About Sabine
How I Got Back Up and Learned to Embrace Life Again
Hi! I'm Sabine, a qualified Nutritionist and Yoga Therapist on a mission to empower bereaved people who lack the energy, motivation, or practical skills to look after themselves well.
I have been where you are now and I can help you eat more regular nutritious meals, improve your energy, stabilise your mood, reduce anxiety, combat brain fog, and sleep better so that you can regain control of your life and start to 'truly' live again after your devastating loss.
My Journey and Qualifications
My husband died of acute myeloid leukemia several years ago. His disease prompted me to pursue my lifelong interest in food as medicine, and I decided to study Nutrition Science & Practice, leveraging my background in translation to navigate scientific literature on treatment options, cancer diets, and gut health.
A year later, I discovered the powerful techniques of Kundalini yoga and enrolled on a teacher training course to give Kevin the best support going through his stem cell transplant. Due to serious complications, he died four months after the treatment.
This is when Kundalini yoga became my anchor.
Today, I am proud to be a member of the British Association for Nutrition and Lifestyle Medicine (BANT) and registered with the Complementary & Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC). I am also a fully qualified Yoga & Ayurvedic Therapist, blending ancient healing wisdom with modern science to support holistic healing.
My personal journey through loss and healing has given me unique insights that I now use to support others on their path to recovery from the massive impact of grief.
My Approach
I firmly believe that good nutrition and stress management play a crucial role in how well we navigate the ups and downs of grief. By avoiding blood sugar rollercoasters on top of emotional ones, we can cope much better with all the turmoil and chaos.
Through my own experience, I discovered how profoundly our food choices and eating habits can affect our emotional state. I noticed that I was much more likely to feel anxious, irritable, depressed, or generally unbalanced when I was not able to get the ‘happy’ food I would normally eat or when I skipped a meal because I couldn’t be bothered.
Changing habits is never easy, especially in times of grief. That's why I offer both practical and emotional grief support to help you:
- Establish new eating & lifestyle habits
- Develop effective stress management techniques
- Create a personalised eating plan and daily routine that supports your healing
- Make sense of the physical and emotional changes you're experiencing
We'll work together at your own pace, focusing on small, manageable changes that can make a big difference in how you feel and function day-to-day.
Take the First Step
Grieving can be lonely, but you don't have to go through it alone. I offer various ways for you to connect with like-minded people and find support. As a wonderful "side-effect," you may even rediscover your love for cooking or meditation, just as I did.
One small step can change your life
Are you ready to share your story with someone who truly listens and understands? Book a ‘First Steps Grief Support’ session with me today. In this session, we'll discuss your current challenges and explore how we can work together to rebuild your energy and resilience, one step at a time.
Let's embark on this journey of healing together.
Much love,
Sabine
