Learn from two practising GP’s and Lifestyle Medicine doctors.

When it comes to health, there are so many conflicting ideas it can be hard to know where to start. Should you prioritise your diet, your exercise regimen, your mental well-being, or perhaps something else entirely? And how on earth do you do this without getting completely overwhelmed amongst the stressors of daily life?

We’ve got you.

As practising GP’s and Lifestyle Medicine doctors, we’ve experienced first-hand what it’s like to feel utterly perplexed when it comes to knowing where to begin to reboot your health.

When patients come to us, they often:

  • Feel utterly exhausted

  • Believe that no matter how hard they try with weight loss efforts, food seems to stubbornly cling to them

  • Feel as though they haven’t quite felt the same since having children

  • Are experiencing gut challenges such as bloating and IBS

  • Wonder if they need to go on a detox

  • Feel like they’ve lost their identity, vitality and confidence

  • Wonder where their metabolism went

  • Have no clear explanation for why they feel the way they do, other than the demands of daily life

  • Have that niggling feeling that there could be more to their life.

Yet, for these symptoms to resolve, we need to find the root cause. The most effective way to do this is with a full body and mind reboot, which is why we developed this course.

Across 10 weeks you’ll learn:

  • An approach to whole body health that is based on science from two fully qualified medical doctors

  • The importance of anti-inflammatory diets, phytonutrients and fasting

  • How to nurture your gut health for overall well-being

  • Key macro and micronutrients you need in your diet

  • How to eat for better mental health

  • How to create your personal health inventory

  • Which cooking methods best support food's nutritional value

  • Strategies to improve sleep quality

  • How the effects of stress shows up as physical symptoms

  • The significance of the vagus nerve

  • Techniques to enhance stress resilience and heal the nervous system

  • Suitable exercise routines tailored to your needs

  • An understanding of the science of addiction, and methods to break it’s tricky cycle

  • Ways to cultivate deeper connections in your life

  • How to completely reboot your body and mind for ultimate health

  • And so much more.
