5 BENEFITS OF HIRING A HEALTH COACH
- December 3, 2019
- 0 comments
You might’ve heard the words “health coach” or “holistic health coach” Toronto, right? It’s thrown around in your social circles or on the online wellness blogs your read. But what exactly does a holistic health coach do? And more importantly, how can they help us to keep our health on point?

What is a holistic health coach in Toronto?

There has been an alarming increase in the number of people developing chronic health issues. More and more of us are starting to understand that in order to take control of our health, it’s essential to find and address the root cause. While many of us know that our current lifestyle habits might not be supporting our health, the problem is that we often don’t know where to even begin making changes. This is exactly where a health coach comes in!

The role of a health coach is to walk you through how to overcome the challenges your facing. A good health coach will motivate you, hold you accountable and support you every step of the way. Think of it this way: there are personal trainers who help support us with our fitness goals, right? Well, health coaches are like “trainers” for other areas of life, such as stress management, supplement routines, nutrition habits, and sleep patterns.

Many of us want to make healthy changes, but we just don’t know where to start. Imagine having a guide who would help you create a roadmap for your goals and stick to a sustainable plan that works! Here are some of the other benefits of health coaching:

A health coach works one on one with you

Conventional doctors rarely spend more than ten to fifteen minutes with their patients. As a result, more times than not, they end up prescribing patients a Band-Aid for their symptoms. A health coach gives you the time of day. They take the time to understand your goals, needs, preferences, anxieties and challenges. This allows them to help implement the personalized plan of action and protocols prescribed by your functional medicine practitioner.

A health coach’s philosophy is based on bio-individuality

Health coaching is a personalized approach. Everyone has different bodies and needs, which is why a one-size-fits-all way of thinking doesn’t work when it comes to our health. One of the benefits of coaching is that you get to work one on one with someone who understands that you are a bioindividual. In other words, the focus is on you!

A health coach empowers you

In conventional medicine, the system is passive and patients aren’t actively involved in changing their health habits. When you work with a health coach, you are encouraged and empowered to show up as the expert in your own life, make the right behaviour changes for your own body, and take control of your health!

A health coach offers accountability

Do you have trouble sticking to your wellness goals? A coach is an accountability partner who will support and encourage you even when you feel like you’re about to quit. Calls with a coach can provide you with ongoing support and encouragement to continue making strides toward achieving your goals, even when there are obstacles in the way.

A health coach helps work through your roadblocks

Just when you think you’re out of resources and feeling like you want to give up, a health coach will encourage and inspire you to keep moving forward. Diet and lifestyle changes can be hard, but with a coach, you’re not in it alone. When you’re faced with a challenge, a coach will cheer you on and help you stick to your plan.

6 TIPS TO BEAT JET LAG
- November 18, 2019
- 0 comments
Jet lag is basically our body’s own way of letting us know that it’s out of sync with local time. And it can be a real pain in the you know what when you’re trying to embark on a lovely holiday. After all, planning a vacation is stressful enough without worrying about how to beat jet lag too. Between coordinating everyone’s calendars, packing, planning excursions and booking hotels, we don’t want to throw jet lag in the mix on top of it all! We want to make sure that jet lag doesn’t get in the way of you enjoying your next holiday!

Why does jet lag happen?

Jet lag happens when the body’s natural circadian rhythm doesn’t match up with the external environment. This happens as a result of travel across time zones. Essentially, jet lag happens when changes in our environmental cues (such as light, temperature and meal times) conflict with our body’s existing patterns. In a way, it’s our body’s response to something unnatural. Sure, it’s common these days to hop on a plane and travel long distances, but that doesn’t mean it’s normal to our physiology. When you think about it, we’ve only had the opportunity to travel across time zones via airplanes for a few decades. This means that humans haven’t evolved to be able to adjust quickly to these rapid changes in time. Even a quick trip across one time zone can cause jet lag and affect our body!

Jet lag can show up in many different ways. It can mess with our sleep, hormones, appetite, energy levels, immunity, stress, digestion, sex drive and more. Changes in our sleep cycle can also throw off our circadian rhythm, aka our internal body clocks!

Here are some tips for how to beat jet lag when you next travel:

1. Practice sun training

Research has shown that light exposure before, during, and after you fly can affect your ability to sleep. As a result, this impacts the severity of our jet lag. To optimally synchronize our body clocks when we arrive at our destination we should stare at the sun when it’s rising, have it directly above our head at 12pm each day, and watch the sunset. Watching the sunset while on vacation? Is there anything more relaxing anyway? Doing this is actually strategic, as it sends the correct signals to our brain, thus alerting our body that it’s either time to be awake or asleep.

