Diabetes Management
Diabetes is a group of diseases characterized by elevated blood glucose levels due to defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both. The early symptoms are thirst, hunger, constant fatigue, blurry eyesight, losing feeling or tingling sensation in feet, loss in weight and frequent urination. As the condition progresses, insulin production gradually decreases and eventually reaches a level of deficiency that can no longer maintain blood glucose in the normal range. But the progression of type 2 diabetes can vary considerably and majorly depends on an individual’s lifestyle.
How does an Integrative approach to Diabetes management work?
Diabetes care needs more than just drugs. The integrated approach deals with the whole person including the mind, body and spirit in the journey. Scientific evidence shows how a healthy lifestyle and mindset can have a positive impact on how people deal with diabetes.
Our lifestyle – the processed, artificial and sugary diet, poor exercise movement, poor sleep, the hectic schedules, competitive life, addictions and unrecognized STRESS are the culprits leading to Diabetes. The Integrated approach will not just help you correct your lifestyle but also bring in that little shift in mindset which will help you tackle stress and bring in a positive attitude. You will also lose weight, grow in strength, stamina, energy levels and positivity which is bound to stay with you even after the program is over. This program will not only create a deep shift inside you physically-emotionally-spiritually but it will also empower you to implement it independently.
