About LIO
LIO has one wish and it’s that you will always find your way back to yourself, no matter how far you’ve stumbled away.
Since 2015, LIO knew that the only way to a life in full is to live from the inside out.
So many of us lose ourselves to our environment, relationships, and obligations. We forget that whatever is on the inside manifests on the outside.
Whatever we eat (put inside of our stomachs) we see on the outside. Whatever we feel and think inside our hearts, will always show up in our words, actions, and reactions to the outside world. It will even show up in our body posture, skin, immune system, etc.
With every trauma (and sometimes a difficult event), we disconnect from ourselves. In our hectic lives, it’s easier to disconnect from the present moment than to cope with the stressors at hand. We end up making all the right noises, but never truly feeling life through. Being so far away from ourselves makes it hard to authentically express who we are.
LIO is a counselling practice that brings a whole new meaning to the words holistic wellness.
All our services and events move from the concept that a healthy mind, a healthy body, and a healthy life are inseparable. We do not only offer support through various counselling techniques. We also focus on what you find at the end of your fork and how that is influencing your mind, your relationships, and your life. Holistic care is finally an option!
This is also why we believe you deserve a wellness team that includes your doctor, psychologist, psychiatrist, dietician and of course LIO in your corner.
Through every session, service or event we aim to be a lighthouse for those making their way back to themselves.
May you go in search of healing, but instead find yourself.
About Me
Hi, I’m Ilana,
I’m your coach here at LIO. I did my honours in counselling and am a certified nutritional coach. I’m a queen introvert, in love with the health and wellness of life! I love travelling, exploring and I am pretty sure you can lock me up in a room with books, some raw cacao, my cat, and I will be the happiest person on earth. A day without nutritious juice is not a day at all. Finding ways to heal my body and mind through natural, earthy means is one of my favourite pass times. I love sharing my journey of healing cancer cells, depression, and anxiety disorder. Let’s get to know one another. Let’s journey together to wellness in a way that is simple and makes sense to your unique self.
