Creating Habits That Stick

In this post, I dive deeper into habits: creating new habits and how to actually make them stick. I hear from so many people that they generally know what they should do, it’s just that they’re not doing it. This is not because you’re a failure but rather because behavior change is a skill that needs to be developed. If you’re feeling stuck putting things into practice and taking action, I’ll share more about how to uncover your personal blocks and how you can learn the skills and tools you need to successfully change and transform.

Connecting to Your Why

Having a hard time making behavior changes that stick? The first step is connecting to your big WHY. So often when we start going down the path of changing our diet, our behaviors, or bringing in lifestyle interventions, we get caught up in the "doing" part. But really, one of the most important pieces in creating lasting habits and behavior changes is understanding why you're even doing these things in the first place.

In this post, we’ll go deeper into connecting to your why and how this allows you to look beyond just the external factors to make sustainable and aligned changes.

Your Functional Timeline and the ATMs of Health

When dealing with chronic illness, it’s important to investigate the “root cause” of what’s going on in the body. Often times treatments for autoimmune disease involve medications or interventions to manage or suppress symptoms, but they don’t always dig down to the root to see what’s going on at a deeper level. When we’re working in functional medicine and looking at things through a functional nutrition or functional medicine lens, it really is all about identifying the root cause of disease and understanding how your personal history influences disease expression. The most important tool in the functional medicine toolkit is the functional timeline. This tool allows us to put our presenting illness or symptoms in context with our entire life, and helps to identify the roots of illness to move towards resolution. In this post, we’ll look at the functional timeline and the ATMs, or the antecedents, triggers, and mediators of health!