2. Adjust your sleep hygiene

Sleep hygiene refers to the things you implement to promote a healthy sleep. In preparation for our new time zone, we want to make sure that we’re not exposed to light during night time in our new destination and are awake in the morning of our new destination. Since light exposure at specific times can help regulate our circadian rhythm, we can slowly start to train our body’s a few days before our travel plans. This may look like staying up a little later or go to bed a little earlier. We can also do this on the plane ride over. To help us sleep, we recommend doing things like getting a sleep mask and ear plugs, avoiding blue light (aka staring at a screen) a few hours before you plan on going to bed, and practicing relaxation techniques.

3. Stay extra hydrated

Ever notice how on a plane you tend to get dehydrated? Dehydration can worsen the symptoms of jet lag. Dehydration is very common while traveling by air, so make sure to stay adequately hydrated when you travel. Moreover, try to avoid caffeine and alcohol before, during and after your flight. Contrary to popular belief, alcohol actually disturbs our sleep. And since you might be adjusting to a new sleep schedule, caffeine will also keep you awake, in addition to dehydrating you! Our favourite way to take our hydration “to go” is by using a Berkey water bottle to filter out any impurities from the water fountains at the airport. PLUS, it saves us from buying the over-priced plastic bottles!

4. Upgrade your melatonin supplement

Many people, especially frequent travelers, take melatonin to support their sleep in order to beat jet lag. If you’re not familiar with it, melatonin is the hormone in our body that is released at night to help us sleep (that is, if our circadian rhythm is in check). For an external temporary sleep support, we recommend Insomnitol Chewables to support a deeper, restorative sleep. These tablets also contain vitamin B6, inositol and l-theanine to further help calm brain activity to help you fall asleep and STAY asleep.

5. Switch up your eating habits

When traveling to a different time zone, changing the time we eat and the amount of food we eat is important. Try planning your meals to coincide with your new time zone as much as possible. In the first few days of traveling, we recommend sticking with smaller meals – It’s important to avoid having large meals because our digestive enzymes, which help break down and digest food, are also on a circadian clock so our digestive system might not be primed to digest a huge portion when our body thinks it’s the middle of the night.

6. Practice grounding

Another great idea for how to beat jet lag is grounding. Grounding, also known as “earthing”, refers to making direct contact between your bare feet and the ground. According to many wellness experts, the benefits include helping you soak up the earth’s negative charge. This in turn is known to reduce inflammation, refresh our mind and body, promote better quality sleep and even help with jet lag. So needless to say, if you’re going somewhere warm, going for a barefoot walk on the beach is a good idea! If you’re not traveling any time soon, don’t worry! There are other grounding techniques like eating root veggies or listening to relaxing, calm nature sounds such as waves crashing or birds chirping that have similar benefits!

If you implement any of these tips, let us know how it goes!

TORONTO PILATES STUDIO: 7 WAYS TO SEE BETTER RESULTS WITH YOUR WORKOUT
- September 26, 2019
- 0 comments
We’ve all heard the saying “too much of a good thing.” Well, sometimes cardio can be one of those things. Cardio is amazing for our heart health and for other parts of our body as well. It supports weight loss, increases lung capacity, improves memory and focus, and even enhances mood. However, it is best consumed frequently in small doses, mixed with resistance training and active rest, such as stretching. Take it from this Toronto Pilates studio and Toronto functional medicine practice, we know what we’re talking about.

What is cardio exactly?

A cardio workout is anything that increases our heart-rate. Whether it’s a spin class, running on a treadmill, hiking outdoors, a Toronto Pilates studio reformer class (hint hint) or interval training, cardio strengthens our heart. After all, our heart is a muscle and it needs to be worked just like any other muscle in our body to stay healthy. When our hearts and cardiovascular systems get stronger, more oxygen is delivered to our cells. This supports muscle recovery, boosts our metabolism and allows our body to function more efficiently. According to the Centre For Disease Control, only 1 in 3 American adults get enough physical activity. But just because you’re an avid cardio junkie doesn’t mean you’re exercising optimally!

A question from a Toronto Pilates Instructor: Are You OD-ing on Cardio?

The idea that we need to “go hard” with cardio and limit calories is outdated and old school! Excessive cardio and limiting calorie intake can tax the adrenals and cause a shift in cortisol levels, which signals your body to enter “fat conservation mode.” We’re not saying your workouts shouldn’t include cardio. No, no. Here at our Toronto Pilates studio every workout includes what we call cardio bursts. And workouts definitely should include cardio! But there are factors we need to be mindful of to ensure we’re getting the most of our cardio efforts.

