A State of Becoming Consulting

Guiding you to whole health literacy.
The Problem:

Life moves faster than ever, which is leading to a dramatic increase in stress levels for many people. The physical stress on our body, mental stress on our minds, and emotional stress on our wellbeing create a cacophony of negative thoughts, unmanageable emotions, and physical aches and pains that we need to tackle to bring ourselves back into a healthy alignment.

Body

When you don't take care of your body, all aspects of your physical, mental, and emotional health can be affected.  People report feeling their hearts racing, being overly tired, or feeling hot and clammy.

Mind

The things we say to ourselves have a direct influence on our overall health. Negative thought patterns like, "I can't do this" or "I'm better than this, I should be doing something different" can make depression and anxiety worse.

Emotion

Emotions originate as sensations in the body.  If we're not able to process emotions, they can be stored physically. Some people describe this as feeling overwhelmed, losing all interest in daily activities, or getting angry.

The Problem

How can Joanne help?

A State of Becoming Consulting is a program that provides you with a skillset for achieving whole health literacy.  Joanne works with you to relax the body, focus the mind, and temper your emotions so that all three can act as one symphony, playing together on the path to vibrant living.

Body

Taking care of your body results in more energy, being able to breathe easily, and a feeling of physical peacefulness.

Mind

Focusing the mind allows you to be thrilled with what you have, be open to positivity, and to start reworking your thought patterns.

Emotion

Working through your emotions allows you to feel better about yourself, have a sense of accomplishment, and a general contentment.

The Solution:

Body, mind, and emotion are three equally-important aspects of your overall health and wellness. When you work with A State of Becoming, you learn tools to integrate each of these aspects of your being, and work towards becoming whole health literate- understanding and respecting each aspect of your personal health.

The Solution
The Approach

Periods of prolonged stress have significant impact on our bodies, minds, and emotions. We know this through the ACEs study, but the imprint can develop at any time. Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) are traumatic events in childhood like abuse, neglect, or household challenges on physical, mental, and emotional levels.  They leave imprints on you that can last a lifetime and increase your risk factors for long lasting health issues such as chronic disease. Your body, mind, and emotions express the trauma from these events even if you aren't cognizant of them.  Joanne helps you develop the skillset to eliminate negative feedback loops caused by these events. Armed with these tools, we can address the past and present disruptions to bring a positive future closer on your way to whole health literacy.
