Try Holistic Based Weight Loss practices to slim down and keep it off. It is very important to focus on proper nutrition and exercise, not just one or the other. And one of the secrets to keeping that weight off is establishing sustainable lifestyle changes that you can stick with– and that includes things beyond what you eat and how you move.
In some cases, the failure or success of your weight loss program depends more on your daily habits than on just the food choices you make.
The things you do as part of your daily lifestyle habits can impact how much food you eat, how much you move throughout the day, your stress levels, your water intake, and your sleep habits. These 5 holistic based weight loss practices are activities that are simple to incorporate into your daily schedule. Pick one and attempt to practice it this week. If it goes well, pick another one. Try mastering one skill at a time, so you don’t get overwhelmed.
The 5 Holistic Medicine Weight Loss Habits:
Start keeping track of the calories in the drinks that you take in. There are specific drinks, in particular, that can have a big impact on your total caloric intake and on the kind of food choices that you make every day. For example, juices, sports drinks, sweetened teas, sodas, kombucha, and flavored coffee drinks are often packed with sugars and excess calories. In some cases, these drinks boast that they are healthy due to the fact that they provide vitamins; however, they also offer a lot of unusable ‘fat making’ calories. Your best choice is to drink water. You can even make flavored water in the house to replace your high-calorie sodas and sweetened teas.
Believe it or not, the quality of your sleep impacts the food choices you make during the day. It can also affect the variety of calories you consume from soda or coffee drinks. Use very simple tips to sleep better so that you get a full night’s rest and wake up energized and ready to take on your daily activities.
For instance, do not charge your phone beside your bed. Keep it in another area of the house when you sleep. And try to maintain a routine sleep schedule– even on the weekends. This assists your body to learn to sleep and wake with less effort. And finally, lower the temperature in your bedroom at night. A cooler room might help you snooze better..
If you are drinking plenty of purified water on the daily and have your sleep hygiene on task, the next item on the checklist is to work on increasing your physical activity. You can start by creating a well-rounded exercise routine with different kinds of physical activities. Holistic doctors are huge advocates and great coaches when it comes to helping people make lifestyle changes for long term weight loss. They can provide you a plethora of information about how to build a body that is strong, lean, and flexible.
If you do not belong to any fitness center or need help finding exercise classes, consider using an enjoyable and easy online exercise to get the activity you need. You can also look into other activities like cycling, trail riding, tennis, hiking, water sports, or ballroom or hip hop dancing, for example.
But keep in mind that consistency is key. If you find yourself avoiding sessions, your program may be too extreme. It’s much healthier and safer to do moderate or an easy workout regularly than it is to do extremely hard exercises once in a while.
Your day-to-day workout is really crucial. However, if you go to the gym for an hour and spend the rest of the day laying on the couch or sitting in a chair, you are probably doing more harm than good for your body. Find out how to increase your everyday activity level so that you burn more calories with NEAT- Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis.
One way to ensure you are getting adequate daily activities is to invest in a physical fitness tracker. These devices track your day-to-day actions, and many of them give you reminders to get up & move when you’ve been sitting too long.
Surround yourself with helpful people and healthy reminders that will assist you to keep your plan on track. You can do this by connecting with individuals who eat well and work out at the office or in your neighborhood. Cook healthy meals together or set updates to exercise.
You can also subscribe to healthy messages online and in social media. Researchers have found that daily tips can have a big influence on weight loss success.

Not feeling well and looking for help with your condition, diagnosis, or symptoms that won’t go away no matter what you have tried? Our holistic biological health coaches can help you! Our coaches teach you how your body works, what the underlying cause of your condition or symptoms are, and how to fix and address them using long-term solutions that are data-driven and that work!
Our holistic biological health coaches have a deep understanding of advanced functional testing and genetics testing, along with much experience in complex cases.
Our biological coaching team works with you to empower and teach you how to understand and interpret your lab results, what your results mean, how they are connected to your health conditions or symptoms, and most importantly, what to do with the information, how to put protocols together based on your lab results, and when to reorder your various labs to track progress.
You will become your own healing master learning how to navigate the healing process, how to modify your protocols, when and how to detoxify your organs and cells from the toxins discovered on your lab results. You will learn the importance of tracking your assessment forms and symptom sheets and how to troubleshoot your healing process.
