Health Coaching combined with the power AI to optimise your wellbeing by looking at your epigentics.
Using the Power of AI and Shae your virtual health assitant to measure our epigenetic expression and optimise your biology for better health & wellness.
The single most important priority we have to ourselves is to own our health & wellness.
Well Hello there and welcome to the first of blogs where I look to encourage deeper conversations and cultivate awareness around health and wellness and how health coaching might support you to living in optimal wellness 365 days , 360 degrees of your life. Look Good. Feel Great. Love Life. Mind. Heart. Body. Spirit.
Health is the ability to adapt and self self-manage in the face of life’s challenges; to have agency and control over our story. Yet for many of us, in the face of the ever-increasing demands in our own lives, our minds and thoughts are scattered; our personal energy reserves are overtaxed, there is a frequent sense of overwhelm and seemingly precious little opportunity to re-energise, rebalance & restore.
Spring is an excellent time for renewal and a fresh start - we can take back control of our whole person's health and well-being. This begins with the active pursuit of activities, choices, and lifestyles that lead us to holistic health - in essence, preventative lifestyle medicine. Personalised preventative medicine looks to nurture all aspects of our wellness - physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, social & and environmental health. Practically this looks like nourishing our bodies with a good diet, exercising regularly, managing stress, getting adequate sleep, forging strong authentic connections, having a spiritual practice, and finding inner peace and purpose.
If you are unsure of where to start or need support - Shae - the world’s first virtual health assistant is a great place to start. As an endorsed ph360 and integrative Health Coach and Shae Wellness provider, I am passionate about helping individuals live their best lives. ph360 is a personalised health assessment that takes into account your genes, environment, and lifestyle to formulate treatments and prevention strategies based on your background, conditions, environment, and state of health. Using the power of AI, 15 layers of science, and data from years of scientific research, your personalised health profile is created to support you in achieving sustainable health. Through your phenotypology it understands your unique brain function; dominant hormones and neurotransmitters to assist in the development of your natural strengths, communication style, and support habit formation to achieve your goals.
Recommendations include the foods to eat; exercise best suited to your physiology; through to optimising your chronobiology, optimising sleep & and productivity, so you are cycling through periods of stress & and activity and rest and recovery - helping you to find your “flow”.
I am not suggesting an AI tool as the panacea for all your wellness but I think its insights are profound. In the same way that completing a genetic test can provide huge insights into potential metabolic challenges, genetic traits & disease risk & susceptibilities - ph360 provides enormous insights into which genes have and are actually expressing themselves based on your current environment and how to address this from a lifestyle perspective in terms of diet, exercise and lifestyle.
With these results and recommendations - we are able to find positive solutions and changes that you can implement that WILL yield positive results.
How does one learn to ‘be well’? How do we unlearn behaviours that make us unwell? Most chronic illnesses today are preventable through lifestyle change. I support my clients with integrative health coaching that acknowledges the client's stage of change and increases the importance and confidence to increase readiness to change. It's a collaborative journey, about staying on your client's agenda, through deep listening, without any judgment to uncover untapped self-awareness and support behaviour change.
The health coach’s job is not to come up with the solution, but to support the client to find their own way. Through the health coaching process, the client can tap into their existing strengths and abilities. They can seek and accept knowledge on current health science that supports their unique health agenda and goals. It is an empowering mode of support that gives ownership back to the client. Instead of being told what to do, the client is supported to figure this out for themselves with the assistance and expertise of the health coach. The health coach walks beside the client and supports them as they navigate the ups and downs of their journey towards a more healthful life.
Mā te whakarongo, ka mōhio
Through listening, comes knowledge
Mā te mōhio, ka mārama,
Through knowledge, comes understanding
Mā te mārama, ka matau,
Through understanding, comes wisdom
Mā te matau, ka ora
Through wisdom, comes wellbeing.
Yours in Health
