I practice a holistic approach to health and wellness, which means that I look at how all areas of your life are connected. Does stress at your job or in your relationship cause you to overeat? Does lack of sleep or low energy prevent you from exercising? As we work together, we will look at how all parts of your life affect your health as a whole.
My approach is not to dwell on calories, carbs, fats, and proteins. It is not to create lists of restrictions or good and bad foods. Instead, I work with my clients to create a happy, healthy life in a way that is flexible, fun and rewarding.
Together we’ll work to reach your health goals in areas such as achieving optimal weight, reducing food cravings, increasing sleep, and maximising energy. As we work together, you’ll develop a deeper understanding of the food and lifestyle choices that work best for you and implement lasting changes that will improve your energy, balance and health.
Integrative Nutrition® Plate
The Integrative Nutrition Plate emphasises the importance of local and organic produce, whole grains, high-quality proteins, plant-based fats, and water. It shows you how a plate should appear at mealtime and emphasises the importance of proportions and portion size. To complete the picture, the plate is surrounded with lifestyle factors that create optimal health: relationship, career, physical activity and spirituality. I’ll introduce you to some of the healthiest foods on the planet and teach you how to find what’s healthiest for your unique body!
Primary Food™
It’s easy to overlook all of the things that contribute to our sense of nourishment and fulfillment. It’s not just the food we eat that affects our health, but all of the other factors present in our daily lives. Healthy relationships, a fulfilling career, regular physical activity, and a spiritual awareness are essential forms of nourishment. When these “primary foods” are balanced, what you eat becomes secondary. I will support you in achieving all of your goals, from eating the right foods for your body to living an inspired, fulfilling life.
Bio-Individuality™
The concept of bio-individuality is the idea that each of us has unique food and lifestyle needs. One person’s food is another person’s poison, and that’s why fad diets tend to fail in the long run. Working on the principle of bio-individuality, I’ll support you to make positive changes that are based on your unique needs, lifestyle, preferences, and ancestral background.
Crowding Out
Many nutrition experts give their clients a list of foods to avoid and foods to eat, which explains why so many people are turned off by nutrition. My approach is different – by eating and drinking foods that are good for you, you will naturally have less room and desire for unhealthy foods. Simply put, you will “crowd out” the unhealthy food in your diet. This takes a little practice to make happen, but I will support you all the way.
Deconstructing Cravings
Cravings play a critical role in understanding what your body needs and shouldn’t be ignored. When you learn how to deconstruct your cravings and understand what they’re really telling you, you will be able to reclaim a sense of balance and harmony.
Testimonals
"Thanks Aurora, your impact is HUGE."
Aurora developed and facilitated a customised health cooking workshop for my step-son Jy, who was recently diagnosed with Irritable Bowel Syndrome, and I.
From the word go, the workshop had us engrossed and engaged, and was really fun and enjoyable. Aurora's knowledge is extensive, and the recipes we used were simply delicious and so incredibly nutritious.
I would highly recommend Aurora's workshop to anyone wanting to learn simple, and quick solutions to healthy cooking and eating. In a nutshell it was SIMPLY AWESOME! Thanks Aurora, your impact is HUGE!

"Aurora is Really approachable, and knowledgeable."
I found Aurora's workshop really helpful because now I have some great recipes that are easy to use, and taste good too. I also think Aurora should run her workshops at schools to increase awareness on the benefits of healthy eating.

“Aurora's professionalism is paramount to her but she makes you feel like you are part of the family, and I love that!”
I started on my holistic health journey 6 months ago with Aurora and I can easily say it is the best thing that I have ever done.
The knowledge I have gained is something that I will never forget, I used to just look at food as something to eat but now I look at it in a completely different way and I love that I do!I was also taught about gratitude's and the affect they have on you just by writing them down, or saying them out loud to yourself can completely change your frame of mind and how you feel.
This was extremely beneficial for me as I was constantly down in the dumps and doubting myself however this has since changed.If you are looking for a health coach I wouldn't go any further than Aurora, she is the best out there and I couldn't recommend anyone higher.
