Health Coaching

Health Coaching is a unique, exciting development in health and nutrition.

A health coach (or health counselor) is a detective, a wellness guide and a supportive mentor. Through working with me, you develop a deeper understanding of the foods and lifestyle choices that work best for you and implement lasting changes that will improve your energy, balance and health.

As a Holistic Health Counselor and Nutritionist, I have studied all the major dietary theories. Consider me your private detective who finds the clues and helps you discover what works best for you at this point in your life.

Dietitians and other nutritionists typically dwell on calories, carbs, fats, proteins, restrictions and so on. I empower my clients to create a happy, healthy and balanced life in a way that is flexible, fun and free of denial and discipline.

There are many other factors beside food that feed and nourish us. Some of the crucial components are relationships, career, home environment and spirituality. This is what I call primary food. When these areas are balanced, food per se plays only a small role.

When it comes to eating, one size does not fit all. I guide you to find the food and lifestyle choices that best support you and assist you in making gradual changes that will last a lifetime, enabling you to reach your health goals now and in the future.

We are all individuals who have different needs to live happy healthy lives. What is good for me may actually be ‘poison’ for you. Blanket statements like “dairy is good”, “fat is bad” are too general and could be absolutely wrong for your well-being. I work with the belief in bio-individuality and support you on your journey to good health by taking into consideration your unique needs, your lifestyle, your likes and dislikes as well as your background.

After 6 weeks I feel fine. I have lost 20 lbs and am sleeping much better.

I felt self-conscious, sluggish and like everything I was doing wasn’t helping me lose the weight. Birgit is a great support, teacher and coach. Her knowledge has helped me reach my weight loss goals and maintain a 100+ lbs pound weight loss.

One year after the program! I have many friends who did “diets” and gained back weight. Well, still over a year later, I’m going strong. From a then size 18 to now a size 6. Love this program!

I could not sleep through the night and woke up tired. But after three weeks on the program I am sleeping like a baby. Oh, and my hair is growing back and it is shiny. I feel good!
