My future looks so much bigger and brighter

I was overweight, had joint pain, ringing in my ears, I had cravings, poor sleep, and would binge-eat. When I set out to do my hobbies–and if I had enough energy–often the pain would kick in which made it harder than it was worth.

So much has improved since I first started working with Kara…I’ve lost 30 pounds and I can walk without pain and swelling. I’ve reduced my medications for both ADHD and TBI, and have been mentally much clearer–I can remember things without needing to write them down. The ringing in my ears has significantly reduced and the pain that used to come along with the extreme ringing is limited to less than 1x per week when it was 5-8x per day. Emotionally, I feel more balanced. I have more confidence in myself and I have started wearing more colorful clothing. Overall, I feel so good and I am getting more and more energy to get back to my hobbies and do the things I have missed doing.

My business is growing, I am more confident in myself. I smile a lot more because I actually feel good. I recently did a professional photo shoot because I finally felt like I was worthy of being the face of my business. I have finally realized and accepted that I am worth my time and energy.

My future looks so much bigger and brighter. I have started standing up for myself more at work and in life. I don't let other people's shortcomings become my own. I can share my experiences with no shame and I can say “no” to things that aren't healthy for me (mentally or physically). I am confident in moving forward with my business and my life and I am learning just how solid I am in my values and what I want in life.

This program has dramatically changed the trajectory of my health. I no longer expect to need the surgeries that my medical professionals told me to look forward to in the next 5 years. This is the first time I have spent any kind of substantial money on myself and it was more worth it than I could have ever dreamed of.

Chronic Migraines and Insomnia - Gone!

I used to have two to three migraines a week and suffered from insomnia. I had sinus problems and achy legs. These issues are gone! They are no longer “My migraines.”

I like the way I feel on this program. It introduced me to foods I never thought to try before. I feel like I’ll be able to stick to much of it because of how I feel.

To date, I’ve lost 26 lbs and I’m feeling “My glow” again. I’m feeling back to myself with more confidence and less pain. I feel mentally there, too. 

My chronic pain has completely disappeared, and I have energy again.

I was struggling with Long COVID. I developed what my Long COVID specialist called COVID-Fibromyalgia. Chronic all-over body pain, I could barely function in daily life–and my gut was always painful after I ate. I hated food, but I needed energy, so I mostly ate carbs and refined sugars.

Since working with Kara, my chronic pain has completely disappeared, and I have energy again. I dropped a bunch of weight, and I am actually enjoying food and coming up with creative, healthy recipes. My gut feels normal, I don’t feel bloated, I have normal bowel movements, which is kind of a big deal as I don’t ever remember being normal without getting into too much discussion, LOL!

We are still working through some of my old food issues. I am peeling away the layers and know that I can defeat my old strategies.

I honestly never thought I would get better; my life felt out of control, and I was getting more and more depressed, and I could not ride my horses–which is my life. I am forever changed because of this program!

Was it easy? No! Was it worth it? ABSOLUTELY!

The support I got from Kara and Joe is outstanding; I have never felt so supported through some of the most difficult changes I would have to make in my life. I love how I feel now, and I also love that I can do what I love without pain, and I am not sleeping my life away. This program has been LIFE-CHANGING for me; I will be forever grateful to them for it.

I am so excited about my future; I only see healthy, yummy eating in my future and an appropriate weight for myself. I also see myself not stressing about food and enjoying my life, stepping far away from diet culture, and riding my beautiful horses as much as I want to without pain! This program is a lifesaver!

I’ve lost 11 pounds and I’m feeling much more confident and grounded.

Before I began your program I couldn’t lose weight. I was feeling stuck even though I worked out 4 times a week. My sleep was interrupted and I wasn’t having consistent bowel movements.

Since starting the metabolic balancing, I’ve lost 11 pounds and I’m feeling much more confident and grounded. The anxiety and negative feelings surrounding my weight are no longer circulating in my mind. I feel more in control of my eating and not like I need to put something in my mouth to fill time. I also enjoy my food more! The two times I’ve had treat meals, I’ve actually craved going back to my plan and healthier options.

Although I’m still in the beginning stages, I feel like I have a path forward to a healthy relationship with nutrition and food. Meals feel manageable and I am more in touch with what my body needs. I know that if I ever go off the rails, I have something to come back to.

I’ve released 33 pounds, kept it off, and I continue to feel better than I could have EVER imagined!

Before diving into Kara’s program, I had tried six different ways to lose weight over the years. I was frustrated by the initial way they worked and then the ultimate ineffectiveness of them for the long term.

Now that I’ve been through Kara’s program, I’ve released 33 pounds, kept it off, and I continue to feel better than I could have EVER imagined! (My pony is also very Proud of me too). I haven’t felt this good in 20+ years!

I’ve also found a whole new sense of freedom and relief when it comes to nutrition. My body’s metabolism has healed and I’m ever so grateful that I said yes to this program!!

If you’re ready to step into your most healthy self, I highly recommend you reach out to Kara.

The impact on my mental health is extraordinary.

I wanted to let you know I feel so much better.

The impact on my mental health is extraordinary.

I can’t ever go back!

Finally found what works for me.

My anxiety is WAY down! I feel emotionally and spiritually stronger than I’ve ever been in the past.

So much has changed since I started on the My Healthy Foundation Program. It’s been a God-send. I used to have swelling and pain in my joints, I used to have to take a prescription for acid reflux following a surgery for a narrowing in my throat, and I used to have anxiety about needing meds to deal with it.

Wow. So much I feel has changed!! I am so thrilled to report that I am NO LONGER ON MY PRESCRIPTION MEDS FOR ACID REFLUX! I never thought that this could happen for me! I could cry!

My anxiety is WAY down! I feel emotionally and spiritually stronger than I’ve ever been in the past. What a huge relief it’s brought to me. I have lost 15+ lbs so far, and MANY inches! Never was I able to do that in other programs, AND be able to stick to it.

I can see myself being the strong person I’ve always wanted to be. I can see that my goals are right within my reach. I just have to keep pushing for me. For my family. I’m so grateful for the tools that have been given to me to get me there.

Thank you!

Kara’s coaching is insightful.

Kara’s coaching is insightful and she has a genuine capacity to help you navigate easily through uncomfortable issues. Her aliveness is inspiring!

Get more happiness and hope out of life.

Kara is a passionate and heartfelt coach who knows how to help her clients see the big picture and get more happiness and hope out of life. She is a powerful and positive coach that I highly recommend.

I am more comfortable and more confident.

