Nutrition
Nutrition is a fundamental influencing factor in all aspects of health. Nutrition and diet do not necessarily mean the same thing. Diet is what one eats, but nutrition considers what happens inside the cells as the nutrients influence cellular function. We must consider the effects that nutritional factors have on influencing all disease and health processes.
What is a Certified Nutrition Consultant Practitioner?
A Certified Nutrition Consultant (CNC) is one who provides guidance pertaining to the building and maintenance of nutritional well-being.
Such counsel may include:
- Recommending food selection and preparation.
- Recommending food supplements (vitamins, minerals, enzymes, glandular concentrates, proteins, essential fatty acids).
- Educating clients about the benefits of a sound nutritional program to encourage the body to heal itself.
- Evaluation of their client's food intake, usually over a given week. Particular attention is paid to the proportions of protein, fat, starches, sugars and fiber consumed.
- Designing a program specifically for each client taking into consideration such factors as height, weight, age, sex, level of exercise or physical activity, dietary goals, food preferences, sensitivities to specific foods, and dietary habits in respect to their diet and nutritional deficiencies.
The main focus of nutritional counseling?
- Ultimately, the cells in our bodies are built from the raw materials we eat. The more suitable our food choices are to our specific requirements, the better cell structures we can build.
- Since every person is bio-chemically unique, individual nutritional imbalances and weaknesses must be assessed.
- Katie will introduce new dietary habits, incorporating the latest nutritional breakthroughs, but it may be difficult to achieve optimal health through food alone. In such cases, Katie is trained to design personalized dietary supplement programs.
- Environmental pollution, metal toxicity, micro-organism imbalances, and food sensitivities are among other factors that must be considered in constructing a nutritional program.

Dowsing
Dowsing is a technique for observing the motion of a variety of tools such as a pendulum, bobber, or rods when posing questions that can be answered by accessing one's intuition, subconscious mind as well as Universal Mind. Such tools increase sensitivity to receiving feedback to questions that go beyond an individual's three-dimensional senses. Dowsing can be used in many ways to help make your path through life a little smoother.
Reiki
Reiki is a type of subtle energy work that allows the flow of energy from a limitless source (God Force) to a person via the Reiki practitioner. It is a powerful yet gentle energy that can be channeled to yourself as well as to others just by intention.
When the flow of Life Force Energy is disrupted, emotional or health problems can occur. Imbalances can be caused from many situations that occur in our lives, such as emotional or physical injury and trauma, negative thoughts and feelings like fear, worry, doubt, anger, negative self-talk, nutritional depletion or toxicity, destructive lifestyle and relationships, neglect of self and lack of love for self or others, and from emotions that are not expressed in a healthy way.
Benefits of Reiki healing treatments:
*Promotes deep relaxation and aids the body in releasing stress and tension *Accelerates the body's self-healing ability *Helps with acute injuries and chronic problems *Helps relieve pain *Removes energy blockages , bringing the body into balance and harmony *Supports the immune system *Raises the vibrational frequency of the body
When we are relaxed and stress-free, we are able to restore our natural ability to heal. Long term practice of whole-body Reiki can restore the general condition of the body. It opens the energy channels and allows the body to deal naturally with stress and toxins and helps us cope with anxiety and depression.
When a person is in good health, regular Reiki therapy can increase the body's built-in defenses. This manifests itself as confidence and a positive outlook on life.
Reiki can provide additional energy required to recover from illness. A Reiki healing session can induce an extremely comfortable state of being that can bring positive alterations in the client's consciousness.
It can be used as a complementary therapy as it complements and enhances the health care the patient receives in the hospital or from other health care practitioners. Reiki healing complements Eastern and Western medicine. It is beneficial to the health of women (even while pregnant), men, children and is also excellent for animals, plants, and for water.
Reiki healing energy is a tool for use at any moment, any time, anywhere, for on-the-spot stress release, pain relief, and quick energy.
