Case Study: Shaun
Shaun came to us with fatigue and anxiety, she had to talk herself into her day most days, and while she was amazing at presenting to the world as having it all together, much of that was because she learned to hide her internal conversations quite well.
Shaun worked with us in our 20-week program and experienced:Â
   *Release of anxiety: no more convincing herself to get out of bed!
Great improvements in energy AND she learned how to advocate even more for the things which feed her!
   *Sleep: amazing
   *Digestion: great
   *Food: Shaun had always just ate what she grabbed, with us, she learned to love being present with her food and really expanding into fueling herself.
   *Weight: she released extra pounds without even thinking about it.
   *Joy: She finds she is loving life, joyful, playing at what she wants to and has structured her life around what she is here for...can'’t ask for much more than that!
Shaun dove in, did the work, committed to...
There's a quote by Candace Pert, author of Molecules of emotion that says:
“Body and mind are one, the body is the actual outward manifestation in a physical space of the mind”
Really powerful words, especially when we start to contemplate how that relates to us.
If I am exhausted, if I'm tired, if I'm carrying extra weight, if I have headaches, digestive problems, low libido, thyroid issues, adrenal issues, autoimmune issues, heart disease, arterial plaque, diabetes, we've been taught to contemplate those as isolated events associated with one organ, one system.
Which is why we rabidly dive into dietary plans, be they autoimmune or super restrictive for weight loss. We dive into supplements...this one has been said to lower Leptin levels, this one adjusts blood sugar, this one is a master life-altering antioxidant.
Or we dive into visualization….visualizing ourselves healed….but we never change the patterns to allow it to be so.
Rarely do we take time to understand th...

One way we could personify stress is separation. Which is of course why it can't just be regarded as a hormonal or biological mechanism because it is so much more than that.
As with most events inside of our bodies, stress is not just physical. Now you may be thinking, oh, it's mental and it's emotional and the answer is yes, but.
It is the accumulation of event after event after event where we get separated from our powerful self, our true self, our magnanimous our vibrant, our beautiful, amazing, truthful self.
Now, that separation comes in such sneaky ways. It is emotional and mental separation and physical all at one time.
This is the dynamic key to healing, because in the world of healing it is being compartmentalized by the mind of the healer as to which one of those they're most akin to trying to solve.
So to one, it is an adrenal problem, to another, a vitamin issue, yet another, a gut issue, and then to another, it is the wounds of your childhood, the traumas....

Someone pointed out to me how seriously we take our cell phones, how we will rabidly search for a charger the minute we get a 15% battery life warning.
It becomes our first priority.
So the curiosity is, we've all been there, yet we don't apply the same principles to our body. We don't pay attention to the 15% warning lights.
Those warning lights of:
Feeling tired consistently, remarking to yourself, God, I'm exhausted
Headaches
Joint pain
Gut issues
Not tolerating foods anymore
Being bitchy
Having difficult cycles
Having terrible PMS
Having a horrible time in menopause
Lack of libido
Poor sleep quality
Feeling depressed
Feeling anxious
Having a foggy mind
Hormonal problems
These are all the 15% warning messages from your body. And yet we treat them like they're just a nuisance from a stupid system that can't possibly know what it's doing.
We take painkillers, we take antidepressants, we try fad diets thi...

“Thank you Dr Julie, you saved my life”
One of the big impacts in my life of having lived so many years exhausted before I really got serious and did something about it was the memories that were created in that time.
Everything from that time has me tired. Those were the formative years for my kids, and their memories of me are going to be Mom was working, she was grocery shopping, she was cooking, she was cleaning, she was bitchy and she was tired.
I spent those years figuring the exhaustion would get better when they just got a little bit older, when my practice got to a smooth place, when we took a vacation, or had a free weekend. I always had these conditions I was placing on the outcome. It will get better when…. and the truth is it never got better.
It never got better until I did something significant, until I altered more than one variable. I tried diets, I tried exercise programs, supplements, yoga, meditation, even hormones.
The point being it didn't get better until I understood what the real ca...
I remember the day when I really realized what my conversation with my body really was.
Here I was, taking on a crazy schedule, regarding everything as my responsibility, Â caretaking for all the people in my life and doing it all fast.
By constantly pushing, I was continually telling my cells and systems “Oh, by the way, you're just one big disappointment to me” and on top of that, my inner voice constantly noticing the flaws .. fat, cellulite,  wrinkles, headaches, joint pain…all seen from the viewpoint of “How can you act this way when I work so hard for us”
This was my message to my divine creation on a daily basis.
Maybe it sounds familiar to you?
See, I really truly believe that our body absolutely has always done exactly what we've asked it to do. Now our ego will distort that and say, I never asked my belly to get big, I never asked my knees to hurt, but we have to take a broader look and really assess the situation for what it is.
We have absolutely asked ...
I once had a patient who lived her life trying to avoid pain. One extreme example came when she had a car accident from a left-hand turn and instead of thinking, well, gosh, I need to look better or I need to slow down, I need to pay attention. Her solution was I'm just never going to go places where I have to make a left turn if I can avoid it.
Instead of owning it, she adopted a complicated, exhausting method as her response. In essence, she built a contraption to avoid feeling pain.
I know it sounds like an extreme and rather odd example, but this methodology is something I see applied all the time when it comes to being tired, inflamed, in pain, foggy-headed, disconnected and out of touch.
We build “contraptions” of thought and belief in our life to make it seem like this really isn't so bad. “See, I've adapted to it, which means it's not impacting my life anymore because I've worked my entire life around it”.
So women tell me that they just no longer do things with friend...
