My name is Ann Musico. I am a certified biblical health coach and I've been coaching, formally and informally, for almost 30 years. My certification is from the Biblical Health Institute, founded by Jordan Rubin. You may know Jordan also as the founder of Garden of Life, a health and wellness company that empowers people to attain extraordinary health. He has degrees in naturopathic medicine, nutrition and natural therapies.
As a Biblical health coach I use ALL the resources available to me in order to assist my clients in achieving their health goals:
naturopathic/integrative medicine
scientific research and studies
30 years of personal research, study, observation and experience
Wisdom from the Bible itself
You may be surprised to realize just how relevant and practical the Bible is in achieving health and wholeness. For example: 1 Thessalonians 5:18 instructs us to give thanks in all things; research shows that gratitude activates the parasympathetic nervous system which causes healing and restoration in the body and that thankful people are healthier overall; Leviticus 3:17 tells us we must not eat fat or blood and research bears out that the blood contains antibodies and all an animal's toxins are stored in the fat. In fact the entire book of Leviticus sets forth hygiene principles used by doctors and in hospitals today.
Do you have time to do everything you would like to do? I know I don’t. I have learned that getting help with certain tasks frees me up to accomplish what I truly need and want to do. That makes me more efficient overall and much less stressed. I know your schedule is just as busy.
How much time would you need to spend reading all the possible information on a health issue you may have? I can free up valuable time for you by sifting through all the health material available quickly and effectively to suggest the specific information that will work best for you. I know where to look and what to look for. That not only saves you valuable time, but money as well. And today, who doesn't want to save money?
What about motivation and discipline? Do you find it difficult to stay motivated and disciplined to follow through on a health program? I find having someone hold me accountable, while also providing motivation and encouragement makes the difference between success and failure. And I find that's true of almost everyone else. As a coach, my primary function is to encourage and motivate you, help you keep focused on the goal. Accountability is key. Research shows people follow through more consistently when they know there is someone they must periodically report to. Accountability is built in to my coaching programs, and I also provide personal, targeted information in the form of a Personal Wellness Plan or Get Healthy Game Plan created specifically for you.
