3-MONTH INDIVIDUAL SUPPORT

After months of intensive treatment, you’re finally in remission. But instead of being joyful and relieved, you’re feeling lost and both physically and mentally exhausted.

The thought of having to spend time and energy figuring out how to become an active participant in control of your recovery seems overwhelming. You’re tired and anxious.

What you want is a clear path back to vitality and wellness. And someone “who’s been there” to guide you while you adapt to a new life- that currently seems to be filled with nothing but uncertainty.

IF YOU ARE:

  • aware that nutrition and lifestyle medicine can play an important role in treatment outcomes of your illness
  • keen to make changes in your nutrition approach and way of life but have no idea where to start
  • convinced that you want to apply a metabolic approach where you learn to optimise and personalise your nutrition and lifestyle programme for your unique requirements
  • feeling lost and lonely after treatment is finally over and you’re craving support from like-minded people
  • looking for an experienced, highly-regarded and qualified practitioner who truly integrates al the important aspects of regaining health
  • spending way too much time trawling the internet and trying to figure out what could work for you
  • already following a ketogenic or low carb eating approach

“I was looking for control over anything since I felt like I was almost a non-person in the medical system. They were saying words I didn’t understand and I was seen more as the disease and not the person. I wanted to take back some of the control I felt I had lost. I wanted to take control over part of my body’s healing and not just let things happen around me. I wanted to be a part of my healing and not a by-stander.”

And I’m here to tell you that you’ve come to just the right place for guidance in doing exactly that!

My 3-month programme that includes not only learning of new skills but also implementation, accountability and extensive support has helped many other people in the same situation you’re in.

So where do you start?

For most people, all they need to feel better is knowing where to start. You want to be proactive but it is overwhelming. The last thing you need right now is to be stressed out and spend your precious free time researching the internet and books. It’s my passion and privilege to give you the comfort of knowing that you’re supported by someone you trust but also someone you want to learn from and be guided by. Rest assured that you’re in safe and experienced hands during the process of making changes that might initially scare you but will soon become second nature!

That’s why you’re here. You’re on a mission to be as well as possible, to get through or recover from treatment and rebuild a life filled with health, energy and joy. Maybe you’re craving

  • peace of mind
  • a clear head
  • the feeling that you’re taking back some control over your situation
  • gaining independence and confidence in your daily activities
  • the knowledge that allows you to adopt a nutrition and lifestyle plan that you can manage in the long term

Who is Patricia Daly?

I’m passionate about helping people who are keen to add a personalised metabolic therapy approach after completing their conventional treatment.  To be completely honest, this is not an easy path or quick fix. It involves major change to your lifestyle, daily habits and eating patterns (as it did for me- I know what it all involves!). My story shows how gaining reliable knowledge can put you on a path of clarity and confidence. This, in turn, promotes the process of reclaiming your health.

My research will never stop. From 2017 to 2021, I dedicated hundreds of hours towards obtaining a Masters of Science through Middlesex University in London, UK. Every single assignment was focused on metabolic health for oncology patients. This is not just what I do for a living now, but also because I’m in the same boat as every other patient affected by chronic illness. I’m on a quest to help you find the combination of science, natural interventions but also your inner compass that works for you. That helps you get back on a path of a joyful, health-filled life.

As a registered (mBANT, rCNHC) and highly experienced (10 years in clinical practice applying metabolic therapies) nutritional therapist who specialises in oncology nutrition, I’ve supported hundreds of patients on their journey. Not only do you work with someone who has faced a cancer diagnosis several times, I also have the necessary research skills, clinical expertise and motivational tools in my kit to help you on your quest for metabolic and overall health.

What to expect

  • Imagine having peace of mind about what foods work for you, not against you.
  • Imagine knowing that you are doing everything you possibly can to nourish yourself, get through treatments and protect yourself in the long term as best as you can.
  • Imagine a way of living where listening to your body is encouraged, not ignored.
  • Imagine finding ways to add other tools for a healthy lifestyle to your daily life- movement, mindfulness, toxin-free products; anything that helps your vitality, resilience and wellbeing.
  • The experience that it’s within your power to make changes that help you lead a healthier life with peace of mind.

Here’s how it works.

Change doesn’t happen overnight and a journey facing major health challenges often seems like a never-ending roller coaster. There are ever-changing nutritional requirements at different stages of your recovery.

With that in mind and because overwhelm can be a constant companion in the early stages of ketogenic metabolic therapies, I require a 3-month commitment for new clients with follow up appointments every 1-2 weeks (because it’s not just about knowing what to do, it’s about actually doing it). In between our face-to-face sessions, you will be able to watch videos in your own time, learn from handouts and use other resources to ensure you’re acquiring the necessary knowledge to implement your plan.

