I am an Addiction specialist with a focus on sugar! I am HAM and SUGAR® licensed and certified by Bitten Jonsson, and coach in Bittens SUGAR® training. I have written the book “Small sugar bombs and adult children” (in Swedish only), I am a conscious breathing instructor, certified in Relapse Prevention Therapy by Cenaps Corporation, and have a You Tube channel where you can find inspiration and knowledge!
My special area is children and sugar (addiction) and in my book (see above) I give you knowledge of sugar addiction and practical advice on how to make dietary changes with your children, about parenthood and being a parent in recovery from sugar addiction. My hope is to support other parents so that they can make the change they are ready for and find ways to support young people who want to make changes and live a healthy life.
I find breathing one of the most important tools to help the body and brain back to balance and handle cravings! The importance of breathing is not new. Only a few minutes of oxygen deficiency can cause major permanent damage to the brain. But it is important not only THAT we breathe, but also HOW we breathe. Breathing is something we have with us all the time, and you may not be aware of it, but it affects all areas of our lives!
You can find me at a dairy farm in the western part of Sweden (Värmland couty) where I live together with my husband and my children. I am passionate about giving knowledge of good food and how we produce it. Meat is not a burden on our planet!
I have worked as an Addiction specialist since 2010 and have a lot of experience working with dietary changes with children and parents.
I myself have aa addiction where sugar was the most difficult outlet with the most consequences. When I started my recovery journey in 2006, my children were young, and my fear of them developing a sugar addiction led me to do all the research about children and sugar, food and parenthood that made me write the book. My children were born in 2002, 2004 and 2009.
I have my own peronal experience, and have witnessed how most of my clients, by eating LCHF and/or Keto, have been able to alleviate deep depression and have seen how body, soul and brain can become healthy, functional and strong on the right fuel mix; by removing sugar, flour, sweeteners, processed food and refind carbohydrates.
I take calls via zoom and receive clients all over the world. Contact me to book what’s right for you!
