Alzheimer’s researcher Dr. Dale Bredesen coined the term “36 holes in the roof” to describe chronic illness. There are many factors influencing your health conditions, and we need to address them all. There is no single pill or protocol that will help you get well. We need to find all the holes in your roof, and plug as many of them as we’re able.
You are uniquely you. Your physiology, and your symptoms are the way they are today because of a lifetime of unique factors which are singular to you. You do not fit into a formula. You are not a statistic. You are an individual with a particular history, body, and lifestyle. You also have goals and dreams that are unique to you. We work with all of these factors to create a custom-made plan for you.
The health of your gut determines your overall health, and 70% of your autoimmune cells reside in the gut. Interestingly, the biggest factors that influence the health of your gut are diet and lifestyle. To improve your immunity and overall health, we will focus on ways to improve your gut health.
Endometriosis is a disease where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus, causing pain and/or infertility. It is a chronic disease associated with severe, life-impacting pain during periods, sexual intercourse, bowel movements and/or urination, chronic pelvic pain, abdominal bloating, nausea, fatigue, and sometimes depression, anxiety, and infertility.
According to the World Health Organisation (WHO) endometriosis affects roughly 10% (190 million) of reproductive age women and girls globally.
The variable and broad symptoms of endometriosis mean that health professionals do not easily diagnose it and many individuals suffering from it have limited awareness of the condition. This can cause a lengthy delay between onset of symptoms and diagnosis. At present, there is no known cure for endometriosis, and treatment is usually aimed at controlling symptoms.
The HELP-Endo Program is a group coaching program, with weekly live stream sessions with me along with a work folder full of information to support your journey.
You will learn about how your hormones, blood sugar balance, gut health, immune function and brain function all interlink to impact your endometriosis and overall health.
All group live stream sessions will be 90-minutes long. Prior to the program starting, you will be sent your folder full of information, which will become your guide and journal for the program.
I will be hosting weekly 90-minute group live stream sessions on Saturdays from 2pm to 3:30pm. Recordings for all sessions will be made available.
The health of your gut determines your overall health, and can have a big impact on your endometriosis. Interestingly, the biggest factors that influence the health of your gut are your diet and lifestyle. We will discuss leaky gut and the health of your microbiome (bacteria that reside in your colon). We will look at ways to improve your endometriosis symptoms by improving your gut health.
We’ll gently move into learning about the importance of removing the major inflammatory foods from the diet and the impact of balancing blood sugar — the foundation of hormone balance! You’ll learn exactly what to do, and why! We will also discuss your body’s hormonal system, demonstrating how to support your body working for you, and discussing how to get your hormones into balance.
Your endometriosis symptoms are also related to the health of your immune system. In endometriosis, when tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus, your immune system becomes the first line of defence. I will give you a bird’s eye view of what the immune system looks like and who are all the players, plus how your immune system plays a role in your endometriosis symptoms. You will gain a better understanding of “what’s going on in there”. We will also discuss the real heroes for our immune system and fabulous treatments for supporting our immune health.
Your brain is the driver of your body. Supporting your brain health can be very helpful for improving endometriosis systems. You will learn about how your stressors, your sleep, and your mindset can all impact your symptoms. I will teach you the latest science on which nutrition and lifestyle changes can positively impact your brain. Although science still has a long way to go to understand the full complexities of the brain, what we know today is immensely helpful for us to improve brain health through diet and lifestyle.
Our final session together will be a time to reflect on our learnings and the impact the HELP-Endo Program has had on us. We will also look at ways to support you as you take your next steps on your healing and wellness journey.