Before I started the program I was overweight, bloated, sluggish which led to diminishing quality of life.

Since starting the program, my energy level has increased. The feeling of being bloated along with inflammation are gone. Belief in my ability to maintain this life are strong. Weight loss has been happening although I am eating more food.

I am more comfortable and more confident. I am eating 3 meals a day for first time in my adult life and doing so has forced me to make that time for myself during work day which makes me more productive through the day.

I am going to be able to eat like other people (at least as often) and maintain this weight loss.

After 6 weeks, I’d lost 20 lbs and no longer felt starving between meals. The hypoglycemia is gone!

Before beginning My Healthy Foundation (formally Reset Your Metabolism) program I was ready to give up on lots of aspects of my life. Severe depression, overweight, terrible autoimmune issues and hypoglycemia plagued me.

I decided to sign on with Kara because I’ve tried so many other approaches to healing but nothing worked so I figured what’s one more?

Within two weeks, things started to shift, and after 6 weeks, I’d lost 20 lbs and no longer felt starving between meals. The hypoglycemia is gone!

And mentally the storm that raged inside me full of anxiety and grouchiness passed. I finally feel calm inside and when it rears up again I backtrack to something off plan I ate.

This was and is a life changer for me. I still have a ways to go to heal all the autoimmune issues I developed over the years eating sugar and gluten and alcohol but I finally feel like I’m on the right path to heal and become my happiest self! I love this program and I love Kara I couldn’t do this without her coaching me along, she’s so kind and knowledgeable. I’m hooked!

the practices I have learned have drastically changed my life.

Punishing my body is like telling my creator that what he gave me as a gift in this form was not good enough. NOTE: Be careful of the things you say, even to yourself. We as creatures of divinity, create as we speak! Pause for a moment and think about the things we say even inside our heads to ourselves.

My whole life I have been fighting battles with my body. I would starve myself and punish my body and genetics for not being the way I felt it should be.

As many times as I have tried to not intentionally destroy my body I have come up short. The past 6 or so months I have been part of a group called the “Love Your Body Lifestyle.” This was created by a kindred soul, Kara Sorensen. Since I have been part of this group I have learned I don’t have to wake war on the creation God has gifted me. But to love and nurture it to great shape and health!

It is so scary to think I would have, without a doubt continued to punish my body for the rest of my life had it not been for the insights and practices Kara has taught me. I love me some me!! Now, my outside is reflecting the love I have for my inside!!

The ware I have waged against myself was mean and cruel. I am bursting with joy as I tell you now, there is a cease fire! Harmony and peace are becoming my natural state. I am so full of gratitude!!!

On a very realistic not, the practices I have learned have drastically changed my life. However I would be remiss if I didn’t tell you sometimes it’s day by day, sometimes hour by hour CHOICE to love yourself. Now, some of the things I do to honor myself and love my body are second nature. Get started!! It will be so very worth it!! As time goes on, it does get easier.

Thank you Kara!! Thank you Love Your Body Challenge (now Lifestyle) group for all the love and constant support!!”

I feel less bloated and don’t have those sugar dips in the afternoons.

Hi Kara, I have changed my habits thanks to you. I drink more water between meals and eat huge breakfasts and lunches with fat, protein and vegetables. I eat my chocolate with my meals and I don’t snack. We eat butter, cheese and yogurt to our hearts delight. By the time I get to dinner, I’m not as hungry.

I feel less bloated and don’t less of those sugar dips in the afternoons. I haven’t weighed myself but I think its too early to tell if I’ve lost weight. I’m training for a race so I don’t tend to lose weight but build muscle instead. Energy is good though.

Thanks so much for your tips. They really worked!

Kara helps us to come back to the place of loving your body.

I absolutely loved the Love Your Body Challenge!!! I came to a point in my life where I was ready to be healthy and have a good relationship with food and my body. I declared this to the Universe, and a couple of days later, I receive an email invitation for this program!

Right away, you can see how much love and care, Kara has put into crafting this program to help us love, learn, and live with our bodies. The Body Blueprint is such an amazing tool in getting crystal clear on what you want of your body, the steps to get you there, and even how to navigate roadblocks and obstacles. The daily body challenges and exercises are varied. They can be fun, liberating, challenging, and sometimes a little scary, but always with the love, support, and encouragement that Kara shows to each of us personally as well as support of the Facebook community group.

I believe all positive change start with love, and that is the foundation of this program. Kara helps us to come back to the place of loving your body and for that, I am ever grateful.

It has been invaluable.

I got from the Love Your Body Challenge a newfound clarity of what I like in terms of taking care of my body. For example I reconnected with the fact that I love muscles in my body. That has been huge for me. Yes, I am unique and I have the right to love muscles..

Also, I connected with the fact that I have a Blueprint of perfection and calm in my body and that I absorbed a different Blueprint of anxiety about being fit and lean from my parents and society, which is not my real Blueprint. Now I am using the tools that you provide to refine my real Blueprint, what is, in fact, perfect for me and my Body. It has been invaluable and I want to continue in this process with you.

Within 2 or 3 days of starting the challenge, huge shifts were happening in my relationship with my body.

Before Kara’s challenge I spent a lot of time beating up my body in an attempt to force it to still be the competitive athlete I was 15 years ago because that was the only way I knew to maintain my active outdoor lifestyle. Needless to say it wasn’t working but I also didn’t know what else to do. Enter Kara and the Love Your Body program.

Within 5 minutes (seriously!) of starting Kara’s challenge a huge lightbulb went off in my head that it didn’t have to be that way. Instead I could draw up a contract of sorts with my body – I could ask it what it wanted from me and in turn I could tell it want I wanted from our relationship. Complete game-changer. I’m not exaggerating that within 2 or 3 days of starting the challenge huge shifts were happening in my relationship with my body, and in turn how I felt both physically and mentally.

I don’t think I can ever thank Kara enough for showing me what was possible. This program and Kara are both pure gold.

I haven’t been able to find anyone that has the extensive and deep skill-set that Kara draws from.

Kara is a diamond in the rough, muddled world of health professionals out there. I can’t recommend her enough. She is a gift to your body and your soul. Kara has:

-made me an expert in how to eat and what to eat

-made me feel my body is functioning optimally

-gotten me excited about nutrition

-healed negative thought patterns around body image

-become a trusted consultant and friend in all of my major health decisions

-empowered me to know my body/numbers so well that I feel confident discussing my issues with other health professionals, and can even screen out those that aren’t properly qualified enough to treat me

I came to Kara desperate to learn how to eat right for my body type, and expecting a few tips and some basic knowledge. What I got was so much more, and I had no idea how much I needed it. I had been struggling with my weight for my entire life, tried all the diets, exercised too much, and could never keep the weight off. Kara’s thorough approach revealed I had an auto-immune disease which prevented me from properly metabolizing food, and greatly affected my energy levels. Under her care, I have used diet, supplements, and self-care techniques to get my “numbers” back on track. Not only that, I can now say I have a huge amount of agency over my energy and my body.