7 WAYS TO EASILY OPTIMIZE YOUR WORKOUTS

HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR CARDIO TIP #1: Practice active recovery

In order to repair micro-tears, restore glycogen fuel stores and ensure our muscles are recovering properly, it’s essential that our body rests. If we don’t, our muscles can weaken from being tight and overused. This makes us more susceptible to injuries. It also makes us more depleted of energy when it’s time for our next workout. But a rest day doesn’t have to mean being a couch potato. A rest day can still include moving our body. Opt for lower intensity physical activities, such as walking, gentle Pilates, yoga, stretching or foam rolling. This is what we call active recovery!

HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR CARDIO TIP #2: Look for other mood-boosting activities

In addition to physical benefits, there are many mental benefits to exercise. Exercise reduces stress, increases memory and concentration, and boosts our mood. When we exercise, our brain’s pleasure circuit activates (aka endorphins, dopamine, and other “happy” neurotransmitters!) If you’re anxious at the thought of taking a rest day for this reason, there are other mood-boosting activities you can try. Studies show that even just going for a walk gets our blood flowing, our muscles engaged and also triggers the release of dopamine. Other things like meditation and deep breathing exercises are scientifically proven to effectively reduce stress, clear our mind, build positivity and balance cortisol levels.

HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR CARDIO TIP #3: Get into a “gain” mindset

Let’s be honest, cardio culture is often built around tapping into our body insecurities to get us to lose more, get “skinnier” and sweat ourselves away. What if instead of focusing on losing, we focused on gaining? If cardio is something you truly enjoy doing, try switching your mindset away from that negative “less-than” self-talk to empowering reasons like building endurance, releasing endorphins and fostering mobility.

HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR CARDIO TIP #4: Get enough sleep

The quality of your sleep is important to supporting digestion, managing stress and balancing our hormones. It’s also essential when it comes to fitness and muscle recovery. When we sleep, growth hormone is released, our brain recharges and it’s the time when our muscles recover, repair and rebuild. Achieving a high quality of sleep helps increase our energy levels and prevent fatigue. So you’ll feel more motivated and revitalized for your next sweat session!

HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR CARDIO TIP #5: Schedule your workouts appropriately

Did you know that regular exercise can also promote a deeper, more restorative sleep? The problem is, we have to be careful of the timing of our exercise. If we exercise too close to bedtime (especially if it’s a high-intensity workout like cardio), it will get our adrenaline pumping, which can actually keep us awake and interfere with our sleep. While here at TMB, a well known Toronto Pilates studio, we always promote moving your body on a daily basis, we also encourage exercising earlier in the day. An early day workout will prevent adrenaline and cortisol from affecting you at night, so save the lighter exercises, like yoga and stretching, for the evening.

HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR CARDIO TIP #6: Choose the right exercise for your cycle phase

Ladies, listen up! Did you know that you can have more successful workouts if you plan them according to your cycle? The type of exercise you should be doing when you’re ovulating is different to what you should be doing in the days before your period. Studies show that days 7-14 of our cycle are when we have the most energy, so this is when we should engage in more intense workouts. Days 1-7 (menstruation), we’re better off practicing low intensity movements and sneaking in some active rest days.

HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR CARDIO TIP #7: Acupuncture Treatments

Many athletes and active individuals rely on acupuncture to support the function of their body. Not only does it minimize muscle and joint pain, but it also reduces inflammation. Acupuncture also improves circulation, enhances energy, builds endurance and shifts us from our sympathetic state into a parasympathetic state. The former is the part of the nervous system responsible for our “fight or flight” functions. The latter is our body’s “rest, digest and heal” mode. Acupuncture can also allow you to have a deeper, higher quality of sleep. As we mentioned, better sleep can help you out in the long-run when it comes to your fitness regime.

Did we mention we have killer Toronto Pilates classes and private Pilates sessions at TMB that combine the best cardio, three dimensional toning and strengthening movements? Check out what they’re all about!

What’s The Deal With Gluten Anyway?
- September 3, 2019
- 0 comments
Does anyone else feel like gluten has become the food villain of the decade? So the question is…is it just a trendy fad or is it something we should actually be concerned about? Are there gluten free diet benefits? Like most food trends, navigating what your friends are doing, what’s trending online and what’s actually going to make a positive difference for your health can be tricky (read: impossible). Think you’re off the hook because that muffin you ordered was gluten free? Think again!

