IBS is a vicious disorder. It keeps you guessing about when symptoms will hit and what triggers them, whether it's persistent constipation, disruptive diarrhea, or that debilitating pain that makes you wish you never had to eat again.
And food – something you ate yesterday just fine might be your worst enemy today! You can never be completely sure whether your next meal will be digested normally, or will it cause you to cancel all plans and call in sick the next day.
The pain of having to keep dashing to the toilet all day long, or not going for a week, feeling like you are carrying a rock around your waist everywhere you go are bad enough, but the fear of symptoms showing up at the worst moment is often even worse.
Imagine a life where IBS didn’t control you anymore. That you knew your triggers and how to avoid them. Or that when symptoms hit, you know how to dial them down and make them go away sooner than before. That you can finally make travel plans and confidently buy your favorite foods in the grocery store.
I am Anna-Kaisa, an IBS dietitian, yoga teacher and meditation teacher, and these are my goals for you. I want you to feel confident that the things you are doing to ease symptoms are actually doing so on a deep level, all the way down to where symptoms start (read more about the root cause of IBS in my blog).
With my unique combination of evidence-based nutrition therapy, gut healthy lifestyle habits and nervous system calming yoga practices, you can rest assured that everything that could contribute to your symptoms is sorted out in a true holistic approach to IBS. And yet, I don’t believe in drastic measures – everything I suggest should feel doable and fit your life naturally.