Kara is fluent in several languages of health and wellness, including that secret language that we use to talk to ourselves in our heads (the bargaining, the shaming, the fear). She knows how to address that voice and move us into a relationship that makes us thrive, rather than shrivel.

I haven’t been able to find anyone that has the extensive and deep skill-set that Kara draws from, and this is why I’ve kept her in my back pocket over the years. Although I no longer need Kara’s services as they relate to food (because she has educated me so well), I keep her as a go-to health consultant and trusted second opinion. She is so knowledgeable in the realms of science and energy healing that I never proceed with any other treatment before talking to her.

Overall, I feel happier.

I believe being on the program has helped me focus overall…it has brought a renewed discipline to my day and the way I structure it, to my work, to my personal and professional goals, and overall I feel happier – which in itself is a motivating factor to stay focused, push through challenges and adversity, and stay balanced. It has re-proven to myself that I can achieve my goals, and that it is ok to need some structure and support to get there. I feel the program and knowing I have you as a coach when I need it is a successful combination.

I really can’t remember feeling this well.

I feel great, less anxious, the roller coaster has turned into a kiddie ride, sleeping very well, no heartburn, gas, etc. I really can’t remember feeling this well.

I am very impressed with the results.

I recently participated in your Acupressure therapy to help reduce my food cravings. As someone with a sweet tooth for the last 50 years and a bonafide chocoholic, I didn’t think food therapy would really work, but I decided to give it a try. I am very impressed with the results. Not only did I have 2 lbs. of great chocolate candy in my house untouched for several weeks after the therapy, but I now really think about what sweets I put in my mouth. I only had one session and I feel if I have more, the results will be better still. I plan to send my daughter to you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Kara released me from a persistent carbohydrate addiction.

A 30-minute phone session with Kara released me from a persistent carbohydrate addiction. I continue to be amazed that my behavior has changed. I find myself walking away from the food table at parties after choosing the gourmet cheeses or veggies and dip rather than the chocolates and pastries 🙂

I’m free, free of the devil candy.

I am so happy that I came to you for an Acupressure treatment for my sugar cravings. Not really an addiction, just an inability to stop after one piece of candy…all the way down to the bottom of the bowl. Well, I’m free, free of the devil candy. I really can have just one piece and not feel like finishing the entire dish. I am really impressed with the treatment. You have a lovely manner. Your space is comfortable and relaxing. I am delighted that we have met and I look forward to staying in touch. But thankfully not with “sugar” issues. I will highly recommend you and particularly your treatment for sugar cravings to family, friends and acquaintances. Thank you.

I have a significant reduction in the cravings for carbs.

Kara, I think you are fabulous and appreciated meeting you at the session. I have a significant reduction in the cravings for carbs (crackers) and am craving only healthy foods.

That afternoon, I didn’t obsess over dessert & I haven’t since.

I was very doubtful that Acupressure could help me control my need for dessert every afternoon. But not only did Kara guide me through the food craving session, she also helped me get past the doubt – all 4 times I told her I was feeling it. That afternoon, I didn’t obsess over dessert & I haven’t since. I think the session with Kara has helped me eat more consciously – only when I’m hungry & only until I’m full. I really didn’t think it could work – but it did.

I discovered the true reason behind my sweet tooth and worked on positive reinforcement statements to aid me in the process of breaking these old habits.

Dear Kara: I wanted to let you know how effective our food session was. As you know, I am currently trying to manage my weight loss and I have quite a sweet tooth. This need for sugar and sweets often sabotages my weight loss efforts.

Through my session with you, I discovered the true reason behind my sweet tooth and worked on positive reinforcement statements to aid me in the process of breaking these old habits. Initially, it proved to be very strong and I did not eat sweets for approximately two weeks, then I fell back into the old habits. But, as you predicted, lately I have dropped off eating the sweets and have leveled out to healthy eating habits once again. What a relief!

Thank you for helping me unlock the mystery behind my self-sabotage. I think that this type of feedback could work for any type of compulsion one might need to work on, like smoking or nail biting, etc. It would probably also work for anger issues and helping to calm anxiety.

I have enjoyed all of my acupuncture sessions with you and enjoy having you as my practitioner; however I was most impressed with our ONE food craving session, and wanted to let you know the end results. Thanks again for all your efforts.

If you’re having a problem with chocolate, you should give Kara a call.

I first approached Kara because I was having difficulty with chocolate, and being a personal trainer and wellness coach, I knew this would not do. To say I was skeptical would be a gross understatement, and adding to my skepticism was Kara’s testimonial from a patient who achieved relief from a craving after only one session. I found it to be a fascinating exercise, but truly felt that the first time I was really stressed, I’d fall. Was it successful for me? Absolutely. If you’re having a problem with chocolate, you should give Kara a call.

After getting results for my difficulty with chocolate, I decided to give Kara a real test – my allergic reaction to gluten, which was even more troubling to me. I had been without breads and pasta (heresy for a Sicilian-American) for quite a while and sorely missed them. Long story short…it worked like a charm!

Kara employs this surprisingly straightforward technique with compassion, clarity, respect, a sense of humor where appropriate, great patience and clearly loves her work. If you’ve been plagued by a similar problem, give Kara a call.

Kara is an awesome coach that gets results!

I hired Kara because I had strong cravings for popcorn every afternoon. I’m a peak performance athlete and have been a vegetarian for 25 years and popcorn was my weakness. This troubled me. I didn’t think it was possible, but my cravings were gone in one session, and I actually haven’t had popcorn since our session. I am still amazed!

Kara is an awesome coach that gets results! Anyone that has food cravings should contact her.

I have greatly decreased my sugar intake, started cooking, exercising and enjoying life again.

I have been a Pepsi addict since I first drank the stuff. I would drink 5+ Pepsi’s a day. Well, I know it’s not good for my weight or my cholesterol. Kara introduced me to Acupressure. I truly didn’t believe in it.

However- I have had several Acupressure sessions and although I still drink Pepsi, I only drink one a day. Also, I have greatly decreased my sugar intake, started cooking, exercising and enjoying life again. Hmmm, could it be the Acupressure?