What is gluten?

Gluten is a general term for the “sticky” protein molecules found in some grains: gliadin and glutenin. It has a glue-like consistency that gives bread it’s elasticity when baked and it’s also often used as a binder or filler in processed foods. Why is gluten problematic? Gluten has been shown to spike levels of the protein zonulin in the gut, leading to leaky gut syndrome. This gut permeability allows undigested food proteins and bacterial endotoxins to pass into the blood stream, activating an inflammatory-immune response in your body. Wheat has the highest concentrations of gluten proteins and is the most common in our diet.

In addition there are other gluten-containing grains, such as spelt, kamut, rye, barley and oats. Oats themselves do not contain gluten but are often processed in the same facilities as gluten products (unless specifically saying “gluten free oats” on the label). As such, a gluten contamination of oats can be enough to trigger a reaction in the body. Many common foods that contain gluten include bread, crackers, cereals, sauces, pastas, doughs, wraps, buns, dressings and pastries.

Why does it seem that gluten-related health issues are suddenly popping up everywhere? Are there gluten free diet benefits?

Reactions to gluten run on a spectrum. On one end there’s celiac disease, and then there’s gluten intolerance and non-celiac gluten sensitivity at the other. Research has shown that the prevalence of all three has been growing. Celiac disease in particular, has rates doubling every fifteen years! But the question stumping a lot of people is, why? Gluten has been around forever! Why all of a sudden are there gluten free diet benefits?

For starters, the gluten that our grandparents ate years ago is very different than what’s available to us today. It’s estimated than 5% of the proteins found in wheat are “new proteins” that aren’t found in the original wheat plant due to hybridization and other modern production practices. These days wheat also contains MORE gluten molecules than they once did. Many gluten-containing foods, like popular commercial bread brands for example, already contains wheat flour (which is gluten containing), but more gluten itself is then added to extend the shelf life and make it more appealing to the consumer (softer, more pliable etc.). Don’t believe us? Check the ingredients list!

Another factor that comes into play is modern agricultural practices. Our increased use of pesticides and the introduction of other toxins have not only depleted our soil of nutrients, but have increased the amount of chemicals in our food and environment. Cue leaky gut, intestinal damage and a susceptibility to food sensitivities. Not to mention wheat is one of the most heavily sprayed crops, most commonly being sprayed with glyphosate (also known as the leading ingredient in the pesticide called “round up).

What’s the bottom line? Wheat is not what it once was. In addition, the intersection of many different factors in our food, environment and lifestyles have created the perfect storm for gluten reactions.

Should everyone avoid gluten?

Have you ever heard of a gluten deficiency? No? Well, that’s because it doesn’t exist! Evidence shows that at the end of the day, gluten doesn’t benefit anyone. One particular 2015 study looked at patients with active celiac disease, celiac patients in remission, patients with non celiac gluten sensitivity and patients with no gluten-related complaints. They found that exposure to gluten in all four groups lead to SOME level of intestinal damage. In other words, everyone has some type of reaction to gluten after consumption.

Some people may only experience subtle symptoms because they’re able to repair and recover from the damage more quickly than others. Meanwhile other people’s symptoms are more obvious. Symptoms are also wide-ranging. Mood changes, to skin reactions, migraines, stomach aches, brain fog and joint pain are just a few. From a clinical perspective, if we know gluten is causing damage on even a small scale, it would be recommended to take it out of the equation because over time, small amounts of damage to the intestines can lead to more series issues.

5 tips to adopt a gluten free diet and reap the gluten free diet benefits

Don’t worry however because there’s good news! With gluten being the talk of the town these days, gluten free resources are becoming increasingly abundant in our society. From restaurant menus, to online recipes and cookbooks, there’s no shortage of gluten free alternatives. If you want a gluten free life, here are some tips to make the gluten-free diet benefits more accessible to you. We talk about this all the time!

GLUTEN FREE TIP 1: Find substitutes that you love

There’s no shortage of alternatives out there! Do your research and learn about what’s available. For example, you can use almond flour in your baking instead of refined flour and find healthy, gluten free brands that won’t trigger any symptoms. Need help with this? TMB’s got you covered with our health coaching services.

GLUTEN FREE TIP 2: Check with restaurants in advance

If you’re going out for dinner with your friends and feel weird or intimidated about asking the server about gluten-free options in front of the group, call the restaurant ahead so you know what to order! Most restaurants have plenty of gluten free options on their menu, and they’re happy to accommodate any and all dietary restrictions!

