After applying these to my body on a daily basis and making some minor changes to mine and my family’s life we started to notice major changes in our vitality, energy and immune systems.  Our bodies’ energy was not constantly being used to fight off and deal with extra stresses on the body.  We actually were starting to open up the communication with what the body was telling us would work and what wouldn’t work.Now don’t get me wrong this took about a full year to implement across the family and we certainly had challenges along the way.  I can say after 9 years I’ve reaped the rewards and we have seen the benefit in our children, which is very fulfilling as a parent to know that you are providing a healthy and productive environment that your children can grow and express their genetic potential.

 

This is one of the major concepts that we teach in Holistic Lifestyle Coach Level 1 and is the first thing I work on with my clients.  I first identify what their dream goal and legacy is and then I need to balance out their energies.  This allows them to then have the vitality to work on their rehabilitation, weight loss goals, etc etc.  The six foundation principles are essential in restoring health to the human body.  I would remind you of this CHEK’ism.  You cannot have disease in a healthy body if you work on healing the person that has the disease and not work on treating the disease that is in the person.

 

When I coach my clients on the foundation principles the typical reaction is “oh yes, I know this ….I should sleep more….I should drink more water….. I should eat better food”.  Inherently this is logical and they aware that they need to do it, but for some reason it falls into the too hard basket for most.  In my opinion this is just an expression of the market place being over-whelmed by media and internet information.  Also a restriction to doing the 6 foundation principles is that it sounds so simple how could that work?  My response is usually pulling out testimonials, offering personal experiences of how it’s changed my life and my family’s life and being a representation of what I teach.  I have not had an injury, illness or sickness since applying these 6 foundation principles on a daily basis.  What I do as a CHEK Practitioner is problem solve and identify solutions with action points and process goals that can be implemented on a weekly or daily basis.

 

Most clients come to me when they have tried traditional methods of medication, physical therapy, chiropractic, osteopathic and many other modalities.  My clients are very surprised that I offer a money back guarantee.  I take this concept from the Eastern philosophy of only paying your doctor or healthcare worker when they are achieving health and wellbeing in your body.  The tradition was that you would pay your herbalist and Chinese medical doctor only when you were healthy like the way we pay a small levy to our insurance companies.  When you got sick you didn’t pay the doctor or herbalist as they have not done their job.  When the doctor had resumed your health and vitality then and only then would you start to pay for them to keep you healthy for the future.  This is a preventative approach rather than a reactive approach that we see in the traditional medical community.  My clients have never worked with a holistic coach, doctor, physio, chiro that works from an ethical standpoint that if I can’t help you with my skills and professional approach then I will give you your money back so that you can work with a different approach and find a solution.  I am in the business of long term problem solving and not just a short term solution or palliative approach that reduces the symptoms in the short term but never addresses the long term causality or etiology of a problem.

 

This approach encompasses the word, Holistic, which for me means all parts coming to one.  Our body is a system of systems, a cybernetic organism, which means the body is in constant flux with our environment, thoughts, hormones and actions of daily life.  It baffles me that people will try the same approach over and over again when the first approach did not work yet they try dieting, exercising, taking medication and still have the symptom reoccur.  It sounds very much like the definition of insanity which is doing the same thing over and over again whilst expecting a different outcome!

 

If you have been battling with a health and wellness issue that has not been addressed and resolved by the traditional approach maybe it’s time you think outside the box.  Instead of tackling the problem “face on”, to use an analogy, “trying to walk through a wall with no outcome”, how about we take a step back and look at the problem from an holistic angle and walk around and surround the problem.  This is what we call “Surround the Dragon” which is where we use multiple tools, modalities and healthcare professionalism to support and draw up a plan of action.
