In addition to the training at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, I am also fully trained in the methods developed by Hanna Kroeger, a pioneer in natural health and holistic healing. She created a system that identifies seven physical and seven spiritual causes of ill health, with the belief that true health requires harmony between the body and spirit. Below is a breakdown of the training I received:
7 Physical Causes of Ill Health:
-
Parasites: She believed that parasites in the body could lead to various health issues. Parasites can drain energy and cause digestive problems, among other symptoms.
-
Worms: Similar to parasites, worms can infest the digestive tract and other parts of the body, leading to malnutrition and other physical ailments.
-
Bacteria: Harmful bacteria can cause infections and disrupt the body's natural balance, leading to illness.
-
Viruses: Viruses are responsible for many common and severe illnesses, from the flu to more chronic conditions.
-
Fungi: Fungal infections can affect the skin, nails, and internal organs, leading to a range of health problems.
-
Toxins: Exposure to environmental toxins, chemicals, and pollutants can disrupt bodily functions and contribute to chronic diseases.
-
Poor Diet: An unhealthy diet lacking in essential nutrients can lead to a variety of health issues, including obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases.
7 Spiritual Causes of Ill Health:
-
Negativity: Negative thoughts and emotions can manifest physically, leading to stress and other health problems.
-
Fear: Persistent fear can weaken the immune system and contribute to various illnesses.
-
Karma: Unresolved karmic issues from past lives or actions can manifest as physical or mental health problems.
-
Psychic Attack: Harmful energies or intentions from others can affect one's health, leading to unexplained symptoms.
-
Hexes and Curses: Negative spiritual influences, such as hexes or curses, can cause ill health by disturbing the body’s energy field.
-
Spiritual Entities: The presence of negative spiritual entities or attachments can drain energy and lead to physical and mental health issues.
-
Blocked Chakras or Energy Flow: Imbalances or blockages in the body's energy centers (chakras) can disrupt physical health and lead to disease.
As a Hanna Kroeger practitioner, we are trained to identify these issues through saliva analysis and believe in addressing both physical and spiritual aspects to achieve complete healing. Her methods often involve the use of herbal remedies, energy work, prayer, and other natural healing techniques.
My education has equipped me with extensive, cutting-edge knowledge in holistic nutrition, health coaching, and prevention. Drawing on my expertise, I work with clients like you to help make lifestyle changes and choose health-promoting ways that produce real and lasting results. You will develop a deeper understanding of food and lifestyle choices that work best for you, improving your energy, balance, health, and happiness.
Each session will leave you feeling inspired and motivated. We will talk about things beyond food, seeking to bring balance to important elements of your life such as love and relationship as well as career and money. I will personally and carefully guide you to make simple, small changes that transform your life.
