My journey with holistic nutrition began in 2013 when I moved from Vietnam to Germany and then to the Netherlands with my husband and two young children. I realised the incredible importance of the foods we eat—where our food comes from, how it’s grown, and its impact on our health and the planet. I started cooking from scratch and creating a variety of delicious, healthy, and wholesome meals for my family. It didn’t take long to discover that my passion for food extended beyond cooking; I wanted to understand nutrients and the healing properties of food to heal myself and those around me.

In 2018, I trained as a Nutritional Therapist through the School of Natural Health Sciences in the UK, earning my Advanced Diploma with Distinction. I also completed diplomas specialising in Child & Adolescent Nutrition. Learning about nutritional science and natural health solidified my conviction that most health problems can be prevented and reversed through food and lifestyle changes.

Personal Journey of Learning about Fasting, Lifestyle Medicine, & Women’s Hormones with Dr. Mindy Pelz

I am a big fan of Dr. Mindy Pelz and have been following her teachings on the fasting, lifestyle medicine and women’s hormones for the past 10 years. Initially, I was skeptical about fasting due to the lack of studies, especially for women. However, as I explored the scientific research on women’s hormones and the benefits of fasting, and, more importantly, experienced healing firsthand through my struggles during perimenopause, I felt inspired to become an expert and help other women like me.

My journey led me to study with Dr. Mindy Pelz, spending years learning, practicing, and helping other women understand the importance of hormones and the science of fasting. This natural approach not only supports the body’s self-healing processes but also addresses hormonal issues at every life stage—from puberty to menopause and beyond.

I’ve witnessed hundreds of thousands of women in our community heal and thrive using our proven method: the art of eating and fasting in harmony with their hormones and health. This powerful lifestyle tool has empowered women to reclaim their health, and well-being, navigating their peri/menopausal years with ease and confidence.

I am incredibly fortunate to have studied with Dr. Mindy and to be certified in this proven method. This certification allows me to teach and help other women regain energy, enhance metabolic flexibility, balance hormones, and lose weight naturally. This certification is a valuable addition to Heal & Flourish’s coaching programmes, and I am excited to share more about this transformative healing power with you.

My Journey into Yoga and Spiritual Healing

I have been practicing yoga since my teenage years, initially focusing on its physical aspects. However, it wasn’t until much later that I discovered the profound knowledge and ancient wisdom about yoga and spirituality that I had been missing out on.

In 2016, I decided to deepen my study and practice by completing a 200-hour yoga teacher training program, becoming a certified Hatha yoga teacher through Delight Yoga in Amsterdam. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of studying and practicing with many experienced yoga and spiritual teachers around the world. I have gained in-depth knowledge of the physical practice of yoga, philosophy, anatomy, different techniques of pranayama (breath work), meditation, kriyas (detox), energy, and the subtle body.

With a deep understanding of yoga and its related disciplines, I felt naturally drawn to mind-body practices that were holistic in nature. This path led me to spiritual healing.

Recently, I had the opportunity to learn different healing techniques with Sri Avinash and completed a Great Healer Masterclass with him in 2021. Though this is a new journey for me, I feel completely aligned with the path I am on and am passionate about continuing my healing practice with him.

My spiritual path has ultimately led me back to my own soul, helping me discover who I have been all along. This journey has enabled me to connect the dots and solve my health puzzle using mind-body practices. Through this journey, I have not only healed myself but also reached a point where I want to help others heal and learn how to nourish themselves.

Bioenergetics & Energy4Life (Formerly NES Health) Technology

As a therapist/practitioner with deep knowledge and experience in energy and spiritual healing, I have been drawn to Energy4Life Technology. This advanced system focuses on the study, detection, and correction of energy in living systems based on Quantum Biology. Energy4Life has spent decades mapping the body’s energy and communication systems, known as the human body-field, which controls physical activity. When this field is underpowered or distorted, it affects the body’s optimal function, leading to various health problems.

Improving the body-field’s function, combined with good nutrition and healthy lifestyle choices, allows the body’s natural healing system to restore health. By incorporating Energy4Life’s scan, Infoceuticals, and miHealth therapy into my nutritional therapy, fasting lifestyle, and holistic modalities, I provide my clients with diverse options to optimise health outcomes more effectively and efficiently.
