inheritance and the accumulative effects of nutrition.  Every cell in your body has its own unique vibration.  Therefore, the daily needs and demands of the body are completely unique from individual to individual.  This also means that nutrients (the fuel you are putting in) have different effects on different bodies.  Nutrition either maximizes or minimizes your genetic DNA’s potential and possible evolution.  The body is not a linear system and it is important to understand that the body functions as an energetic field.  You cannot change/influence one part of the body, without effecting the whole. 

The energetic field of the body is like a spider web: once a vibration is set in motion, the vibration effects the other side.  As a culture, we are inundated with advertising that attempts to trick us into seeing it otherwise by exaggerating the success of the latest diet technique, the newest pharmaceutical fix -it pill or the latest exercise fad to isolate trouble spots.  The assumption that the body works in this way is a deception.  These generic systems make money on keeping you from the truth and hoping that your lack of knowledge and responsibility to healthy and conscious dietary choices will keep you sick.   The sad truth is that generic systems are limited, detrimental and possibly even lethal to your health.

What is a session like?

As a practical, individualized program, we will examine all of the factors of right lifestyle and health.  Our initial overview will look at making important changes.  We will also have you fill out a series of intake forms to discover your metabolic type and address any imbalances occurring in the systems of your body.          

We will continue to focus our program in the areas of highest concern and bring your knowledge up to date on the real facts concerning health.  For example, we will take a look at topics like:  What kind of soil was the food grown in?  What kind of quality of food and life did the animal have that now I’m going to eat?  Why is Organic SO much better?  Do I need vitamins?   Why do I need to eat good fats?  What type of water do I drink and why? How is stress affecting my weight? Why should I get to bed by 10pm?  Is my exercise program wrong for my body?

Most importantly, our program will also discuss the importance of  spiritual nourishment and fulfilling the energetic needs of the body in a holistic context.  This program is a journey into self-growth, healing and optimizing your health potential.

Ascension Therapy© perspective:

One’s service to the world is often revealed in the universal synchronicities in your life.   At some point on my path, I asked these questions,   “What keeps showing up in my life?” and “What am I being asked to look at more deeply?”. Lessons involving grounding, health and honoring the body were there over and over again in my life .  I found myself being guided to the lives of individuals (light workers in particular) who were giving wonderful service to others, but also found they were living in physical bodies wrecked with imbalance, dysfunction and even disease.  What a mess!  It seemed that the general mentality was that this state of imbalance was normal!  It was implied that disregard of one's body was just par for the course. Was this right?  Was the body a mistake?  Why was everyone so eager to abandon the body for the loose definition of being "spiritual"? What a learning curve!

I’m here to tell you that the body is meant to be healthy, vital and empowered at the same time as you are evolving spiritually. 

How did this work? Simply, I began testing certain principles.  This involved a disciplined approach to eating quality foods in appropriate amounts, exercising in functional ways, finding balance with stress relieving practices and especially revamping my thinking process.  I made the commitment to invest in the relationship I had with my body instead of viewing it as a burden or trying to escape to “somewhere better”.  My life moved forward in immeasurable, blessed ways.  The quality of my health improved as well as the clarity of my mind.  I noticed that the practice of relating to the body actually brings a deeper quality of Awareness to the spiritual dimension of life.   I was also guided to teachers who were living examples of this embodied potential.  I absolutely know it is possible to navigate this realm of experience using the body as a vehicle for transformation.

We are spiritual beings evolving through this lifetime and yet simultaneously, we are also biological beings evolving the body with us.  We are in physical form and have the honor of caring for this temple. Being in a body is part of the great design and it is NOT a mistake that we are in one!  Not caring for the body is called “being ungrounded” which creates unhealthy thoughts and fragmented actions. Enhancing the bodily connection improves awareness and the means to live more fully from the totality of the self.  It grants Consciousness a novelty of experience that cannot be simulated without the body and its senses.  The cosmic design is to challenge each of us in order to stimulate our soul to evolve and grow.  The body is a great gift for this awareness.  When you make your health a priority, then the body’s ability to carry you to new mental, emotional and spiritual heights is maximized.  Refinement of the senses allows each of us to access the inner dimensions and connect to our own unique healing, psychic and energetic capacities. The body acts as an anchor and as a threshold into these multi-dimensional experiences.

Every cell has its own vibration that can harmonize with universal intention.  Therefore, every cell equally has its own nutritional needs to serve this great function.  To radiate your light to its truest height, you need to care for the body all the way down to a cellular level.  The nervous system is the communication pathway of the cellular body.  This network of meridians or energetic pathways directly affects the overall state of body and mind.  Stressors from physical, metabolic, psychic, spiritual, or environmental circumstances interfere with functional health.  Inertia or blocked pathways create dysfunctional patterns in the body’s matrix which in turn creates instability in its structural integrity.  Things start to break down!  You may start to have postural problems, aches, low back pain, injury, etc. The struggle to continually force your depleted body to adapt to these circumstances without giving it proper care to do so, completely robs the body of  its essential life force energy.  To prevent depletion, make sure you are giving your body organic, clean food and drinking clean water, taking time to rest and restore, exercising, cultivating an active spiritual practice and receiving body or energy work to heal and uplift your system.

What symptoms can be helped by a nutritional program? 

The human body does not work in a linear way.  It is a multidimensional system based on a collection of variables unique to each individual.  Illness occurs as a dramatic wake-up call from your body.  Often enough, most folks who become ill have been running on empty, ignoring the responsibility of proper care for the body and thus, gets run down by all of the imbalances in their system.  Not so suddenly, they experience symptoms that cause them discomfort and pain and which they now want the “magic” doctor or pill to fix.   Only when our bodies send more dramatic signals, do we seem to finally listen.  Holistic nutrition is about teaching you how to take care of your body’s fundamental homeostasis before there is a health crisis.  We treat the whole person and the underlying causes of imbalance, not just symptoms. However, by working with this protocol, you will re-establish your health’s foundation and redress  symptomatic issues you may be experiencing.  Some side effects of right nutrition may be renewed vigor, increase in energy, weight balance, improved mood and the ability to free yourself from a stressed life and transform it into one that is a true expression of your divine potential.  Remember:  we specialize in total wellness! 

Clients cite improvement with the following conditions:  Allergies,  asthma,  headache, irritable bowel syndrome, chronic fatigue, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, food sensitivity/intolerance, digestive health (heartburn, bloating, gas, indigestion), anxiety, stress, depression, high blood pressure, low sex drive, hormonal imbalance, p.m.s., skin rashes, yeast and fungal infections, mood fluctuations, depression, ADHD, immune system disorders, insomnia, organ problems, menstrual pain, premenstrual syndrome, sinusitis, nervous system imbalances, cholesterol, high blood pressure, arthritis and inflammation, etc.