This has helped me enjoy a more healthy diet, and treat myself to the foods I like, as well.

My work with Kara is centered around food cravings. I have had over 30 years of struggle with food, as many women do. Kara helped me resolve these issues so that I can eat and enjoy food again. This has helped me enjoy a more healthy diet, and treat myself to the foods I like, as well. She is caring and understanding in her sessions and really understands how to get to the bottom of my struggles so that I can go on and enjoy my life.

Since our single session, Jack and I have been drinking red wine with no adverse reactions!

My husband and I came to see Kara to get help with our reactions to red wine. We enjoyed drinking wine, but it created allergy symptoms, which wasn’t fun. Since our single session, Jack and I have been drinking red wine with no adverse reactions! We don’t get stuffed up and can breathe easily. We could tell something had changed during the session, and then were delighted when we tested it out. It’s wonderful! So, thank you! I’ve also had great results with the work we did on my carbohydrate cravings.

I feel much more in tune with my body so that I am better able to enjoy the sweets and can stop eating them when my body says enough.

Hi Kara, I have had good results from our acupressure session! I had to laugh because the day after our session, my boyfriend bought me a small box of chocolates for our anniversary. I was excited because I ate only one or two chocolates at a time, instead of the whole box all at once, and found that I really enjoyed them.

Since then, I have been impressed because I still eat and even crave a sweet here and there, but I don’t eat them ravenously in large quantities any longer. I feel much more in tune with my body so that I am better able to enjoy the sweets and can stop eating them when my body says enough.

I am very happy with the results!

She found the heart of the issue in under an hour, and her solution continues to serve me, many months later.

I went to see Kara because I knew there was something off in my relationship with tea and coffee. I noticed that when I was out to coffee with a girlfriend, I didn’t need to drink the whole cup, but when I was home alone, I would go through 2 or 3 cups in the morning without thinking, and then drink black tea with milk and sugar in the afternoon — sometimes ALL afternoon. What I found in my work with her was that the warm, sweet drinks were standing in for love that I desperately wanted, and couldn’t find on my own (I could find it when I was with a friend). My mantra became, “I choose to have all the love I need,” and my desire for those sweet things diminished remarkably. I still drink tea and coffee, but much more mindfully. I found Kara’s approach to my weirdness around tea to be exactly what I needed. She found the heart of the issue in under an hour, and her solution continues to serve me, many months later. I can’t recommend her highly enough to people with “inexplicable” food cravings.

I’ve lost 10 of the 25 pounds I targeted as my goal, without even thinking about it.

I had two sessions with Kara and over three weeks I’ve lost 10 of the 25 pounds I targeted as my goal, without even thinking about it. I just step onto the scale in the morning to witness the miracle continuing. Try Kara’s magic in her office or over the phone. She calls it the Food Craving Solution and there’s a video on her website about this service. I’m here to tell you it works.

Learning TAT has been very empowering and has put me in direct contact with the innate healing power of my body, mind, and spirit.

I came to Kara for help with my PMS after finding the TAT sessions I did with her in the past very successful for alleviating intense sugar/processed carb cravings.

My PMS symptoms consisted of very intense irritability and mood swings, fatigue, body aches, and chocolate cravings. These symptoms usually stared 7-10 days before my period started. This has been going on for many years, and none of the many things I tried helped much.

I went to see Kara for a TAT session 5 days before my period, and continued to do TAT at home on my own for the next few days after the treatment. The irritability disappeared immediately after the treatment, and never returned. The mood swings never happened, and the fatigue, body aches, and chocolate cravings were very mild compared to their usual extreme intensity.

I believed TAT would work for my PMS, because after using it to alleviate a back ache during a TAT session when Kara I realized I could experiment with using it for all types of physical pain–including menstrual cramps. I am usually unable to leave the house the first day of my period due to the severity of my menstrual cramps. Now I just do TAT when the cramps starts, and I can get the cramps to disappear within approximately 20 minutes.

When I used to take NSAID’s for the cramps (i.e. advil or alieve), the cramps would always come back a few hours later and often even stronger, requiring me to take more pills that I know have numerous side effects. With TAT the cramps don’t come back. Learning TAT has been very empowering and has put me in direct contact with the innate healing power of my body, mind, and spirit.

Magic. That's it. It's the only word to describe what Kara provides.

I found Kara by accident actually, now I'll say “fate” led me to her. After years of therapy, diet plans, yo-yo syndrome, I can make the claim “I have control over food!”, it does not control me. Two acupressure sessions, allowed me to acknowledge why I craved. The sessions set me free. Carb and sugar cravings are long gone. This does not mean I never have a thought about breads, desserts or candy, it means I don’t act on those thoughts. The thoughts leave as quickly as they appear. I feel it’s a matter of the brain retraining itself. It”s truly amazing! Food is not a “desire” now, it is a necessity. Kara has a strong desire to help people. Her passion and energy fill the room. She gently leads you to the depths of your concerns, and seems to know “there just may be one more thing to acknowledge.

Kara suggested I go on the cleanse. If I had not had my first two sessions with her, there is absolutely no way I could have stuck with the cleanse. By day 3, I would have sabotaged the program. But I can honestly say, it has been an easy process and I have never felt so good. My energy is up and sleeping is blissful. With Kara’s guidance and expertise, I know I am finally on the road to better health and greater emotional happiness. Kara is your last stop with weight issues.

Plus I must add, Kara offers the highest customer service you will ever experience. She definitely lets you know she is there for you! Fabulous support!

Thank you Kara, for your expertise, your gentle spirit and your passion.

I always leave feeling motivated, clear, and inspired.

Kara is a fantastic and unique coach. She is intuitive, present, and supportive. Kara is highly skilled at helping me work through any emotional or mental obstacles that may come up during our session while keeping me focused on my goal. It’s like having a coach and therapist all at once! I couldn’t be more excited about my progress.

Kara believes in me even when I’m not (yet) able to do so. Her compassion is immense. No matter my state of mind at the start of the session, I always leave feeling motivated, clear, and inspired – and one step closer to reaching my goals. Thank you, Kara!

So far, I have lost 20 lbs and my high blood pressure has lowered to almost normal levels.

I’ve tried so many different programs for weight loss, and none of them were effective–so I was afraid to invest so much money on another program that (in my mind) might not work.

So far, I have lost 20 lbs and my high blood pressure has lowered to almost normal levels

The best part of the program is that it works! I feel (and look) better than I have in a long time. It was worth every penny! I would and have recommended both you and the metabolic balance® program to anyone who expresses dissatisfaction with their health and/or weight.