You also acquire essential skills such as:

  • How to assess which foods work in your favour- and which ones might have to be limited or completely skipped
  • Monitoring blood sugars and, if applicable, ketone bodies. Not just how to do it, but also when- and what to do with the readings you’re getting
  • Monitoring of other health markers that will give you confidence that you’re on the right path (or that you have to adapt certain elements!)
  • Learning what your blood tests mean and what to look out for- don’t be intimidated by this: many of my clients find this incredibly empowering (and, after a while, even interesting…)
  • Label reading, food shopping and lots of other practical skills (cooking!)
  • Assessing which lifestyle factors have the biggest impact on your well-being
  • Supplements: how to know what to prioritise, how to avoid overwhelm and where to source them

75-minute initial consultation

This is when we go into details! Prior to meeting for the first time, you will fill in a number of in-depth questionnaires going into your past and current health but also your medical and family history. I also ask about your food preferences, biggest health challenges currently and concerns you might have about making changes. In addition to going through all this at your first consultation, we’ll also cover:

  • What you need to know before embarking on dietary and lifestyle changes
  • Your unique nutritional requirements
  • Current signs and symptoms that keep you from enjoying daily activities (or that keep you awake at night!)
  • Your emotional relationship with food/eating and, most importantly, what you like and dislike
  • Emotional aspects of cancer treatments, especially stress management, and how to deal with this going forward

We will cover a lot of ground in your first visit. But I’ll make sure you walk away with clear action steps to take before your first follow up. These are sent to you the next working day after your consultation.

Follow-Up Sessions

The first week (at least) is a period of change and transition. While you’re getting prepared to adopt new habits, you will likely have a load of questions. We’ll get them all answered, review your progress and keep you moving forward on your journey. Together we’ll work out new action steps to take before your next follow up appointment.

At each visit, we’ll review your goals and monitor progress. Each session is different and I support you with knowledge, expertise and warmth. I help you adjust your diet and lifestyle. Give you guidance on how to deal with obstacles. You will also get help understanding the results of lab tests, so you know what to expect at your medical check-ups.

Beyond that, you help set the agenda for our visits. You might want to spend the time planning wholesome meals, discussing how to cook healthy family meals, modifying recipes to tailor them to your individual needs, simplifying your grocery shopping, detoxifying your environment or talking about long-term goals.

Partnerships and providing choices– that’s what my work is all about

It also takes determination and trust. Not just trust in me, my expertise, or even my experience of thriving with cancer myself, but trust in yourself, however tentative at first. Sure, my ability to empathise with clients, to reassure them when in doubt, is a huge plus. But I also believe that with the right support at the beginning, most people will discover the tools they need to make their diet and lifestyle changes sustainable for the future.

I’d love to work with you if:

  • your health is your #1 priority. You are motivated to make changes.
  • you’re looking for a programme that is tailored to your individual needs and circumstances.
  • you’re  keen to learn to tune in and trust your body again.
  • you’re tired of feeling anxious about what to eat– almost have a fear to put anything into your mouth for fear of it “feeding cancer”. You’re keen to regain some control over your health in a challenging situation.
  • you want knowledge. But much more than that- you want to implement that knowledge and turn it into action! You’re looking for support in making changes and sticking to them, someone to check in with and ensure you’re on track.
  • you want to work with somebody who doesn’t only have the skills and experience to guide you, but someone who genuinely cares about. Somebody who can empathise with what you’re going through.

We’re not the right fit if:

  • You think you can keep cancer at bay with diet and lifestyle changes alone.
  • You don’t receive medical supervision by a general practitioner or consultant.
  • You can’t imagine a life without processed foods.
  • Your energy is extremely low and you don’t have any support (family, friends or other carers). Please contact me for other options we can explore together.
  • You don’t see any reason why you should change anything in your life- you’re done with your treatment, you’re thriving again and fully enjoying life.
  • You aren’t willing to cook (or at least learn to cook) any of your own meals.

So Let’s Work Together!

I’m here to support you on your journey. But before we begin, I want to make sure we’re a good fit and that you’re fully aware how much commitment if will require. YOU will be leading the way on this journey and YOU will be putting in the hard work. With all my support, of course.

How to get started:

  1. Complete the questionnaire: click the “Get Started Now” button below. It will take you to a questionnaire that will give me some basic information about you.
  2. Schedule a free 20 minute consultation: After filling out the questionnaire, I’ll send you a link to schedule your free 20-minute consultation.
  3. Let’s talk: During our consultation we’ll discuss your specific needs and what support you need. We’ll make sure we are on the same page and a good fit. We then compare our schedules to see when your sessions can begin.
  4. Starting the programme: After our conversation, you’ll be sent an email with a link to where you can schedule your 1st session and select your payment plan.

Testimonials

Thank you for your very easy to follow & tasty meal plans. I am not particularly good at cooking & I do tend to let things slide but after following your plan for a week you do not know the pleasure I felt when my partner looked in the fridge & said yum yum ! He is a tough cookie to please with regards to food & that just made my day. I will be following the next weeks meal plans, thank you, but I wondered if you have any plans to release a book of recipes ? Your style of food seems to suit my constitution and the ingredients are familiar to me, some of the American recipes do not suit me so well. Love to buy your cookbook if you are planning one.

Just had a delightful consultation with a lady in her 70's who has published multiple books and articles. She stopped writing 8 years ago due to cognitive decline.
6 weeks after changing her diet, she is now working on her next book. Don't underestimate diet in dementia.

A good habit is to develop is to build movement into your everyday activities: take walks and climb stairs to get where you’re going; take a break at your desk and do some calisthenics or yoga poses; do anything other than sitting in one spot for prolonged periods of time.

We know that exercise stimulates the production of a brew of brain chemicals that make us feel good. But new research suggests that exercise can actually increase the number of dopamine receptors in the brain, helping to keep us “receptive” to the fun things in life too.
