A very passionate “no thanks” to moderation.

A very passionate, NO THANKS to moderation.

Did you hear about the latest diet fad and food trend?  Tune in to the white noise of life and you will figure out very quickly, there is a lot of noise about dieting! 

Many of us are overloaded with advice, maybe even worn out and confused.  What I offer is a way for you to tap into your own wisdom and nourishment compass, so that you can trust and value your own instinct.

When did it all get so confusing? Why did it all get so complicated?  Oh and since when did “have everything in moderation” make sense?  To me it’s a phrase that’s thrown out with zero thought or solid integrity, it is a catch phrase that has no universal meaning when it comes to food products and quantities.   To say “you can have everything in moderation” is not scientific, it is subjective and it’s unfair to suggest it as a solution to diet problems to anyone.  Saying to someone that they can have everything in “moderation” is pure rude, it’s non sense, it means nothing, and its health chaos grhhhhh!  Well if you’ve picked up that it annoys me you’d be corrrrrrrect *insert smiley face here*

The power of advertising, Niamh Horan was on the Cutting edge show the other night, she made a comment about being influenced by so many advertisements in a day, the host Brendan O’Connor said that it was the most snow flake comment he had ever heard.  I feel that Niamh was talking sense, we are constantly being influenced by commercials and advertisements, this has been going on for decades, and this can affect our values and decision making.

Getting back on point, I offer a buffer against all that and I also specialise in helping people reduce their sugar intake.  The work is client led and solution focused, check out my testimonials on instagram.

I created the “Sugar Wheel” it’s based on a life coaching model called the Wheel of Life.  I’ve harnessed 10 years of source information and put it down to 8 key question segments, we will focus on your life, we tap into and help you re-discover your values and beliefs about your health and wellbeing, and we put things in order.  It’s a 2 hour session with me!, you work hard, you focus and we shall get stuff sorted.  There is no signing up for anything.

I started off my blog by asking “

The fact is the problems are not ours to take, we can give those problems back to the product sellers and marketing gurus, we don’t need to buy anything being offered.  Yes companies have products to sell but let’s smile at them and feel a passionate NO THANKS to moderation oh and a big NO THANKS to eating rubbish.  That might sound difficult now but wait until you see me, just a couple of short hours later, if you really want it, you will be saying NO THANKS to everything you don’t need 😉

My Name is Aisling O’Donoghue, I’m the sugar coach.