I don’t eat junk food anymore, quit diet coke and, and I don’t eat rice/pasta/gluten on a regular basis.

I just came back from a dental check-up and I didn’t have any cavities, my gums did not bleed and I was told my mouth was really clean. The reason I’m telling you this is because they were amazed and wanted to know what i had been doing. I told them I don’t eat junk food anymore, quit diet coke and, and I don’t eat rice/pasta/gluten on a regular basis. These are all the things I have been doing because of your program.

I have DEFINITELY noticed a huge difference on my interest levels with this food as well as the amounts I am having.

On the ice-cream front, I have DEFINITELY noticed a huge difference on my interest levels with this food as well as the amounts I am having. My boyfriend bought me an ice cream cake for my birthday on Tuesday and I still have 85% of it left – this is huge and wouldn’t have EVER been the case before. I say ‘RESULT'!

I thought I always had to live with my eating disorder but the gorilla on my back is now gone.

Kara has the magic lamp. You tell her your wish and she will use the magic lamp to make your wish come true. What she did for me is a miracle. I thought I always had to live with my eating disorder but the gorilla on my back is now gone. I am one of the normal people with normal eating habits. If you have any eating disorder, don’t wait. See her right away!!

I feel so much more relaxed and am better able to be in the present.

I went to Kara for some anxiety issues. After some very in-depth analysis, she guided me through a process of self-applied acupressure and focus. Her gentle and non judgmental guidance really helped me to visualize letting go of some of my anxiety and the trauma that caused it. I feel as if I’ve begun to address the traumatic event through my session with Kara, and am beginning to have a different perspective about it. The thoughts, feelings and emotions related to it have totally faded. I feel so much more relaxed and am better able to be in the present, as opposed to constantly reliving these events that contributed to my anxiety.

Kara is gifted and skillful at what she does. And the fact that this was accomplished all over the phone/computer, is wonderful!! I love that I could do this from my home and it was a very lovely and comfortable experience. I can’t wait until my next session!!

Thanks Kara, you rock!

Physically, Mentally, Emotionally, & Spiritually More Connected

I signed up with Kara because I had low energy/fatigue, body aches, and hormone issues. I had less space for others. Made my job/life purpose harder. Held me back from activities because I wasn't able to keep up the pace.

Physically I have lost so much inflammation. I have a better brain to body connection to talk with my body now. Working out is easier. I have so much more energy to do things. I don't crave small things to help get me by.

Mentally & emotionally I am more confident. My emotions flow through easier & quicker. I don't panic really much at all.

Spiritually I feel more connected to myself on all levels. I trust myself & intuition more. I don't rely on outside validation nearly as much.

I feel stronger as a whole being. More able to get through hardships in life. Less reactive to difficult things. So much more calm.

I love how much I have learned. I know I will share that wisdom with others going forward. I now have so much more space to hold for myself & others. I will be able to make deeper connections with my purpose in life.

Thank you so much for your support! For always giving a safe place to work through the frustrations & hardships of healing. That's what really helped me keep going.

I have noticed a huge improvement not only in my physical health but also in my emotional health.

When I first came to Kara, I had incredibly low energy, a lot of anxiety, brain fog, heavy periods that came with debilitating pain, fatigue, heartburn, and headaches. Even though I tried really hard it was impossible for me to lose any weight. I knew something was wrong but even though I went to doctors to try to figure it out, no one was ever able to pinpoint a reason for these symptoms, and I would get dismissed with a “Take 3 Advils on period days and take meds for your anxiety.” I felt really bad most days, which triggered more health anxiety and sent me in spirals.

A lot has changed since we started working together. I lost 15 lbs within the first month! My anxiety has gone down significantly. I have a lot more energy; and the fatigue, dizziness or feeling faint is almost all gone. I have noticed a huge improvement not only in my physical health but also my emotional health. I sleep better. I have better relationships with my friends and family. Overall, I feel better about myself and my negative self talk has decreased significantly.

This is a brand new chapter in my life. I see a future full of opportunities and I am incredibly excited to see what comes next. I feel a lot more prepared to take things on.

I have not only lost 35 pounds, but I have improved my thyroid levels, fixed my insulin resistance, and found some peace around food and my body.

I had gained nearly 40 pounds over 4 years, and really struggled with my blood sugar, emotional eating, and an inability to lose weight despite seeing many doctors and trying many programs. I was also borderline hypothyroid, had diverticulitis flares, and PCOS. I was depressed and devastated, my body felt completely foreign to me.

Since working with Kara, I have not only lost 35 pounds, but I have improved my thyroid levels, fixed my insulin resistance, and found some peace around food and my body. I finally feel like my outside matches my inside, and my confidence in my ability to heal has really skyrocketed. I feel more connected to my life purpose, and more able to deal with stressors without automatically reaching for food.

I have such peace around food, and have a new relationship with alcohol. I feel like the ways I was holding myself back have been uncovered and I feel confident to keep moving forward with my healing.

I am so thrilled to feel like I know how to eat for my body for the rest of my life. I look forward to traveling more comfortably, knowing that I can eat with pleasure and maintain my health simultaneously. I look forward to celebrating my body and my confidence by wearing clothes that make me feel good.

It’s a downright miracle!

I just needed to share that after four years of lingering pain in my left knee while riding, I was able to ride pain free for two hours today. It’s a downright miracle! And I was riding two very different horses, practicing lateral movements and ten meter circles—lots of legs—no less. I’m absolutely delighted. Thank you!

This program was literally a life changer for me.

So much has changed. I feel so much more like myself, I started dating for the first time in years, I have kept a 50-pound weight loss off for over a year, I have been able to eat so many more foods as my intolerances became so much less! And some confidence that my body is in fact resilient when it’s given the proper foods, and correct amounts of foods.

I struggled for so many years…

This program was literally a life changer for me.

My hot flashes disappeared. I lost more weight than I ever thought possible.

Kara expertly guided me through the Metabolic Balance program with clarity, kindness, and professionalism.

After many months (years) of hot flashes, disrupted sleep, sluggishness, weight gain, brain fog, and feeling really blah, I finally reached out to Kara at the start of the summer. Within a few short weeks, all of this turned around. My hot flashes disappeared. I lost more weight than I ever thought possible. I take no sleep aids and have much better moods and energy.

Kara is amazing and her program and support have been life-changing. I’m so deeply grateful.

My confidence is back!

