Week by Week Overview
Each week covers a different topic. These have been carefully planned to enable you to make simple, practical and lasting changes in your life without being overwhelmed by them. Week by week more small healthy tweaks to your lifestyle will be introduced and you will understand exactly why they they are being suggested. You choose how much – or how little – you implement.
You are in the driver’s seat. You can immerse yourself fully and make more of the suggested changes or just add in a few and maybe bring in others at a later date.
Some of my one-to-one clients want to go all in, others want to take it a bit more slowly. It’s the same with those who have done this program.
In addition to this, some of the things suggested you may find easy, some a bit harder; some will resonate, others less so. Some weeks it may be easier than others. It doesn’t matter. If you have a wedding, a holiday, a big event, the whole program works around you.
Below is an overview of each of the aspects covered each week plus details of the bonus week.
Evaluate:
What gets measured gets done
Being able to monitor progress is exciting and important. During the first week, different ways to do this are covered – how many you use is entirely up to you.
We also discuss how to stay motivated, resources you may wish to use, what to expect from the program and how to prepare, both practically and psycologically.
HYDRATE:
Vital for optimum cell function
Most people don’t hydrate enough, leading to long term chronic dehydration. This can have a big impact on how we look and feel. The cells of our body just don’t function efficiently, which affects many symptoms commonly experienced: pain, headaches, backache, constipation, inflammation, even weight gain. When we are dehydrated our thirst signals actually decrease, so we are even less likely to drink hydrating liquids.
In week 2 we take a look at the importance of good hydration, the best ways to get it, things that interfere with it and how you can supercharge it.
Oxygenate:
Getting enough and using it well
Every cell in our body requires sufficient oxygen to perform effectively. Many chronic conditions and diseases as well as poor mental function and low energy levels are linked to insufficient availability of oxygen, for various reasons. Tips on how to enhance oxygenation by adding a few easy practices into your life are covered this week.
Eliminate:
Taking out the garbage
This module looks at how to improve elimination pathways so our bodies can detoxify well – essential in the modern world. We also discuss things that are not serving us health wise and hastening the ageing process and why it is so hard to let go of them – with tips on how to tweak things to make life bearable!
Assimilate:
You are what you absorb
Even if you eat a very healthy diet, there may be issues with good absorption, such as low stomach acid, poor bile production and gut issues. This module covers these in greater depth with tips to improve digestion and absorption.
recuperate:
Stress less, sleep better
A huge percentage of the population suffer from stress and anxiety and this can greatly impact all aspects of our health. Quality sleep is also essential and this week we look at some ways to help ensure you get deeper sleep and awake more refreshed.
Regenerate:
Optimising energy powerhouses
The number and effectiveness of our cells’ powerhouses, the mitochondria, reduces as we age. We can slow and even reverse this by adding a few practices each day that take very little time and pay huge dividends in terms of cell efficiency and our overall health and energy.
Accelerate:
Take it to the next level
The final week of the main program is a gentle detox, filled with healthy, nutritious, easy to digest juices, smoothies, broths, herbal teas and soups. This will accelerate the benefits and leave you feeling fantastic and ready to continue your health journey with energy and enthusiasm
Perpetuate:
Following the 8 week programme it’s time to see how far you’ve come in just a couple of months. This is where the time you’ve taken to evaluate in week 1 really pays off. You will be surprised at the changes in how you look and feel and how any annoying health symptoms are diminished if you have made the most of the tips given.
The benefits you gain will hopefully inspire you to continue with newly acquired health habits. We will look at various ways you can keep momentum going and other enjoyable activities you can build in to give you a ‘Blue Zones’ style life. We’ll also discuss supplements, technologies and other things you can do or use to give you some more cutting edge ideas for turning back your biological age.
