Holistic Coaching

“Your body holds deep wisdom. Trust in it. Learn from it. Nourish it. Watch your life transform and be healthy.” ~Bella Bleue

We have come to a point in time where the Universe is asking us to evaluate some of our most basic core beliefs and to evolve from the place where we currently find ourselves into something greater.

The current state of our health care system, our education system and many of the other larger systems that run our daily lives are failing many of us. We are suffering, our children are suffering, and worst of all our planet is suffering. We are consuming our natural resources at an insatiable, unviable rate and the animals and plants that call this place home are falling victim to our neglect.

The reason for all of this imbalance, I feel, is due to an imbalance that we are refusing to address within ourselves. We cannot continue to ignore the fact that our outer environment is a direct reflection of our inner environment, and if you look at many places around the world you will see that environment is toxic.

To be the change that we want to see in the world we have to begin with changing ourselves and that means taking back our autonomy. When you give a person a fish they eat for a day, when you teach that person how to fish they eat for a lifetime. This is our path forward. We have to begin to take responsibility for our own choices in life, we have to learn how to heal ourselves and stop giving that responsibility over to people who don't even know who we are or what is going on in our lives.

Pharmaceutical drugs are not the answer to what ails you, but learning how to care for yourself in a holistic, sustainable way is. And that begins with learning WHO you are on an energetic level. We have been gifted so much wisdom from so many different cultures that it is astonishing that we find ourselves in the state that we are in.

We have at our fingertips a wealth of wisdom and tradition that has been passed down from witch dr.'s and shamans and we are neglecting it all because we have been conditioned to believe that there is only one way to heal.

I don't believe that, I will never believe that...and that is why my patients call me The Witch Dr. because I believe in the wisdom of the Earth, the plants and the spirit animals that guide us. I believe that we are first and foremost Energy and that Energy has an innate intelligence that filters down into our bodies and the physical plane on which we perceive life. It is the Energetic Plane that dictates the structure of our physical body and it is this very plane that requires our attention when we are struggling in life.

The Energetic Evaluations that I create for you are the basis for my Life Coaching platform. They are the manual for your life and they are the light that shines in the darkness that you find yourself in. When you feel lost there is wisdom there to show you the way. Please, don't ever believe that there is only one way to heal, because you are as unique as the constellations in the sky and the world needs you to show up and be the best version of yourself.

We are all in this together, and I am here to hold your hand as you venture through all that you came here to understand. As we elevate together into a higher vibration the world will once again become the paradise that it once was, and the world will reflect the transformation that has happened within us. And that my friend, is something that I am truly looking forward to experiencing.

If you are here today because you are facing some type of health concern and you are not receiving the type of support you feel you need, then you are in the right place. Our bodies are a collection of complicated systems that don’t always work together the way we want them to. And I know that it can be difficult to maneuver through all of the health information that you can get bombarded with on a daily basis as you journey through the steps that it takes to find your way back to health. So if you are feeling a bit lost and overwhelmed with where you find yourself right now, help is here.

My unique education (which you can read more about in the About Section) has allowed me to study the body from a wide variety of vantage points, which has given me a detailed understanding of the somatic structure of the human body and its varying systems. 

The Health Evaluations that I create for you are the basis for my Health Coaching platform. They are detailed evaluations based on constitution, observation and systematic pathology that gives us a clear picture into what imbalances are directly impacting your health.

We look to the ancient wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine’s Differential Diagnosis (Five Element Theory & Eight Principles Theory), Facial Diagnosis, Tongue Diagnosis and Ayurvedic Constitutional Analysis. All of this information leads us to a greater understanding of how your constitution, conditioned beliefs, habits and lifestyle are impacting your health.

For example, conditions of Excess Heat can cause Dryness in our systems resulting in pain, organ dysfunction, hormone imbalance and emotional turmoil. We often also see dysfunction in the body when our Qi or energy becomes stagnant due to the stress we experience in our daily lives. This can sometimes impact our digestion or our reproductive organs and we can experience symptoms ranging from IBS to PMS or infertility issues.

Our facial characteristics and the lines and colors that we observe on the face and tongue are a direct reflection of our internal environment. They can give us insight into organ system pathology as well as imbalances in our emotions that are causing us to behave in a way that is harmful to our body.