I was so discouraged! About 8 years ago, three things happened at the same time: I went through menopause, I hurt my knee and had to stop running, and I fell in love with a man who loved to feed me. I tried so many things to lose the weight I had gained, and nothing worked. I would lose a little at first and then “plateau.” It didn’t matter how disciplined I was, how much I exercised, how little food I ate, how much I deprived myself. I felt stuck.

I was also experiencing ongoing health problems, from IBS to joint pain, and general low energy and fatigue. I was so tired all the time, yet had trouble sleeping. I was always hungry as well. It was depressing.

What a change! I have lost about 30 pounds–which was what I wanted–and may not be done. It will be interesting to see where my body ends up. I lost 9 pounds in the first two weeks. The hunger and blood sugar spikes are gone. I have A LOT of energy, and I sleep like a baby.

My confidence is back! I no longer feel self-conscious about how I look. I feel well-equipped for the first time in a very long time. I know how to take care of my body, so it can continue to take good care of me.

Thank you Kara–this has been life-changing!

She knows how to lead those in pain to a place of healing and peace.

Kara is highly intuitive and loving and her tender heart shows through in her coaching. It has been a privilege and an honor to work with and learn from her. She knows just how to lead those in pain to a place of healing and peace.

I got my life back. I got my vibrancy back. I have so much more energy.

I felt stuck. My weight would not budge no matter how hard I tried. I was at my heaviest with no end in sight. I was very fatigued and tired of my weight creeping up. I was aware of the things that I was doing that added to my weight gain but I felt helpless—like I just couldn’t stop. I felt overwhelmed by so many things. I knew what I needed to do, but just felt powerless since every time I tried, I failed.

Since doing this program, I got my life back. I got my vibrancy back. I have so much more energy. have control over the things I used to feel helpless about. I lost almost 30 pounds and feel so much better about myself—my skin glows, my clothes fit the way I want them to and I just feel really good and more confident. I now have the energy I need as a very busy CEO of a rapidly expanding company. I am so much more confident as a leader. I can now successfully navigate my way through feeling overwhelmed. I allow people to support me now, which has opened my life up to so much more freedom and true success!

My future feels really bright 🙂 I feel like I have these amazing tools in my back pocket I can use at any time I desire or if I’m feeling like I’m going off course. It’s so much easier now to take back control of the reigns when life gets busy. Life just feels so much lighter and easier and I look forward to each day!

I immediately noticed a shift in my eating habits and cravings.

Working with Kara on my food cravings and emotional eating was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. For as long as I can remember I’ve been an emotional eater. If I was stressed, happy, depressed, angry, or anything else… food was the answer. Food was the thing that soothed me and made me feel better or gave me a little bit of pleasure inside a crappy situation or day. But food was also the thing that was destroying my body and causing me to gain loads of weight over the years. I felt like I had no control of my eating habits and was constantly derailed by cravings. Having to eat cookies or muffins or chocolate every. single. day. and hoping that “tomorrow” was the day I could finally clean up my eating. Well, tomorrow finally came after my first food craving session with Kara.

It was so simple and so easy I didn’t for one second think it would work on me. I was certain I’d be the 1% that didn’t have success… but quite the opposite! I immediately noticed a shift in my eating habits and cravings. After just three sessions, I had ZERO food cravings. I would drive past all my favorite restaurants thinking, “eh, I have stuff at home.” I’d walk into the store past the cookies and muffins and chocolates and think, “I have no idea how to feed myself without cravings!” And I’d leave with healthy foods.

Even now, months and months after our work I am craving free. If I start to eat something more than I like, I stop, just like that. It’s changed my life and my health, and I’ve never been happier to have hired someone for support. After at least 20 years of battling with food, I can finally say I’m craving free and NOT an emotional eater. There’s so much freedom in that. I can’t recommend Kara enough, her work is phenomenal and she’s truly dedicated to freeing her clients from cravings and emotional eating. Love her tons!!”

I don’t think I’ve had any issues at all with food or my body since.

Maybe it took a year or so from the time I worked with you for things to work out slowly, but I honestly, I don’t think I’ve had any issues at all with food or my body since then! I haven’t even thought about it until you wrote, isn’t that amazing? I had a baby girl this past October (she’s amazing!), and my pregnancy was wonderful—one of the happiest, most peaceful times I’ve experienced. But I think that before working with you, the idea of gaining pregnancy weight was probably a hugely anxiety-provoking issue. So I have really come a long, long way.

I’m deeply grateful for your help with everything and hope that you have been well and are continuing to help others as you did me.

I am so grateful for my body, for the tools I have today to take care of myself, and for Kara.

Before I met Kara, I struggled with “binge” eating. I would turn to food to change the way I felt, to try to fill a void inside me. Kara’s TAT acupressure therapy and Metabolic Balance completely changed my life. 2 years ago I lost 20 pounds and I haven’t gained it back. MB is a lifestyle change that transforms the relationship you have with your mind and body. There have been times when I’ve been afraid that I would “go off the rails” and gain the weight back but MB has proven itself to be a very forgiving program. I am so grateful for my body, for the tools I have today to take care of myself and for Kara. I’ve watched several of my girlfriends lose 30+ pounds working with Kara and just recently my own Mom has begun her MB journey. I cannot recommend MB enough!

I feel more ‘connected’ with who I am and who I am here to be than ever before.

I began Kara’s ‘Love Your Body Challenge’ and tried to be really consistent. This was pretty simple to do when I first woke up and again most nights initially on going to sleep. This really simple process began a process of profound changes. I came to realize I actually felt guilty eating meat. I had previously been vegetarian for 15 years but as life changed, and my partner wasn’t vegetarian, I slowly resumed meat eating! I found myself not wanting to eat meat any more and the transition was a no brainer. My body was actually craving vegetarian food. Just recently, I noticed that I have become more confident in myself, with the way I look in my body and the results I am achieving in my work. Previously, my lack of confidence has been a huge barrier in my moving forward. The only thing I have been doing differently is Kara’s challenge! This has been an amazing journey as I feel more ‘connected’ with who I am and who I am here to be than ever before. This has been the best life changing program I have done and would recommend it to everyone. I am so grateful for your program Kara. Thank you.

Kara’s program is an empowering process that nourishes our physical and emotional needs.

I found Kara’s Love Your Body Challenge to be a full-spectrum approach to how we relate to, treat and respond to our body’s unique needs. I was able to set my personal goals and even though losing weight was one of them, I discovered it wasn’t the most important. It’s easy for me to detach and think of my body as “it.” It feels this, it did this, it doesn’t look good. During the challenge I was able to see and make the connection that should seem so obvious – my body is me. I can only love myself if I love my body. It’s a miracle that enables me to accomplish extraordinary things – including just being and living each day.

