Hello, my name is Laara Harlingten, and I am thrilled that you've found my services. As you begin your health purification journey with my guidance, you will be invited to share an unedited life story along with a sample diet, a list of any medications and/or vitamin supplements you currently take, a list of superfoods and any known or suspected allergies. This might seem overwhelming but it is a very important first step.  In a lot of ways as a holistic nutritionist, I am a nutrient mathematician.  My 40-year career studying and cooking foods has taught me a lot about food composition.  I started my career in nutrition at birth; as a bottle-fed baby, I learned that food hurt and resulted in many allergies and digestive issues.  A gift in disguise as is so often the case with life challenges.  Since "they say" a picture is worth a thousand words I have told my story in photos. Some of the photos are dated, but I've included them unapologetically for impact and to show that perfection isn't required for success.

 

Writing your story has no wrong approach because it's your lived experience. Be sure to write honestly about the good, the bad, and the ugly. Don't omit anything that comes to mind during this process, as it will aid me in understanding your journey and enable you to grasp why you are where you are today. Everything you've done, learned, consumed or encountered has led you to this moment, and it's all valuable particularly the challenges. Consider friction both a blessing and a curse, akin to the remarkable friction necessary to form a pearl.

 

Understanding where you've come from is key to your health purification, but even more crucial is knowing where you want to go. Many find this challenging. My mother used to say, "If you don't know where you're going, any road will take you there," or you may have heard it said, "They go where the wind blows." Today, you define the kind of wind you wish to be swept up in. For those with digestive issues, 'wind' can be a sensitive subject—humor is acceptable when it's about personal experiences. It took most of my life to achieve a healthy digestive tract, which led to a happier outlook. Digestive problems are serious, and if improving gut health is one of your main objectives, then you're in the right place. 

 

Create & visualize your ideal self constantly.  (see my pictures from age 50 to -  present). Collapse time and boldly embody your ideal self!  Eat, move and dress this ageless, stressless version you already know inside.  Refuse to accept any diagnosis as a permanent state of being - it is a symptom of biochemical imbalances that can be corrected with a little information.  Fear is constantly generated by media and well-meaning people.  Decide to be open to a new understanding of health, wellness and aging. It is all in your head and nutrition helps you to stay young in mind, body and spirit.  Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.  Today's medical system is just that "a system".  Your body does not fit into anyone else's idea of normal.  Your normal is, normal! 

 

Jesus exemplified the notion that "as a man thinketh in his heart, so is he." He performed health purification examples throughout his ministry.  He imparted the truth about healing, life, and eternity to his disciples. He demonstrated how to heal people using prayer, healthy words, thoughts, deeds and local homegrown food. Jesus was a teacher of pure thought.  He taught his disciples how to do the same to their friends and followers.  Jesus was a man who lived many years ago but some of the "truth" about life, health and living is as old or older than Jesus. Most importantly the information imparted back in the day was available to any person anywhere in the world without cost.  Abe Lincoln said, "Who you are speaks so loud I cannot hear what you are saying". In other words, the way we carry ourselves broadcasts to the whole world what we think about ourselves and our lives; next time you are in a public place watch what people tell you about their attitudes, beliefs and lives.

 

We live in a culture of constant advancements but our minds and bodies still live by simple health rules.  So many health challenges are caused by stress and chemicals that are added to our food and environment.  Instead of teaching people how to eat healthily, governments promote drug solutions.  It's a bit like doing up your fly but having your butt hanging out.  My role in your health program is first and foremost to teach you how to nourish YOUR body and mind.  There is no one diet for everyone.  For every person on the planet, there is a special diet.  Some wonderful side effects of learning how to nourish your body and mind include a deep night's sleep and a healthy fit mind and body without the need for pharmaceutical drugs. 

 

Once you have mastered the basics of your nutritional requirements your health coach will help you to understand how your words may be inadvertently affecting your relationship to yourself, others and the world.  When you can accept that up to now every decision you made was the right one based on your health and understanding at the time, you release over 50% of your anxiety.  We can only learn from the past and let it go. Forgiving yourself and all others is the best medicine.  As soon as you even think this - you experience a deep cleansing breath naturally.