GLUTEN FREE TIP 3: Have resources available in your home

If all you have in your cupboards is gluten-filled foods, then that’s what you’re going to be eating! Add gluten free items to your next grocery list so you can stock your home with healthy alternatives. It might also be worth getting a few gluten-free cookbooks and pick some new favourite recipes!

Just be careful to always check the ingredients list. Aka just because it’s “gluten-free” doesn’t mean it’s healthy!

GLUTEN FREE TIP 4: Plan your meals ahead of time

If you’re in the middle of running errands and have a social gathering to make it to in a rush, you’re more likely to make a pit stop and grab takeout, which might mean processed foods that contain gluten. If you plan out your day and bring a pre-packed meal with you, you’ll be more prepared when hunger strikes! Meal prepping can also help you stick to a gluten free diet instead of reaching for a bagel at work.

Side benefit: Taking out processed foods from our diets (many of which are gluten-containing) and replacing them with nutrient dense foods is another reason you’ll likely feel better after going gluten-free!

GLUTEN FREE TIP 5: Remind yourself how you feel when you eat gluten

Before you dive into that bowl of pasta, remind yourself how you’re going to feel after. Will you be bloated? Would your stomach hurt? Do you get tired and have to go to bed early? Will your skin become inflamed? This can help motivate you to make healthier choices.

Want to take a step in the right direction towards moving, feeling and looking better? Join our FREE 3 Day Clean Gut Detox Program! During the course of the 3 days, you’ll get a small glimpse of what to expect in the full 21-Day program. One of the cornerstones of the 21-Day Clean Gut Detox is education – We don’t just tell you what to do (like avoiding gluten, for example), but we also tell you why you’re doing it and how these recommended changes will support you on your health and wellness journey.

What are the benefits of collagen
- April 24, 2019
- 0 comments
Understanding what collagen is and how collagen benefits your skin and overall health

You may have seen it all over Instagram. You’ve glimpsed it in the vitamin aisle of your favourite health food store. You’ve noticed it on the ingredient list of some of your beauty products. Collagen protein has been the talk of the town and for good reason! But what is collagen, exactly, what are the benefits of collagen and should you be taking it?

What is collagen and what are the benefits of collagen?

Collagen is the most abundant structural protein in our body, with type 1 collagen accounting for 90% of the body’s natural supply. It’s an essential building block for healthy hair, skin, nails, cartilage, connective tissue, bones, tendons etc. and carries a wide variety of benefits, including replacing dead skin cells, promoting healthy joints & bones, and gut lining repair (Leaky gut anyone?) In short, there are countless benefits of collagen and here at TMB we’re big fans of it!

5 awesome facts about collagen and why its good for you

Still not convinced if collagen protein is for you? Here are five fun facts about collagen and its many beneficial properties! Although our body naturally produces collagen, we add it to our diet for the following reasons:

REASON #1 WHY WE LOVE THE BENEFITS OF COLLAGEN

Collagen production begins to slow down and decrease as we age, which can cause signs of aging such as wrinkles, joint pain and weakened cartilage.

REASON #2 WHY WE LOVE COLLAGEN PROPERTIES

Although collagen can be found in many skin care products, such as creams and serums, it is more beneficial to take it orally rather than topically, as most molecules in collagen are too large to absorb into the skin.

REASON #3 WHY WE LOVE THE BENEFITS OF COLLAGEN

Collagen levels can start to deplete due to certain lifestyle factors, such as a poor diet, smoking, and consuming excessive amounts of alcohol.

REASON #4 WHY WE LOVE COLLAGEN

Collagen is not a complete source of protein. It is however rich in glycine, alanine, proline, hydroxyproline, arginine, and glutamine. These specific amino acids are the ones that play an important role in healing the gut lining and reparation of hair, skin, nails, joints and cartilage.

REASON #5 WHY WE LOVE COLLAGEN

Not all collagen is created equal. Make sure you are getting a 100 percent grass-fed collagen. Mammals store toxins in their bones, so you want to ensure you are consuming a clean source. This is why we carry Bulletproof Collagen at TMB.

Can I enjoy the benefits of collagen if I’m vegan or vegetarian?

Collagen is sourced from animals, so if you do follow a vegan or vegetarian diet, it might not be the best fit for you. As an alternative, you can incorporate colourful, plant-based collagen-boosting foods into your daily diet, such as dark leafy greens, beets, sweet potatoes and garlic.

Collagen makes a world of difference in our overall wellness and skincare. Visit TMB to talk in more detail about collagen and your health! We provide tailored health improvement services that fit you better than designer couture!
