Hi, I'm Lauren Callahan.
Nutrition Coach. Plant-based. Ultra Endurance Athlete. Doctoral Student. IFS Practitioner.
I believe your body has the ability to Self-heal, and eating plant-based nutrition has an amazing ability to help you tap into that ability. Whether you have struggled with chronic disease, hormone imbalance, energy slumps, or otherwise just not feeling like yourself, there is solid, scientific research affirming that following a plant-based diet is one of the most powerful ways to
-
prevent, treat, and even reverse chronic disease,
-
optimize your health and performance,
-
and just feel like yourself again.
But transitioning to a plant-based diet can be tough.
Your body is Self-Healing.
Tap into your natural ability to heal.
Transitioning to a plant-based life style can be challenging. For some, the anticipation of all the changes that need to be made can stop you before you get started. Things like:
​
-
Going plant-based when no one else in your family is doing it.
-
Figuring out what to do in social situations.
-
Having no idea what to eat, what to buy, what to cook, or if you'll even like the food at all.
-
Dealing with criticism or a lack of support from others
And what can make it even harder is all the myths out there about plant-based eating, such as the myth that
​
-
you can't build muscle on a plant-based diet
-
you can't get enough nutrients
-
you'll feel tired and not full
-
you'll just have to resign yourself to salads and rabbit food
-
it's too expensive
-
it's not for athletes
The Truth
is that you CAN get more than enough nutrients and protein, food that you enjoy and is economical, and all the energy you need to thrive in your daily life, health, and performance.
AND
You can be FULLY SUPPORTED in this process, so you can successfully navigate all the common challenges of going plant-based.
​
At the Joy Clinic, you can get the support you need through Plant-based Transition Coaching to optimize your health and performance, and feel like yourself again.
