Insights from a Holistic Health Coach
/The true “KEY” to healthy, happy, permanent weight loss that no one can sell you on the shopping channel? Your thoughts!
Alexandra Geneva is a Certified Health Coach who specializes in supporting individuals who’ve struggled with food or weight to end that struggle for good and cross off their highest goals in health and happiness. Through her healing work with clients across the country she has seen that, though diet culture convinces many of us that our greatest obstacle to health is a lack of discipline, the truth is, “willpower” is always limited and finite; only a true alignment between our goals and our thoughts and beliefs around those goals can create the consistent action we seek.
Alexandra loves guiding clients to find the best nutrition, fitness, and accountability solutions for their individual goals and lifestyles. HOWEVER, she wants people to know that, in this age of information abundance, most of us already know enough to create meaningful change, and the solution we need most, which will make all our other solutions work more easily, happily, and sustainably, is a focus on mindset. Because what ultimately dictates our choices? our thoughts and beliefs about those choices. And trying to change to new patterns with old, limiting stories is setting ourselves up for difficulty and doubt.
So how can we understand the prescriptive role of our thoughts? It starts by asking questions like:
Do you feel genuine enthusiasm for your healthy behaviors or do you feel obligated?
What are the stories you’ve told yourself about your body and weight in the past?
Do you truly believe your efforts will result in your goal?
What thoughts do you go to when you don’t feel motivated?
What’s usually the conversation in your head that talks you into abandoning your goals?
Do your chosen rules ever feel mean or exhausting?
Do you know how to truly satisfy an emotional hunger cue?
Alexandra Geneva and the Feed Your Freedom Coaching mission:
With a BA from Columbia University, a Health Coaching Certification from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, a Yale University Coursera Certification in the Science of Wellbeing, and years of successful coaching cases, Alexandra uses specialized methods in habit and mindset change to help clients move beyond their obstacles and reach their highest health goals with joy and support.
Alexandra’s deep commitment to her clients’ successes stems from her personal experience, wrestling throughout her teens and twenties with yo-yo dieting and emotional and disordered eating. It was only through her extensive search for the right nutrition, exercise, and mindset tools, and support from a health coach, that she was able to heal and enjoy a forty pound weight loss as well as a healthy and happy relationship with food and body. Alexandra’s transformative experience with coaching is what motivated her to get certified herself – to save others the years of private struggle and help them attain the lives they want faster with an experienced partner.
