Why Functional Health?
Your health is about more than what you eat.
Functional health coaching takes a whole person approach, looking at how nutrition, sleep, movement, stress, relationships and other lifestyle factors work together to influence how you feel.
Rather than taking a one size fits all approach, we consider your individual health history, symptoms, lifestyle and goals to help identify areas that may need more support.
At Younique Balance Health Coaching, this approach is built around five foundational pillars of health and wellness:
Pillar 1:
Nutrition & Diet
Nutrition is a foundation of health. The foods you eat provide the energy and nutrients your body needs to support metabolism, blood sugar balance, hormone health, digestion, immune function and so much more.
And in midlife, adequately fueling your body matters more than ever.
Pillar 2:
Rest & Sleep
Our bodies not only need sleep, they need rest.
Poor sleep quality has serious consequences on metabolism and health. Our bodies are not meant to always be on the go, they need time to slow down, repair and recover.
Let us help you prioritize sleep so you are able to function optimally day in and day out.
Pillar 3:
Movement
The human body was meant to move.
The body not only needs adequate nutrients to thrive, but also needs adequate movement and stimulus in order to handle those nutrients properly and function optimally.
Pillar 4:
Stress Management
Chronic stress can take a real toll on your health. Over time, it can affect sleep, digestion, blood sugar, hormones, immune function and energy, and may contribute to a wide range of symptoms and health concerns.
Building tools to manage stress and support resilience is an important part of feeling your best.
Pillar 5:
Relationships & Community
Building and maintaining strong, healthy relationships can enhance your life and strengthen your immune system.
Having a sense of community improves longevity.
Social interactions are a vital part of self care.
