  • Do you have trouble losing weight even if you restrict calories, eat well and exercise?

    Have you ever noticed you’re hungrier and crave unhealthy foods when you don’t get enough sleep? There’s a reason for this and I explain it in this episode!

    You’ll also learn:

    How sleep deprivation affects your hunger hormones

    What cortisol does when you’re sleep deprived

    How high cortisol causes poor sleep

    How cortisol affects the thyroid which leads to weight loss resistance

    I don’t help people specifically with weight loss. But some of my clients have struggled to lose weight and by helping them lower cortisol and sleep better, the weight naturally comes off.

    As my client Jaipal said after working with me for two months, "I realized I had dropped 15 lbs of extra weight!"

    If you’re sick of not sleeping well and being unhealthy, my team and I can help. In the Complete Sleep Solution program, we address both the body and the mind and how they affect cortisol and sabotage your sleep.

    Mineral imbalance, hormones, neurotransmitters and more can also cause insomnia. We look at all of these possibilities to find the root cause of your insomnia.

    Schedule a consultation today to get started with the program so you can get 7+ hours of uninterrupted sleep in 6 months or less.

  • When I suddenly couldn’t sleep in late pregnancy, I made a lot of mistakes that made my sleep even worse. I struggled for 2 years before I finally started sleeping better. And then it took me a couple more years to consistently sleep 8+ hours a night.

    In this episode, I tell you the mistakes I made so that hopefully you don’t make the same ones! I could have gotten better so much quicker if I knew then what I know now.

    The way to sleep better is to find the imbalances in your body that are keeping you awake. This was the missing piece for me for 2 years and it’s likely the missing piece for you, too!

    In the Insomnia Insight program, my team and I use 4 functional lab tests to find the imbalances in your body that are keeping you awake.

    The tests look at gut health, liver function, hormone balance, cortisol, heavy metals, minerals, neurotransmitters and more to find exactly what’s causing your insomnia.

    No more feeling out of control and helpless because you don’t know why you can’t sleep!

    Then we give you a holistic plan (diet, lifestyle, and supplements) to correct those imbalances so that you don’t have to guess at supplements or resort to sleeping pills.

    You also get a 30 minute private session with a sleep coach to get any questions answered so you know the steps to take to sleep better soon.

  • Experiencing emotions is part of being human. But we can have trouble feeling emotions, especially ones that society has told us are bad, such as feeling sad or angry.

    When you try to ignore or suppress your feelings, they don’t go away. They get stuck in your body and cause unhealthy patterns and cycles that can be hard to break. They can also bottle up and come out when you don’t want them to.

    In this episode, I talk about:

    Why you want to feel your feelings

    How to feel your feelings in only 10 minutes with 4 simple steps

    A tool called the 5 minute rule to help move past negative emotions quickly

    In the Complete Sleep Solution program, we use functional lab testing to find the imbalances in your body that are sabotaging your sleep.

    And, as you can see from this episode, we also help with mental stress so it doesn’t keep you awake.

    It’s a body and mind approach that will make sure you get 7+ hours of uninterrupted sleep in 6 months or less.

    You don’t have to see a therapist for the mental part and a health practitioner for the physical part. You can get support for both in the Complete Sleep Solution program from a coach who understands what it’s like to not be able to sleep.

  • If you can't sleep 7+ hours a night without interruption, your gut isn't healthy. And doing a stool test such as the GI Map will give a lot of insight into what's causing your insomnia.

    In this episode, you'll learn:

    how the GI Map looks at gut health and shows why you can't sleep. the 3 top gut issues that impact sleep. how an unhealthy gut leads to other imbalances in the body that sabotage sleep.

    Emmanuel just started the Insomnia Insight program and he's already sleeping better!

    “When I saw I have H Pylori, a lot of things started to make sense. Believe it or not, many functional medicine doctors I visited in the past didn't detect it using the other tests they use. I quickly started reading about what HP does and how it results in decreased absorption, inflammation, etc. It now makes sense why none of the other treatments I tried in the past had any effect. I have been taking the supplements for a week. For the first time in years, I had 3 nights in a week where I slept 7 hours straight. So something right is definitely happening. I learned not to raise my hopes too fast but I feel something is changing in my gut.”
