Addressing the Root Causes of Health Concerns
To help address the Root Causes of health concerns, True to Yourself Clinic emphasises the importance of optimising four key aspects of overall health. These are:
- Reducing Chronic Stress, Anxiety and Emotional Upset
- Improving Sleep
- Improving Digestion
- Improving the Overall Nutritional Quality of your Food
1
Reducing Chronic Stress, Anxiety and Emotional Upset
We can have high workloads in life at times, and can face many demands and challenges. This can result in stress, anxiety or emotional upset. If stress, anxiety, or emotional upset become chronic and ongoing, this may be particularly depleting and may contribute to other health issues, including low energy, low immunity, digestion issues, or hormonal imbalances.
True to Yourself Clinic emphasises the importance of mental and emotional health and wellbeing. The Nutrition, Lifestyle and Herbal Remedy Treatment Plan provided may support your body in feeling less depleted and more resilient to stress.
It is also important to consider all support options available during difficult times, including your doctor and appropriate talk therapies.

Improving Sleep
Dealing with disturbed or broken sleep can be very difficult, particularly if it’s an ongoing issue. Waking up feeling unrested may also indicate that the quality of your sleep could do with improvement. Sleep issues may affect many areas of our health, including immunity and mental health. You may also find that if you don’t get good quality sleep you feel less resilient to demands and challenges in life, and may be more prone to anxiety or overwhelm.
True to Yourself Clinic provides practical nutrition and lifestyle recommendations, and tailored herbal remedies, aimed at facilitating deep, refreshing and restorative sleep.
3
Improving Digestion
Through consuming food that our bodies either don’t need or can’t fully process, the body may not be able to readily utilise this food for energy or for vital functions such as cellular repair and regeneration. This food, which is not fully utilised, still has to be processed and eliminated by the body. This may be taxing on our digestive system in particular, causing overload and congestion.
This in turn may lead to issues such as impaired absorption, digestive discomfort, or disturbances to our gut flora. Digestion issues may also negatively affect other aspects of health, including energy levels, sleep, immunity, skin, mood, mental health, or hormonal balance.
True to Yourself Clinic prepares Nutrition, Lifestyle and Herbal Remedy treatment plans to help support optimal digestive function and comfort.

Improving the Overall Nutritional Quality of your Food
Our food can nourish us, and what we eat may help optimise our health. When our food lacks what our bodies need, many areas of health may be affected, including energy levels. This may lead to a dependency on caffeine and sugar which may only provide short-term sources of energy without addressing the causes of any deficiencies in energy levels.
Certain foods provide key nutrients and may help promote particular healthy functions in the body. Your treatment plan will be tailored to include specific foods recommended to suit your particular needs.
For example, some dark green vegetables like broccoli and kale may support good digestion and the elimination of metabolic wastes and excess hormones. Blueberries, raspberries and blackberries may also help reduce oxidative stress and chronic inflammation, and may help support cardiovascular health.
