I am a business owner, and as such, it has been challenging for me to know how to balance being "super woman," a woman who works a full-time job successfully, loves her family well, eats well, exercises, has other healthy relationships, and does everything "perfectly." (Well, that doesn't exist!) However, in our striving to live life well, our health and emotional livelihood can sometimes become unbalanced. This was my case a year and a half ago when I had gone through a very difficult break up, and subsequently, a very stressful work situation. My adrenals and thyroid were out of whack, so much so that my primary care physician wanted to keep testing me to see if I should go onto medication. Instead, I went to see Elise...and began a learning journey of listening to my body, what's good for it, and what it actually needs. (It was very different than I had anticipated.) From then on, I began to be much more balanced in all aspects of life, and I am a much healthier person emotionally and physically! Here are a few other miraculous things that have happened: I no longer "crash" in the afternoons or weekends. Previous to seeing Elise, my body was missing essential nutrients and around 4:00 p.m., and on weekends, I would become so exhausted that I couldn't do anything after work. This limited my desire and ability to exercise and maintain healthy relationships. Through changing my eating patterns to what my body needed (which is different for each person), based on the testing Elise performed on me, and taking her recommended supplements, my body has dramatically healed. Not only that, but previous to Elise, my bloodwork showed that my thyroid was borderline problematic. One year later, I retook the same tests with Elise, and then blood tests with my primary care (to confirm Elise's findings). My tests came back extremely positive: My adrenals were back in the "safe" zone, and my thyroid was completely normal! I am so thankful for how Elise's expertise has changed my life and helped me learn how at least to attempt to be "super woman." Thank you, Elise!
