Nutrition & Lifestyles Coaching
San Diego Personal Trainer and Nutrition & Lifestyle Coach:
Everyday situations impose certain physical, as well as mental/emotional demands to our bodies. These stressors threaten our overall homeostasis (yin/yang). These physical aches and pains that we sense in the physical body are 3D images of our mental, emotional and spiritual beings. If ignored and left untreated, these imbalances lead to the chronic dysfunctions that most of society is suffering from.
If you are overweight and/or suffering from chronic pain, becoming more aware of your lifestyle and what you do/put into your body, will allow you to once and for all discover your sources of pain and begin taking the appropriate steps for yourself to begin living a grounded, fluid, blissful and calm existence.
At EastWest Healing & Performance, through individualized nutrition coaching and lifestyle coaching we seek to heal the person, and not the disease!
Within our nutrition coaching and lifestyle coaching programs we apply many various assessments and lab tests to first identify all major sources of pain and dysfunction (musculoskeletal, hormonal, visceral, and emotional). Then through the use and principles of corrective high performance exercise kinesiology, nutrition coaching & lifestyle coaching, and other holistic tools within your path, we create a step by step, individualized plan to increased health and vitality.
By taking a holistic approach to health and vitality, we will not only educate you, but empower you towards your wellness goals.

10 Quick Holistic Health Overhaul Tips—Plus a Bonus Podcast from Functional Medicine Pioneer, Dr. Timmins!
- Your are what you eat and when you eat
- Get to bed by 10 and rise no earlier than 6 a.m. (physical repair is between 10pm-2am and mental repair is between 2am-6am)
- Drink ½ your body weight in ounces of water per day
- If it wasn’t here 10,000 years ago, don’t eat it
- If it has a shelf life than it is a nonfood and should not be eaten (it takes more energy for you to metabolize and assimilate a nonfood than that food actually provides you with)
- If it is white, don't eat it (salt, sugar, flour, pasteurized milk)
- If it is clear, don't eat it (jello's, juice, etc). Bacteria grows around it and most clear fluids are sugar water.
- If you are not eating for your metabolic type, it is like putting unleaded gas in a diesel engine
- If you can't eat it, don't wear it!
- Avoid eating food heated by microwaves, and avoid standing near them! (Learn more about the dangers of microwaves here!)

The way you feel each and every day, is a reflection of how you take care of yourself. The food that you put into your body is what you are made up of, as well as what is going to energize you throughout the day. Improving ones nutrition through metabolic typing will ultimately lead to a life of increased energy, being able to maintain your ideal weight, eliminate sources of pain, conquering indigestion, bloating, and allergies, increasing the vitality of your immune system, prevention of disease, increased metal focus, and ultimately improving your entire lifestyle. “Seek not to treat the disease that has the person, but to heal the person that has the disease.” - Paul Chek
