You've put in so much effort, what if it doesn't need to be so hard
Tired of Fighting Your Body? Discover a Kinder Way to Your Natural Weight.
If you've spent years battling with your weight, feeling frustrated and disconnected from your body, know that there's a different path. At The Healing Barn, we understand that weight loss isn't just about willpower or restrictive diets. It's about understanding the intricate connection between your body, your emotions, and your inner sense of safety. We offer a gentle, holistic approach that honours your unique journey and supports you in finding your natural, healthy weight without force or struggle.
It's Not Just About What You Eat – It's About Why You Eat.
You've likely tried countless diets, focusing on calories and restrictions. But what if your body is holding onto weight for reasons that go far beyond simple overeating? We delve deeper, exploring:
The Power of Food Choices (Our Low-Carb/Keto Informed Approach): We'll guide you in understanding how different foods impact your body's hormones and energy levels. Our approach leans towards low-carb and ketogenic principles, not as a rigid restriction, but as a way to nourish your body and support natural balance without the need for constant calorie counting.
The Language of Cravings (The Emotional Connection): Those intense urges for specific foods often carry emotional messages. We'll gently explore the feelings and experiences that might be driving your cravings, helping you to address the root causes rather than just fighting the symptoms.
Your Nervous System and Your Appetite: Your autonomic nervous system plays a significant role in your hunger, satiety, and stress responses. We'll help you understand how your nervous system might be influencing your eating patterns and guide you towards greater regulation.

Is Your Body Holding Weight for a Reason? Exploring the Safety Factor.
Sometimes, consciously or unconsciously, our bodies hold onto extra weight as a form of protection. This can be rooted in past experiences, emotional burdens, or even a subconscious belief that being smaller might be unsafe. We create a safe and compassionate space to explore these underlying beliefs:
Understanding the "Safety in Size" Phenomenon: We'll gently explore if your body might be holding onto weight as a way to feel safer, more grounded, or protected from perceived threats.
Building Inner Trust and Security: Our work focuses on fostering a deeper sense of inner safety and security, allowing your body to naturally release what it no longer needs to hold onto.
Shifting from Resistance to Gentle Release: We move away from the battle with your body and towards a collaborative approach, honouring its innate wisdom and allowing for a natural and gentle release of excess weight.

Through gentle inquiry and powerful techniques like the Belief Code (with Melissa), we'll help you uncover and shift any subconscious beliefs that might be contributing to holding onto weight.
Ready to take the next step on your journey?
Melissa’s work with the Emotion Code and Belief Code is powerful in addressing the hidden layers behind weight struggles. So often, emotional eating and the body’s resistance to releasing weight are not signs of failure - but signals. They point to trapped emotions and limiting beliefs beneath the surface, quietly shaping your choices and protecting you in ways you may not even realise.
Together, we gently listen beneath the cravings and behaviours, tuning in to your body’s innate wisdom. This isn’t about control - it’s about curiosity and compassion. I hold a safe, grounded space where you can begin to trust your body again, release what’s been carried for far too long, and allow profound shifts to unfold.
As emotional weight lifts, the physical body often follows - naturally returning to its own sense of balance and ease.
Scott’s training as a PreKure Health Coach, combined with his own journey through decades of weight struggles, brings a powerful blend of knowledge and authentic empathy. Having tried diets, intense exercise, and willpower alone — only to find the weight returning — he knows firsthand that lasting change doesn’t come from force. It comes from understanding.
With a profound, lived understanding of the mind-body connection, Scott is here to walk beside you — not to push or prescribe, but to gently provoke deeper exploration into the emotional layers that often sit beneath the surface. Together, you’ll uncover the patterns and beliefs that may have kept you stuck. And from there, build a sustainable path that respects your body’s innate ability to heal, rebalance, and return to its natural state of well-being.
What if this journey to your natural weight also reconnects you to your truest self?
