Our Mission: Going Beyond Health At Beyond Health, our mission is simple—and radical: To help people go beyond health. Going beyond health means going beyond what most people have been taught to accept as “normal.” Redefining What It Means to Be Healthy Most people consider themselves healthy if they are functional—able to get out of bed, go to work or school, take care of family responsibilities, and squeeze in some enjoyment along the way. They may struggle with allergies, digestive problems, headaches, fatigue, stubborn weight gain, skin or hair issues, or frequent aches and pains. Often, these concerns are “managed” with over-the-counter remedies, yet the person still considers themselves healthy. As time goes on, medications are added to manage more serious conditions—arthritis, osteoporosis, diabetes, heart disease, cognitive decline. We’ve known people taking multiple prescriptions who still describe themselves as healthy. Eventua…

It never seems like you have enough time - or motivation. You think your dreams and aspirations are within your grasp, but no matter your efforts, they always feel just out of reach. Don't give up or think of your efforts as futile; instead, you might ask yourself, how do you get the energy to achieve your goals and manifest your dreams? What fuels you? To start, the goals and dreams themselves, if they speak to your heart and soul, energize your spirit. But you also need physical health to manifest them.

True health means every cell in your body is bursting with vitality! That is the vision for you that drives us at Beyond Health - to go beyond conventional definitions of health and beyond what you may have imagined for yourself. No matter where you are now, we know…

Beyond Health’s approach to weight loss, presented in Raymond Francis’ Never Be Fat Again, (NBFA) is based on the theory of one disease and two causes. We say there is really only one disease—malfunctioning body cells, and two reasons why cells malfunction—they are deficient in needed nutrients and/or they are being poisoned by toxins. Overweight is a type of disease, and as better health is achieved, the body will naturally lose excess weight.Intuitive eating (IE) is an anti-diet approach to weight loss which seeks to help people regain a lost or weakened ability to “hear” and respond to body cues relating to hunger and satiation. Regaining this ability, it is hoped, will lead to losing excess weight. Both IE and NBFA agree that diets don’t work. Thought they can lead to short-term weight loss, most of this weight is regained over time. They also agree that diets are usually harmful and enforce the bad habit of overriding internal body cues. Following the strategies of IE that we…
