What is an Integrative Health & Well-Being Coach?

A health and wellbeing coach partners with you to help improve your overall health and wellness. They provide guidance, support, and encouragement to help you set and achieve goals related to your physical, mental, and emotional well-being.

This may include nutrition, exercise, stress management, sleep, and other aspects of a healthy lifestyle. You are unique and should be treated as such. The coach works with you to develop customized strategies and offers accountability to help you make positive changes in your life.

How can a health and wellness coach help me?

The Holistic Root with Maria Tabone: Health & Well-being Coach

Your health and wellness should always be your top priority. The real challenge often lies not in knowing what needs to be done, but in actually taking action.

Formulating a plan, taking those initial steps, and holding oneself accountable can be daunting. Whether you're contending with a chronic condition, facing mental health struggles, striving for weight loss and improved nutrition, or simply feeling unsure of where to start, I am here to guide you through. Together, we'll work towards sustainable behavior changes, empowering you to lead your best and most fulfilling life, regardless of your starting point or goals.

How long will it take to achieve my goals?

Typically, doctors devote around eighteen minutes to each patient. Establishing enduring behavior change and cultivating new habits usually requires a minimum of three months. When facing more significant hurdles, such as significant weight loss, addressing anxiety or depression, or managing chronic conditions, a timeframe of six months or longer is needed.

What is Ayurveda and how can it help?

The Holistic Root with Maria Tabone: Ayurveda Sessions

Ayurveda is a traditional system of medicine that originated in ancient India over 5,000 years ago. The term "Ayurveda" is derived from the Sanskrit words "ayur," which means life, and "veda," which means knowledge or science. Thus, Ayurveda can be translated as the "science of life."

The primary goal of Ayurveda is to promote and maintain physical, mental, and spiritual well-being. It is based on a holistic approach to health and wellness, taking into account the individual's unique constitution (prakriti), which is determined by the balance of three fundamental energies or doshas: Vata (associated with air and ether), Pitta (associated with fire and water), and Kapha (associated with earth and water). 

According to Ayurvedic principles, imbalances in these doshas can lead to illness, and the goal of Ayurvedic treatments is to restore the balance. This can be achieved through various means, including dietary changes, herbal remedies, yoga, meditation, massage, and lifestyle adjustments.

Ayurveda also emphasizes the importance of living harmoniously with nature and seasonal rhythms. It recognizes that individuals have different needs and susceptibilities, and treatments are often personalized to suit the individual's constitution and specific health concerns.