 

Many people were never taught the basics of life and so they drift through life without a plan believing that some mysterious being will light the way. That mysterious being is about to become your own best friend. In fairness, religious programs taught people to believe in something outside of themselves.  Jesus taught "As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he" and "the Kingdom of Heaven is within".  It's not the new age version of God within but rather a purification of how you feel about yourself, your world and others.  The Kingdom of Heaven is a state of being that guarantees no matter where you take your last breath at least you will leave in an inner state of peace.  Praying for "things" isn't the goal;   praying for inner peace, comfort and contentment with what is that never dies.  It is a skill that everyone and anyone regardless of finances, race, gender or even age should strive for; inner peace at all costs is like discovering gold.  We don't know what happens at death but "as a man thinketh in his heart so is he" and "the kingdom of heaven is within" are pretty good clues about how to live to ensure the best outcome.  Sadly, many people were encouraged to listen to everyone else BUT themselves.  They may have even gone so far as to suggest that you might be crazy if you listen to the voices in your head that said stop-go or maybe not!  You do not need to explain to someone why you just don't think getting on that plane today would end well.  Trust your gut no matter what else you do "Be true to yourself".  You might not have a "good" reason just a hunch but go where it takes you.  There's always the next plane. Well-meaning people offer their opinions but because you were never encouraged to trust yourself you followed the crowd or your lover and more often than not your parents and God forbid the government.  

 

That voice - was never really satisfied with their decisions but you weren't in your power enough to gently tell them "Thanks but I've got this and mean it"!  People sense our ambiguity and controlling types love to take the reigns of others' lives - it makes them feel powerful.  Oftentimes people who seek services such as mine have never relied on their POWER.  The word POWER comes from the Latin word "be able"! Not necessarily aggression.  A lot of your time will be spent creating and being comfortable with healthier boundaries.  Trust me when I say this is not an easy process if you have never exercised your POWER muscles.  It takes a keen eye to see the subtle intentions behind a behavior.  My experience will offer you tremendous insight and strategies for navigating these murky waters with confidence and grace.  Please don't confuse POWER with aggression.  My program will offer you gracious ways of saying NO thank you in ways that don't offend anyone but get your desire across.

 

Reality can hit hard when, after years of waiting, hoping, and dreaming, you find yourself somewhere you never planned to be and those people who helped you get there are nowhere to be found. Making yourselves your best friend will help you to be on your side of life; it enables you to accept total responsibility for yourselves, your lives, your debts, mistakes, triumphs, and tragedies. Being your own best friend helps you to see and accept reality.  DENIAL is hurting everyone today.  When we truly embrace what is - life begins anew.  Embracing what is - is its form of purification.

 

At first awakening, this can be overwhelming, so it is very helpful to have an experienced health consultant to assist you with looking back, developing a forward-motion life plan, navigating the emotions that arise, and neutralizing their impact on your life. Throughout this entire process, I will be monitoring your food and supplement intake.  Nutrition affects our entire lives despite what leading health authorities today will tell you.  Vehicles run better on high test fuel - this is not a hard concept to grasp yet even heart surgeons rebuke the idea that nutrition has anything to do with a heart attack or cancer.  I will also recommend flower remedies and essential oils to help you manage emotional challenges as needed.  This is how we heal "body, mind and spirit". Drugs simply delay the inevitable. 

 

The good news is this process only needs to be done once.  Much of it will include "Radical Forgiveness" for yourself first and foremost and anyone who is taking up too much real estate in your mind. Once you go through a personal inventory. Receive a diet and supplement program for mind and body and get very clear about where you are going, letting go becomes easy.  I will offer fun "mind games" to help you achieve a peaceful state no matter what the outside world may be doing. By that I mean you will learn to identify when you are ungrounded, overly negative or positive or flipping back and forth.  You will learn a few tricks of the "mind trade" that help you to develop a neutral emotional state and when to call in the extra skills for tougher times.  These skills are not optional if your end goal is peace, prosperity and pure health.  We all need to learn "Emotional Intelligence 101".  "Emotional Intelligence 102" happens automatically. 

 

Keep your eye on your goals when things get challenging.  With time and practice this process becomes fun and your adventure.  Once you understand that "YOUR MIND DOES NOT KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN REALITY AND IMAGINATION"! Your purification will be supersized.  Armed with that information you will create your desired outcome and then you put it on like an overcoat from that moment on.  You walk that person, talk that person, dress them and eventually your old self will fall away "with your excess weight" and you will emerge like a Phoenix out of the ashes of your former self. Your super-self will begin to offer you solutions that you would never have conceived on your own. A quick takeaway; ever have an old lover that continues to cycle in your head? We have all been there. The next time they show up simply pop them into a balloon and watch them drift away.  The next time they pop into your consciousness they have less and less charge till eventually you forget them altogether.