When we look to the Ayurvedic constitution of a person we can see how their body is straying from its original state of homeostasis. Are you constitutionally a Pitta type that has always been healthy, a little on the warm side and muscular, but now you are finding yourself holding on to extra weight and feeling lethargic, cold and unmotivated in your daily life? This could mean you are experiencing a Kapha imbalance and there are specific steps you can take to bring your Pitta energy back into alignment.

These are just a few examples of imbalances that you might see on a Witch Dr. Health Evaluation. Once I have consolidated all of this information, you will see a detailed path forward that is broken down into understandable action steps that gives you the power to begin making educated choices concerning your health. If your imbalance is due to past emotional stored trauma we might consider moving forward with a protocol that consists of removing stored energetic blockages from your physical body. If the imbalance is due to a lack of nutrition we might consider a Nutrition Evaluation who’s protocol incorporates organic nutraceuticals and herbal therapies that will help your body to heal from a lack of proper nutrition. If the imbalance is due to a lack of movement we might work on protocols that involve lifestyle changes and exercises that get your body moving again.

All of the protocols that you will receive through my Health Coaching Platform are created specifically for you. They are all unique and are custom tailored to fit your individual needs and lifestyle requirements as well as working with your Western medical doctor concerning any therapies or pharmaceuticals that you are currently taking.

Know that I am here for you, to listen to your questions and your concerns regarding your unique health care challenges. And don’t forget, there are many different things that can cause the body to come out of alignment, it is important to know exactly which area of your life is most out of balance because sometimes its the little changes that we make that can bring us back to ourselves again.

“When diet is wrong, medicine is of no use. When diet is correct, medicine is of no need.” ~Ayurvedic Proverb

It became horrifyingly apparent to me, after working with patients over the last 20 years, that most people are starving for nutrients. I love herbal medicine, don’t get me wrong, but getting patients involved in Nutritional Therapy has been one of the biggest game changers that I have ever witnessed in all of my years of practicing Holistic Medicine. 

We literally become the food that we ingest, and the body requires specific nutrients to produce the base substances that form the building blocks for all of the varying systems in our body. You are what you eat!  So if your diet is comprised of fast food and the cheapest possible, chemical laden, processed garbage that you find in the “center isles” of your local grocery store, you can be assured that your body is starving for nutrients as well.

I provide a couple of different options to choose from when addressing your nutritional concerns. You can choose one avenue or both to get the greatest benefits. The first option is receiving an Energetic Nutrition Evaluation, this test is performed either in my office or from the comfort of your own home. It entails evaluating the neurological systems of the body as well as the organs and glands to ensure that they are receiving the proper nutrients that they need to regenerate on a cellular level. Once I determine any deficient areas in your body I will test to see which nutraceuticals or herbal remedies bring the deficiencies back into balance. A protocol is then created for you to follow. 

The truly amazing thing about this type of test is that it is performed on the subtle energetic layer of the body, so in my opinion, this is the best preventative medicine out there because it detects imbalances in the system BEFORE they impact the physical body. I test for deficiencies caused by: emotional blockages; chemicals; heavy metals; bacterias; viruses; fungi and parasites. This test is performed every 4 weeks until the system stabilizes into a regular regimen where there are no longer any deficiencies detected. After this initial period, the tests are performed every 8 to 12 weeks. This type of therapy is truly what preventative medicine is all about.

The second option that you can choose is working directly on your diet and what you are ingesting on a daily basis. This therapy requires an Ayurvedic Evaluation to determine your core constitution as well as how your body is deviating from its constitutional homeostasis. This therapy is based on the energetics of food and the flavor and nature of the foods that you are eating. In Chinese Medicine this is known as the 5 Flavors and in Ayurveda it is known as the Rasas or 6 Tastes. For instance, if you are constitutionally a Kapha Type, which is composed of the elements of Earth and Water, your body will be brought into alignment by predominantly eating pungent, bitter and astringent foods. Your Kapha energy will be aggravated or brought out of alignment by eating sweet, sour and salty foods. In this type of coaching you will learn about the energetics of foods and what foods are best for your specific constitution. 

You can also visit my school, The Witch Dr. Way to find recipes, cooking classes and tips on eating with the seasons. Plants are truly magickal beings that teach us how to live a better life. If you have lost your connection with yourself and you’re yearning to find a way back to wholeness, this is truly one of the best ways to find yourself again.
