Meet our Health Coach Lili!

Hello all! My name is Lili Conner and I am a graduate from the Institute of Integrative Nutrition located in New York City. I am a certified Holistic Nutrition Health Coach. I am also a single mother of two small kiddos, a five year old boy and a two year old girl. As a health coach, I firmly believe we are given the resources to fully heal here on Mother Earth. If given the right environment our bodies would thrive and not struggle to survive. Every person is different, we refer to that as bio-individuality. What works for me, might be toxic for another human. I try to hear each client to the best of my ability, and guide them for what they need or the goals they want to reach. Recently I have begun diving into infectious diseases and how to help create a better atmosphere inside of the body to fight and defeat bacteria & viruses.

Outside of the nutrition and exercise aspects, I also take a holistic approach. For complete health and happiness it takes the mind, body, and soul to be aligned. I use a tool called the “Circle of Life” which is a great visual representation to show all aspects. We dive into spirituality, career, relationships, family, joy, finances, and much more. Sometimes we just need a gentle reminder brought to our attention for things to start flowing how we need again.

So why do YOU need a health coach? Great question!

How many times have you been to the doctor with a problem and they say “yes! You should lose weight. Here is a pill.” OR better yet “eat less and move more.” Yeah…that is all great and dandy. But how realistic is that one? A health coach is a guide on the side to formulate a plan specific for you. Not only will I make a plan to help you get to your goals, I help keep you accountable with multiple 1 on 1 sessions through the month, we also take a look at your mental health & habits in general. Health Coaches help to bridge the gap between doctors and clients. We put in the time needed to truly help guide and change habits when needed. A health coach will help you make better general choices that fit your lifestyle. Health coaches identify your greatest areas of struggle and provide the support needed to overcome those struggles, while creating a new balance for you.

If this is something that interests you or you feel you need a little extra love on your journey, call or come up to Rebekah’s in Clarkston!

Live!

Love,

Lili

HOW WILL CLEANSING YOUR BODY INCREASE WEIGHT LOSS?

Should I Detox Before Starting My Weight Loss Program? Most of you are aware of the many health benefits of losing weight; many have heard that you should detoxify your body before you begin your program. What are the real facts?

The process of detoxifying your body before beginning any weight loss program is strongly recommended by all in the health field, many believe it will greatly improve the results and increase weight loss. Here are the benefits of following 14 to 20 days cleanse before beginning your program. No worries if you have already started your work-out routine, it is never too late to cleanse the body of impurities.

Remove Toxins – Detoxing will remove the harmful toxins and heavy metals from your body especially from the liver.

Jump start weight loss – The detoxification process done by itself, will cause you to lose weight before you start the actual diet.

Improve Digestion of Food – By cleansing your body it will adjust to better digesting of the new improved food that you are going to feed it.

Rid Body of Sodium – The detoxification will also rid your body of the harmful storage of sodium.

Increases Nutrition Absorption – By cleansing your body in advance of starting a diet, your body will be able to absorb all of the nutrients from the food you will be consuming thus making you feel much more energetic on a low calorie diet.

Rebalanced System – Your gastrointestinal tract will be cleansed during the detoxification stage which will assist in rebalancing the system.

Hunger Pains – You will adjust much quicker to a low calorie diet. Hunger pains are lessened, if your body is detoxified before starting the diet.

So it is not a question of if you should detox before starting your protocol, but what you should use for this cleansing. Rebekah’s Health and Nutrition supplies the purest approved detox products on the market today.

Defining Ketosis

What is Ketosis?

By Dr. Andrea Eenfeldt

The “keto” in a ketogenic diet comes from the fact that it makes the body produce small fuel molecules called “ketones”.

This is an alternative fuel for the body, used when blood sugar (glucose) is in short supply. Ketones are produced if you eat very few carbs (that are quickly broken down into blood sugar) and only moderate amounts of protein (excess protein can also be converted to blood sugar).

Ketones are produced in the liver, from fat. They are then used as fuel throughout the body, including the brain. The brain is a hungry organ that consumes lots of energy every day, and it can’t run on fat directly. It can only run on glucose… or ketones.

On a ketogenic diet, your entire body switches its fuel supply to run almost entirely on fat. Insulin levels become very low, and fat burning increases dramatically. It becomes easy to access your fat stores to burn them off. This is obviously great if you’re trying to lose weight, but there are also other less obvious benefits, such as less hunger and a steady supply of energy.

When the body produces ketones, it’s said to be in ketosis. The fastest way to get there is by fasting – not eating anything – but nobody can fast forever.

A keto diet, on the other hand, can be eaten indefinitely and also results in ketosis. It has many of the benefits of fasting – including weight loss – without having to fast.

How do Salt Lamps Work Actually?

Salt lamps do not generate negative ions themselves. They are “hygroscopic,” which means that they attract moisture… humidity… airborne water molecules; it is a natural property of sodium chloride (hygroscopy). Since they do not generate the negative ions, they need a heat source (in this case, heat from an incandescent bulb) to accelerate evaporation, which does produce negative ions. In more humid regions, an unlit salt lamp will eventually “cry,” even creating puddles of water at its base. It is this evaporation that generates the negative ions, which are beneficial to our health.


Besides Ions, What Else are Salt Lamps Used For?

Numerous customers have purchased our salt lamps as a beautiful light source “ they can be sold as living energy sources which emit a healthy glow, ranging in color light-waves of oranges, yellows, reds and apricot. The ambient light creates a soothing ambiance that helps with relaxation, stress, attention deficit and more.