Now, I understand that my body consciousness as an evolving process. I’m still working towards a weigh that is more ideal for me, and I’m able to do it with gratitude, energy, and guilt-free. Kara’s program is an empowering process that nourishes our physical and emotional needs – absolutely no deprivation found here.

Especially wonderful.

And I must thank you, Kara. More and more I feel that my emotions do not control me, but in fact fuel me. This week’s homework is typical in that regard and especially wonderful 🙂

I am amazed at the results.

This was my first experience with both Acupuncture and Acupressure and I have nothing but positive things to say. I am amazed at the results and the space is perfect, great Los Gatos location, spa-like office and Kara is incredible! She is clearly very knowledgeable and well educated in both Acupuncture and Health/ Nutrition. One of the things I love (besides the results!) is her non-judgmental nature. She is very warm and appropriately clinical. She has a great presence and confidence but is not pushy . I would highly recommend working with Kara, she can help with almost any issue around body, mind and food cravings.

I am 10 pounds lighter, sleep better and have more energy than ever before.

Before I started the program with Kara, I struggled with numerous health issues that I had no idea were directly attributed to my diet. The biggest struggle was my acne prone skin and my inability to fully balance my hormones. I also suffered from low blood sugar attacks and was constantly hungry. I would bring snacks into work meetings because my stomach growled if I went more than 2 hours without eating. I also dealt with stomach aches on a regular basis and digestion issues.

All of this changed after starting the program. I am 10 pounds lighter, sleep better and have more energy than ever before. I rarely have stomach issues (only if I don’t follow my plan) and never have to worry about my stomach growling or snacking between meals. Most importantly, my skin has cleared up. I was hesitant at first and thought how can simple changes to my diet have such a huge impact my overall health, but I had no idea how specialized the program was for each person. The food plan I was assigned consists of foods that I really enjoy eating and I’ve never felt as nourished and satisfied by my diet as I do now. The is something I’ll continue for the rest of my life. I can’t imagine eating and feeling differently.

In the first month I lost 10 lbs!!!

When I first started working with Kara (and her program), I had literally tried EVERYTHING I could think of to try to get back to my healthy weight. I had eliminated sugar, wheat and dairy and worked with a health coach and had still only managed to lose 10 lbs over a year. I was so frustrated that nothing was working.

When Kara told me that while working with her my hormones would become balanced and even my hypoglycemia would go away I did not believe her, but I was more than willing to give her program a try. In the first month I lost 10 lbs!!! I was so excited. As promised even my hypoglycemia symptoms went away and I’ve never felt better.

I have lost a total of 25 lbs (a lot for my 5’2″ frame) and I have never felt better, I highly recommend working with Kara and her program.

I can’t believe I am not snacking!

I can’t believe I am not snacking! I used to be the queen of snacking! Sometimes I even forget and go almost 6 hours and I’m still fine! When I’m hungry, it’s just something I notice and not something that feels like an emergency. I’m obviously not binge eating at night either which is another miracle unto itself. I never thought I’d escape that!

Thank you for your work on my sugar addiction.

Thank you for your work on my sugar addiction. It has definitely been a different feeling (yet not so different feeling) not having a pull to the sugar. I’ve had opportunity to order desserts and I’ve declined because it just doesn’t interest me whatsoever. Additionally, I have eaten a little sugar and had no thoughts about the fact I did it until I reviewed my day before sleep. Wonderfully weird indeed!

That procedure is amazing, and I am a true believer.

I wanted to get back to you and let you know of my results from the Acupressure. As you know I have concerns with over indulging in sweets.

The weeks following I did not and still do not eat much sugar. I used to eat many M&M peanuts every night, I have not had any in over three weeks. When I drank coffee I would add sugar, I drink coffee without using any sweeteners, don’t get me wrong I can still eat sweets, but I don’t have the urges any more. I mean I really have to think about it to eat sweets. I don’t enjoy them less, I just have to want them more. Before, the eating of sweets was a daily ritual and it was more than one time a day. Now I lack the cravings for sweets that used to be constant. I tell you, that procedure is amazing, and I am a true believer.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

After one session, I have complete control over what I eat.

I came in to see Kara after Christmas ’07 for help with my chocolate and sugar cravings (addictions). Amazingly after one session, I have complete control over what I eat. I went shopping that very night and while the thought of chocolate entered my mind, I was not interested in buying anything sweet.

I no longer crave sweets every day and on the odd occasion when I indulge, I enjoy it and I am not later overrun with cravings to eat more or go out and buy sweets. Perhaps the best side effect is that I am more inclined to eat healthy foods and feel satisfied. I no longer overeat, which, along with an exercise program, has led to me losing 10 lbs. in a month. Hooray for Kara and her skills and technique!

I recommend her to any and all who have food issues and have a real desire to make a true and permanent change for the better in their lives.

I have been able to stop drinking coffee.

I have been able to stop drinking coffee, and in general, not eat too many sweets due to this method. For example, I used it for ice cream and have not really had a craving…

I did some food craving sessions with Kara and was amazed at the immediate shifts I experienced.

I’ve always had a sweet tooth. And as I whipped through a box of Girl Scout cookies earlier this year, I realized it was a little out of control.

I did some food craving sessions with Kara and was amazed at the immediate shifts I experienced. Right away I noticed that when I did eat sweets, my taste buds felt neutralized. It was like I didn’t have to have another cookie – one was enough. I love that in working with Kara, it’s not about giving up foods I enjoy, rather it’s about not feeling run by food anymore.

Kara’s calming and caring demeanor made me feel totally comfortable throughout the entire process. She’s supportive and non-judgmental, which is great when you’re sharing your personal habits and feelings around a sometimes sensitive subject. If you want to change your relationship with food, please contact Kara.

Since my session, my morning blood-sugar levels have dropped from the 120s to the 80s and 90s, and it’s been a lot easier to resist chocolate.

In 2005, I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. As a lifelong mass consumer of chocolate, I suddenly had to reconcile my desire to eat a lot of chocolate at night before I went to sleep with its direct impact on my health.

Kara did a great job in a single short session to help me with my chocolate cravings. It wasn’t difficult, painful or embarrassing, but it did get to the root of the problem.

Since my session, my morning blood-sugar levels have dropped from the 120s to the 80s and 90s, and it’s been a lot easier to resist chocolate. I think what Kara did was “willpower helper,” taking my desire to change things and giving me the edge to keep my resolution.

