“I had the amazing pleasure of working with Irina for several months, before I left America to live full-time in Israel. Irina was a huge encouragement and brought a wealth of knowledge to our sessions. She even gave me back massages to lessen my tension and help to relax me. We cooked together, talked about my life and struggles with my weight and eating habits, and talked about ways to change my bad habits. I have now been living in Jerusalem for about 4 months, working for a music ministry, and have lost 40 lbs! A lot of that is due to Irina’s encouragement and teaching. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a personal holistic health coach!. My blog is www.cegrosch.blogspot.com if you want to reference it.”"

Carrie, 32, Manhattan and Israel

After divorce I felt miserable and depressed having sugar cravings as well as weight problems. Irina’s coaching helped me to get through my relationship issues and find the right food choices to become the new me. It was a pleasure to work with Irina and I still call her from time to time to talk about primary and secondary foods in my life.

Lisa, 44, Carlsbad CA

I met Irina in 2005 when I had digestive problems, as I thought. I also was under a lot of stress and had difficulties with PMS. After talking to Irina for the first time I realized that a lot of my problems were caused by food choices I had made. It took me more than 6 months to become a healthier person but I am very happy that I met Irina and went through her holistic health coaching and program Balancing Act.

Angela, 41, Zurich, Switzerland

I met Irina about 6 years ago, and from the moment I met her and till today, she is helping me to go through my life difficulties such as problems with health and relationships issues. I can hardly find an appropriate word to say “THANK YOU” to her as being an exceptional person with such an upbeat and energetic personality she is just changing people’s lives for the better giving away her energy, readily sharing her knowledge and experience. I would recommend her as a personal holistic coach or counselor to everyone and especially to the people I care for and sure enough you will get not only a person who will help you to understand life better and also a friend who will care about you. THANK YOU, Irina, SO MUCH, I will be back soon. You are the best !

Elena, 33, San Diego

Super Simple Detox and DeStress E-Books

When we talk about women’s health, it is always about stress and stress related issues. Ladies, we are full of emotions, aren’t we? And nothing we can do about it, but …..

Let us think, for a second, what causes stress in our life? Well, if I say emotions and bad food choices, will you believe me? I am not sure, but it is true. To feel and look good we have to find balance in our lifestyle and in our body.

So let’s talk about Primary and Secondary foods in our life to learn what I mean by stress remedies.

• Primary foods, what does it mean? It is food, but not exactly the one we can eat from our plates when we are hungry. This is something that feed us in different way, and I am talking about a hug, a kiss, a touch, a smile. This group of “foods” consists of career, relationship, physical activities, and spiritual life. Our mind is not separate from the body.The thoughts we have influence our physical condition. How satisfied we are in each areas of our life is very important for our overall balance.
• Secondary foods are actual food we can put on our plates. Unfortunately, not all food is the same. There are natural whole foods, such as fruit, vegetables, grains, nuts, seeds. And there are processed foods, refined foods, junk food.

Throughout most of history, food for our body was whole foods. In general, they supply our bodies with instructions they need to function properly.

Processed foods, from another hand, contain chemically derived ingredients our bodies don’t know how to read. One of the biggest problems of the modern American diet is that we move further and further from natural foods to artificial and refined. It creates metabolic disaster-imbalance. Coupled with chronic stress and low level of exercises this blank (no nutrients) food contributes to chronic inflammation which leads to diabetes, heart disease, obesity, women’s issues, etc., in other words it leads to imbalance in our body.

Toxic chemicals in the water we drink and the air we breathe also affect our metabolic imbalance and contribute to inflammation in our body which leads to illnesses – that is why it is so important to detox/cleanse our body from time to time to get back our balance.

To reach our metabolic balance, we have to change our food and nutrition preferences, experimenting and making choices based on our bio-individuality.

To find our lost overall balance we have to start listening to our bodies and paying attention to the areas we are dissatisfied the most. We have to learn how to prioritize our health, our relationships, our jobs, etc. We have to sort them out and start a wonderful journey to wellness, journey that will help us to get back our healthy body and happy mind.