In addition, you have the opportunity to learn how to understand YOUR genetic blueprint – Our coaches are trained in the field of epigenetics and understand implicitly that YOU are in control of your own gene expression and how your genes either work for or against you. If you choose to add genetic testing into your program, your genetic blueprint information can be used not only to help drive your plan of action for healing, but also it can be used to understand your body’s unique nutrition, lifestyle, sleeping, eating, and physical activity needs are so that you can optimize once you are healed.
Get help from our functional nutrition coaches who understand that there is no ONE diet that is right for everyone. Our nutrition coaches work hand in hand with our biological coaches so if you need any lab work done or specific protocols that would require supplement protocols, you have a team working on your behalf and your nutrition coach would make recommendations for which other team coaches would be able to help you.
Your coaches will teach and empower you to learn how to determine and navigate your diet modifications which are decided based on your extensive intake forms, history, and your lab data that your coaches may want to order for you. Based on all of this information, they will teach you what foods to eat and not eat according to various conditions and why.
Your functional nutrition coach will help you learn what substitutes you can use when there are certain foods you may need to stop eating for a period of time, how to put your meals together based on your dietary needs per your lab data, how and when to incorporate gut repair protocols, and what lifestyle modifications you want to address based on your labs and your health conditions.
Nutritional coaching can be a great tool by itself or combined with coaching from our biological coaches. You can schedule with either our biological or nutrition coaches and they can help you get started and make recommendations as needed.
Many people who have successfully mentored with our nutrition coaches have had past issues such as:
Mindset, past and present traumas, and limiting belief systems are some of the biggest barriers to healing, so much in fact that gene expression and biological ‘engines’ of the human body can change for the worse because of it.
In the many years, we have been working in the field of holistic medicine, helping people who have tried everything else with no success or little success, we have discovered how great of an impact our thoughts, beliefs, and past and present trauma, and chronic stress can be to the human body, mind, and spirit.
The rate of recovery and healing for those who place emphasis on creating new neurological pathways to imprint new and healthy mindsets and belief systems in how they perceive themselves and the world around them is greatly improved when the psychological aspect of mindset and integration of mind, body, the spirit is addressed through repatterning of the mind and body neurology.
By removing barriers discovered from traumas, mindset, and conscious/unconscious patterns that are not congruent for healing, health, and vitality, you set yourself up for the best outcomes in your healing journey. Healing only occurs when the physical, emotional, and mental barriers to healing are removed.
Therefore we incorporate mind, body, spirit integration work into our programs and in doing so, we see exponential increases in positive outcomes with our clients. We have put together the most comprehensive ‘whole person’ approach in the world, and this is why our results are so successful.
Our Emotional Processing, Stress Release, & Neurological Repatterning coaches work with you to create new neurological connections, anchor new neurology, and habits, and show you how to become aware of any conscious or unconscious belief systems that may be holding you back from healing and total health.
You are welcome to try one or two appointments to see what you think. We typically recommend a minimum of 6 sessions to make an accurate assessment of how this type of modality is working for you.
Here are some of the modalities our Emotional Processing, Stress Release, & Neurological Repatterning coaches use for brain and body repatterning:
Breathwork is more than just a simple exercise of intentional breathing. Specialized breathwork techniques are used to facilitate major transformation and healing by encompassing a wide range of therapeutic practices that are extremely powerful in providing immediate relief for pulling people out of fight or flight (the amygdala hijack we teach about in Part 2 of our Mastering Trauma Masterclass).
This vagus nerve activation through breath work activates the rest/digest (parasympathetic nervous system), stimulates healing, reduces blood pressure, reduces the cortisol stress response, regulates hormone and blood glucose activity, and heart rate variability (the biological stress response). It rewires the body for self-regulation of the nervous system in a manner that optimizes the body and creates resilience in times of stress.
Yoga breath therapy allows you to disconnect from the mind chatter, mind racing, and negative self-talk and reconnect with your body your energy. From this elevated state of awareness, you are able to facilitate healing, growth, and expansion. And if you are looking for some expansion of your body/mind/spirit awareness, then this type of breathwork can be nourishing and can facilitate the next layer of peace, love, gratitude, connection, clarity, and insights.
In the many years, we have been working in the field of holistic medicine, helping people who have tried everything else with no success or little success, we have discovered how great of a damaging impact our thoughts, beliefs, and past and present trauma, and chronic stress (the fight or flight response) can be to the human body, mind, and spirit.
By becoming aware of how to regulate our own nervous system, and resolve traumas, mindset, and conscious/unconscious patterns that are not congruent for healing, health, and vitality, you set yourself up for the best outcomes in your healing journey. Healing only occurs when the physical, emotional, and mental barriers to healing are removed.
