wellness your way; MORE LIFE LESS MEDICINE
ready for a truth bomb?
the way you feel is not your fault. All our hormones are interconnected and “talk” to one another, and when one is off balance the others are also imbalanced
We are not wired for stress. Our brain still has the same stress responses it had 10.000 years ago. When humans were cavemen, they had to have razor sharp stress responses to escape the tiger that was chasing them. It was a matter of survival. That stress response was the difference between life and death. But once the stressor went away, and caveman escaped from the tiger the stress response died down. The stress hormones went back to normal and reset until the next stressful incident.
Today, our brain is wired to respond to stress in the same way. The rapid heart rate, the dialated pupils, we are primed for survival. Our stressors might be different but the response is the same.
And when the body is in stress mode, when our brain perceives stress, its survival instinct is to turn off all “non essential” functions. When our stress signal is on, our body puts all non-essential to survival at that moment functions on the back burner. These include digestion, hormone function, and detoxification.
Unfortunately, all these day to day stressors don’t subside, don’t abate. Lives today are filled with modern ‘psychosocial” stress that continue day in and day out. As a result our brain keeps sending the stress message and our stress hormones remain elevated long term.
THIS IS WHY WE BURN OUT, and feel exhausted, angry, tearful, wired, hungry, crave sweets, anxious, depressed and the list goes on and on and on.
what is the solution?
The solution is to reset your stress response. To help your hormones balance themselves naturally. Because all hormones ‘speak to each other. And when one is off balance, it is a cascading effect with other hormones too.
That’s the layers of YOUR onion that we need to peel away.
Which hormones are imbalanced in your system? What are your triggers? What are the root causes? How can we address those to get to the inner layer?
that’s where the precision nutrition fingerprint comes into play
what do these have in common?
All these have their origins in HORMONE DYSFUNCTION
THYROID DYSFUNCTION
INSULIN RESISTANCE
DIABETES
METABOLIC SYNDROME
real people. real proof.
I heard about Misha through a friend who she’d helped with ezcema. I needed help sorting out my hormones, gut health, issues surrounding sleep & anxiety. Misha felt like a very safe warm hug- she was kind, patient and thorough. she offered incredible insight into the workings of the human body, specially the gut and how it connects to the mind. We worked together over the course of 3 months on healing my gut which has resulted in better sleep, more manageable anxiety and a heightened feeling of being well again.

I am so very grateful to Misha for gently steering my life in such a positive direction. I look forward to our sessions; have benefitted immensely from all her nutrition related advice and truly value her insights and inputs on how to lead a more meaningful life. One of the key things she has helped me to change is the negative voice in my head that always said “I should be doing…” Thanks to Misha I have become far more accepting and less judgmental of myself and others around me.
