Hi, I’m Luana.

I’m a certified NLP Practitioner and Integrative Nutrition Health Coach, but I also have a background in Hospitality, Marketing Communications and Sales. All of which mean that I have a very dynamic, hands-on approach to my work.

I am here to help you feel connected to your body and mind by guiding you to understand the root causes of your imbalance. I’ll show you how to nourish yourself in a natural way, in harmony with your real needs to rediscover yourself and help you reach your true potential and overall well-being.

My Story

 

  • For those who don’t know me, I’m a very energetic and upbeat person, but a few years ago, I experienced a profound sense of indifference and detachment to my life.

    I lost my mojo. I was broken.

    Despite being someone who was very controlling over their mind and body, I felt completely out of touch, and out of control with myself. I had to act a certain way; look a certain way; think a certain way; to be happy.

    I ate relatively well most of the time, was in a happy relationship, had good friends and was not in any real danger. Yet, I felt lethargic, melancholic, and always defensive; as if people were out to get me.

  • One day, the controlling side of me led me down the right path for once. I picked up a home decluttering book, and thought to myself, if I can make my apartment perfectly tidy and organised, I’ll be happy. It turns out I was right.

    The simple act of being honest with myself, completely aware of all my possessions, discarding what no longer served me while expressing gratitude towards those objects, made me re-discover the feeling of empowerment, instead of the limiting feeling of control. And with empowerment, came freedom.

    It left me wondering, what else could I apply this to? My mental health, my nutrition, my finances, my spirituality? YES, all of the above.

  • With the help of an “NLP” coach, a “Pegan” lifestyle, a spiritual book “A New Earth”, a budgeting/financial tracker and the secret ingredient of empowerment, I was reborn. I felt humble, grateful and aware. Awareness gave me visibility and hope. I felt that my discovery of a simple, natural, holistic lifestyle change should be shared and made available to all those who could benefit from it.

    Since then, I became an NLP practitioner, refined my take on the Pegan diet (by Mark Hyman) and trained to be an Integrative Nutritionist at IIN.

  • I have been working with both men and women, internationally, between the age of 26-64, who work in real-estate, marketing, finance, cyber security, and homemaking. I, and they, have been amazed by the results.

    I feel so grateful that I now get to support individuals of all walks of life on their own journey of awareness, wholesome nourishment and realisation of their true potential.

  • This is something everybody needs to at least try

    “Awellness was instrumental in getting me to think about my body-mind correlation. Before the program I thought of the two as entirely separate, but it got me thinking of the implications of one against the other. I now have a greater appreciation for the fact that we are in fact what we eat in the sense that I realize the impact of what & how I ingest and the actual influence it has on my sense of wellbeing. I can’t emphasize enough how skeptical I was prior to the Reset & Revive Programme. This is something everybody needs to at least try”.

  • Don't think about it, just do it

    “I don’t often write these reviews, but my experience with the Reset and Revive Programme was so overwhelmingly positive, I decided I really needed to. I’m usually quite skeptical, but the results were there to see and feel before I knew it. I went into the program with the chief objective of losing weight. Resetting my metabolism and gut health were secondary goals. I tended to eat way more than I needed to, always going for those extra starters and desserts. In my late 20s, I was afraid that if I didn’t do something about it now, it would be too late. I lost 12kg in 6 weeks! I was completely beside myself. 95kg down to 83kg. I also felt energized, mentally positive and ready to take on any challenges that came my way. Not only did I feel better across the board, but in retrospect it was a very simple process and not at all daunting. I would highly recommend Awellness and the Reset and Revive program to anyone that is looking to get back in tune with their body’s natural state. Luana and team are extremely helpful and professional. Don’t think about it, just do it!”

  • An absolute game changer

    “After several years of working in a London office and neglecting my diet/health, I was feeling pretty unhappy with my weight and energy levels. The Reset and Revive Programme was an absolute game changer for me. From the very first meeting with Luana, I knew that I was in good hands! The process felt very tailored to my situation and goals, with all the information laid out clearly and concisely. The results that followed absolutely blew me away as I dropped more than 10kg in just over a month, giving an enormous boost to my physical and mental wellbeing. Aside from the immediate improvements, I now have a far greater appreciation for the benefits and rewards that come from a more informed approach to one's diet. It is incredibly rewarding to see such a huge change in such a short time and I am infinitely better prepared to take control of my weight/health for the future. Thank you Luana!”
