    • Fitness

Michelle Garbett, a holistic counselor and transformation
coach focused on emotional health and supporting mindset and mental well-being, especially for those with autoimmune diseases like IBD.

Michelle shares her personal journey of dealing with
ulcerative colitis for 20 years before making a career change.

After experiencing a severe flare-up in 2016, Michelle
sought alternative approaches like meditation and life coaching to manage stress and ultimately achieve remission.

Her successful experience with holistic practices led her
to become a holistic counselor and meditation teacher.

Michelle explains that holistic counseling allows for a
broader, more integrated approach to healing without strict industry regulations.

This approach enables her to incorporate various
modalities like meditation, soul coaching, and life coaching tailored to individual needs.

Meditation activates the vagus nerve and promotes the
relaxation response, aiding in healing trauma and reducing anxiety.

Michelle emphasizes that meditation should be personalized and encourages finding a guided meditation with a voice and style that resonates.

Michelle recommends starting small with guided meditations and gradually increasing the duration.

Consistency is key, and she suggests establishing a daily
routine and incorporating small rituals to signal the body and mind that it's time to meditate.

Michelle advises experimenting to find what works best,
whether it's morning or evening, and even suggests walking meditations for those who struggle with sitting still.

This episode of "Healthy, Not Hungry" offers valuable insights into the transformative power of holistic practices, particularly meditation, in managing chronic health conditions and promoting emotional well-being. Michelle's personal journey serves as an inspiring
example of how integrating mind-body techniques can lead to profound healing and positive life changes.
