You Don't Need Another Diet  - You need to Learn How to Feel Safe in your Body

You've Promised yourself you'd Change more times than you can count and you Meant it Every time!

You’ve bought the gear, downloaded the apps, maybe even joined a gym.
But the stresses of life got in the way. Again.
And now, every time you think about starting, you hear that voice in your head:

“What’s the point?”
“You’ll quit again.”
“You’re not strong enough.”

But here’s the truth:
You’re not broken. You’re just overwhelmed.
And it's not about having more willpower.

The problem is most programs only focus on what to eat, not WHY you eat.

For many of us, eating certain foods has become a strategy for coping with stress, big emotions, and life in general.

You cannot take away someone's coping strategy without giving them something else instead.

That’s why most diets fail — they take away what’s keeping you afloat without teaching you how to feel safe, calm, and nourished.

In this program The Get Nourished 6 Week Challenge, we focus on why you over-eat, teaching you nervous system regulation strategies, so food stops being the enemy and starts being fuel and fun again.

Hi I'm Larissa Halls 

 I’ve been where you are, stuck in the cycle of yo-yo dieting, binging, and feeling like nothing works, no matter how hard I try. I must be broken. 

When I was 24 I found out I had a tumour the size of a small planet growing in my head. After major surgery the Doctor told me if these type of tumour grow back there's an 80% chance it will be cancerous.

I set out to be the healthiest I've ever been in my whole life  because let's face it - no one wants a cancer diagnosis. In the pursuit of optimal  health I even changed careers.

My body had a secret

For over a decade, I ran Health clubs and also worked as a personal trainer and nutrition consultant. I was fit and looked great. I helped others lose weight and get fit… but I was still secretly struggling with my own body.

Then life threw me another curveball. Almost overnight, I gained two dress sizes. The old rules — eat less, move more  didn’t work.

My metabolism had slowed, and I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism and thyroid nodules.

I was stuck, frustrated and really embarrassed

I didn't even get to eat my way fat this time.  I could have just taken meds and called it a day. But I knew my body could heal if I gave it the right environment: Proper Nutrition, Supportive Movement, and Deep Nervous System Support. Slowly, (and I mean slowly) the weight started coming off.

I was grateful and defeated at the same time

Life kept testing me. I had two beautiful babies in my forties, and my body reached its heaviest size ever. I felt grateful, but also defeated — the reflection in the mirror didn’t match who I was inside.

I know what it’s like to have a body that won’t cooperate. I also have a back injury that often makes walking around the block or standing for more than a few minutes a real challenge.

Feeling trapped by pain and a metabolism that seemed broken, I knew there had to be a better way than just dieting and pushing my body harder. It drove me to discover a smarter more gentler approach that was sustainable long term. I had to say goodbye to bootcamps, low carb and deprivation. I started taking the healing approach.

This was the Key that I'd been missing.

That’s when I turned inward. I applied everything I’d learned in my 10 years of managing health and fitness clubs and my 10 years in holistic health, somatic healing, and mindful eating to reprogram my mind, calm my nervous system, and finally heal my relationship with food and my body.

From this journey, I created the Get Nourished 6-Week Challenge — a step-by-step program designed to help you do the same: feel calm, nourished, and in control without diet mentality or deprivation.

Today, I’m over 25kg (55 pounds) lighter, I eat with joy and freedom, and I no longer dread the battle with binge  or emotional eating. I know what to do if I find myself unconsciously over-eating or self sabotaging.

I'm on a life long healing journey, I'm not the "perfect eater" (whatever that is) and I sometimes still find myself reaching for comfort food when I'm stressed but it doesn't  totally derail me like it used to.

I understand the role my nervous system is playing in my food choices and my need to self soothe and this is a part of what I teach you too.

I know what it’s like to feel stuck and beyond frustrated and I also know the way out.

That’s why I created the Get Nourished 6-Week Challenge: to help you nourish your body, calm your mind, and reconnect with yourself — so you can finally feel free and balanced again.
