Do This Before Changing Your Diet
One thing I’ve realized after being in practice for many years is that every person that comes to see you may be at a slightly different stage of their willingness to make a change in their life… This means as a practitioner it’s our job to meet people where they’re currently at to enable them to begin to make their way up the healing ladder... And since a persons diet and nutrition is one of the most important things that an individual needs to get right in order to heal their body or achieve any of their health and fitness goals it makes sense to customize that based on the person across from you...
