Thanks for checking. Most women that I work with have some additional issue(s) that they are hoping to address, and that is completely fine. In fact, as our physical and mental health is highly interconnected, and our root causes of illness are interconnected as well, working on fundamentals of health help to address multiple areas. Therefore, my clients either come in with additional wellness goals, or find that issues that they were not even focused on addressing end up being addressed as well! Common issues that you can expect to improve: Blood pressure health, Blood Sugar health, Joint health, Heart health, Lung health, and Skin health.

I'm glad that you asked. For most women, medication use will not be a hinderance to doing this program. The Equipped for Energy Metabolic Reset has a foundation in using food and stress reduction to heal your body. If you are able to eat lean proteins, vegetables, and fruit, then you will do well in this program. IMPORTANT NOTE: It is important to continue to work closely with your doctor on your health, even while in this program, because as you improve your health and metabolism, you may find that you need to speak to your doctor about lowering your doses of certain medications, such as blood pressure or blood sugar medications for example.

Excellent question! Your group program investment does not include testing. However, you will be provided with an Equipped for Success Kit, which includes supplemental support. Plus, one of the perks of being a client is that you will receive 20% off retail price on any additional supplements that you order for you or your family through the Equipped for Health store.

I know how you feel, as I have to check for those accommodations before I start anything new also! I support you with supplements that meet your needs, inlcuding allergies and sensitivities. Don't worry. I have you covered, and you will be well cared for in this program. Just let me know about any allergies or sensitivities that you have.

I love it when my clients have doctors that care! Considering that your work in this program is not a doctor-patient relationship, (it is a wellness consultant - client relationship) I encourage all of my members to continue working and cooperating with your medical providers at all times. You will receive a copy of each of our session notes and suggestions. You can feel free to share any of this information with your providers that want to review it.

Super important question! Our group program community is designed as a safe, comfortable space for women only.

Completely understandable question! Although still fairly new, the idea of group health visits is slowly growing and gaining momentum. Pretty soon, it will be at a health office near you. It has actually been found to be more beneficial in many ways for clients and patients than 1-on-1 sessions. That is because you get the benefit of more time with the provider (than they can spend on their own with each person individually), and because you get the opportunity to learn from the experiences of others that are going through similar struggles. Additionally, the group becomes a strong source of encouragement and accountability. It's quite amazing in fact. With all that said, please rest assured that I take confidentiality and privacy protection extremely serious in this program, just as I do in my private 1-on-1 programs. Therefore, everyone who joins must first sign a confidentiality agreement. Furthermore, we have strictly enforced rules about the ambiance and attitudes that are welcome and allowed during our group interactions. I only welcome women into the program that have the wellness goals and personalities that seem well-suited. However, if we ever come across a member that is not upholding their commitments to ooze support, love, and the utmost confidentiality of all members, then they will void and end their time in the group program.

Good question! If you change your mind and decide to cancel your participation within 24 hours of enrolling, then you will receive a full refund. After that point, investment on my end begins in making your experience and outcomes top notch in your program. If you decide to cancel your participation after 24 hours have passed, you will receive a refund of your investment, minus any costs for the Kit (if already shipped) and services already provided.

So glad you asked. As you said, this is a cleanse, and we all need to cleanse. We can adjust the food portion of the detox in order to support your weight maintenance goals as needed.

Indeed it is! I will have you do a modified food plan for the cleansing phase, that is appropriate to your vegan or vegetarian needs.

I can tell that you are serious about transforming your health, and I love it! I know that some women have a lot going on with their health, and that 12 weeks would be a good foundation, but not the full solution for them. That's why I continue to offer my 6 and 12 month programs, and offer clients of those programs the opportunity to go through this reset either with the group, or privately (their choice). If you already know that you would benefit from the 6 or 12 month program, we can enroll you in one of those more comprehensive programs, and you will a have complimentary invitation to go through the reset during your time as a client! In addition to more time to work privately, the 6 & 12 month programs include comprehensive wellness testing and additional nutritional & supplemental support.

I love girls time with my loved ones also. If your private group is 10 ladies or more, I will be open to hosting a private group for you. Email me about this special request at aleshamaurynd@equippedforhealth.com.

Good question. No diss to shakes, but this program does not involve them. We are only using real food - lean proteins, vegetables, and fruit. The program can be tailored for vegans and vegetarians as well.

Smart thinking! The Equipped for Energy Reset is designed for busy women, and teaches you how to feed yourself & your family in a way that is both enjoyable & healing. We focus on real food - lean proteins, vegetables, and fruit initially, as we do an elimination and cleansing period. Later, we add back certain starchier and fat-based foods, as you learn what works and what doesn't for your individual body. Most women find that it's easier to prepare everyone's food according to the reset plan, and tweak things here or there based on their spouse or child's needs. We will cover simple strategies to accomplish this during the program, so no worries. I have seen that spouses get the added benefit of seeing their own health and waistline improve as well. My husband definitely reaped the benefits in our home. Win-Win!!

Good news! This program is exercise free, in the traditional sense. You are encouraged to do some light gentle movement such as a 20 min leisurely walk or stretching, but you don't want to do anything strenuous and cardio-heavy in this program. That's because we focus on getting your body into parasympathetic (rest and digest) mode, which promotes the healing that you are aiming for. Your body will release inflammation, excess weight, stress, and toxins by doing less, not more. For those of you who enter the program not even able to do a 20 min leisurely walk - no worries, focus on following the other areas of this program, so that your body can strengthen in that area for the future! I will give you specific guidance based on your needs during our private and group sessions.