I recommend it to anyone who has to change their life patterns in order to avoid specific food cravings.

The emotional charge is gone. I feel so relieved!

I had a session with Kara Sorensen regarding my cravings for coffee. I have craved coffee for over 20 years and for a period of time, I drank it every day. However, I got headaches in the middle of the night and even though coffee took away the headache the next morning, it was uncomfortable to wake up with a headache.

For that reason, I stopped drinking coffee several years ago to eliminate my headaches, but the craving never ceased. I wanted coffee every day of my life. Kara assisted me regarding this craving. At the end of an hour, I was clear of the conflict and realized this went way back to my religious upbringing. Now, I’m able to drink coffee or leave it, as the emotional charge is gone. I feel so relieved!

All of my food anxiety was gone. It was the craziest thing! I was so much happier, and my body image improved dramatically.

Before my Acupressure session with Kara, I worried about food often. What have I eaten today? How will it affect how I look in my clothes? Should I go on a diet again? These were not new questions. I asked myself these things several times a day. It was tiring. I knew something was wrong with this, and that it was not how I wanted to live my life.

It started when I joined a national weight loss program. I had been overweight my entire life, and with this plan I lost 30 pounds in about 5 months (20% of my body weight). The first 20 come off easily, but it was the last 10 that were more difficult. I exercised for at least an hour each day and watched everything I ate. I planned my meals, and while I was eating one meal, I was already thinking about the next. If I deviated from my menu for the day, I would beat myself up for eating something that I shouldn’t have. It affected my sleep, and I was blacking out.

I first went to a psychiatrist and confessed that I spent a lot of time thinking about food. She saw nothing wrong with this and said, “Well, if you find yourself obsessing, give yourself a time frame where you’re allowed to think about it, and when that time is up… stop.” Easier said than done. Nothing changed.

In fact, things got worse. I was often tired and irritable, so I decided to find a nutritionist. We went over my average daily caloric intake and exercise routine. She helped explain the physiologic reasons behind my obsession with food. This was helpful… I wasn’t crazy! My body was reacting in a totally “rational” manner. Her advice was to eat more, and specifically add more carbohydrates to my diet. I did and was almost instantly able to sleep through the night without waking up and obsessing about food.

I felt better and had more energy, but then I started to gain weight. This did not sit well with me. I had worked so hard to lose that weight… Why should I allow myself to gain any of it back? I went through a time where I would be content with my food intake, but then the pendulum would swing in the other direction (usually after I would find that certain clothes no longer fit me the way they used to) and I would severely restrict my food intake. This was not fun, and I often wondered whether I could ever have a “normal” relationship with food.

This went on for months, and then I found Kara. I was interested in acupuncture for an unrelated matter, but somehow, the “food issue” came up in my conversations with Kara. She thought that Acupressure might be able to help me. I always felt so comfortable with Kara, and hoped that this would finally be the breakthrough I needed.

The Acupressure session itself was different from what I had imagined. I thought that Kara would apply pressure to various parts of my body (sort of along the lines of needles in Acupuncture), but no… the pressure came from my own two hands. Kara guided me through a series of questions, and the answers that came out of me were things that I had not shared with anyone else – ever. It was all so effortless and everything made so much sense. After the session, it literally felt as if great weight had been lifted from my shoulders. All of my food anxiety was gone. It was the craziest thing! I was so much happier, and my body image improved dramatically.

I would not say that I am entirely healed. The mind plays funny tricks on you, and old fears/insecurities come back to the surface. I look forward to another session, and continuing to break old habits that have plagued me for years. With Kara’s help, I believe that I can definitely make this happen.

I now have control when I am around these foods.

The process you did with me around my cravings for cake, frosting, and pasta were very effective. I have never been overweight, but I was tired of expending sooooo much effort to eat right and avoid overeating certain foods. I wanted to just feel peaceful about food.

We did three sessions. It was a simple and unobtrusive process. More psychological than I had expected. Perfectly painless, that’s for sure.

I now have control when I am around these foods. I still like them, but when they’re around, I am not obsessed with them. This is a wonderful change. I think I need one more treatment to deal with butter but I am completely thrilled with the results I have so far!

Just yesterday, I walked past a piece of cake on a buffet table that looked delicious, mocha, my favorite and kept on walking because I wasn’t the slightest bit hungry and knew I didn’t want that much sweet stuff at that time of day.

I find her work to be very helpful and life changing.

Kara helped me identify what emotional / thought patterns were causing me to turn to food to avoid the overwhelm that takes over my life sometimes. I find her work to be very helpful and life changing. She has a warm and friendly demeanor, which automatically makes you feel at ease. She is highly knowledgable and has extensive training in Nutrition, Chinese Medicine, and TAT. Highly recommended!

I haven’t had any problems with cake since the treatment.

It is efficient, graceful, grounded, direct, and above all – it really works.

I have had a great interest in the last decade as to how to handle food-related issues and addictions. I am trained in many modalities and have done extensive research. My experience with TAT and Kara Sorensen has been a turning point for me. It brings together the best of all the other systems I studied and tried. It is efficient, graceful, grounded, direct, and above all – it really works. Not only does TAT deliver lasting solutions to the “problem” I came with, but it gently opens new pathways of possibilities that I hadn’t even considered. Quite frankly, after my first session, I was shocked. Shock soon wore off and transformed into a deeply peaceful satisfaction and excitement about what I had finally found. I cannot recommend Kara enough – she has a deep passion and proficiency with this work. I am very pleased.

Your expertise and healing knowledge have made such a difference in my life.

Just a few words of gratitude for all your kind help throughout the year. Your expertise and healing knowledge have made such a difference in my life. Seeking that all too difficult to find healthy balance is made easier with you. I look forward to working with you this coming year.

It was truly a life changing experience!

I highly recommend doing the standard process liver cleanse from Kara Sorensen. It was truly a life changing experience! During and after the cleanse, my clarity increased, my energy levels increased, my skin was glowing (I actually looked younger), my sleep improved and digestion improved, my PMS subsided, my moods were more balanced, and my joints felt more limber. My friends said to me, “Wow you look great! What are you doing differently?” Then, I told them about the cleanse and they were excited and interested in it.

I purged out my impurities, lost my sugar and caffeine cravings, lost weight, my skin cleared and I have a lot more drive and energy.

I started seeing Kara late 2010 on the advice of a friend who was concerned about my blood sugar fluctuations and the moodiness that went with them. I talked about my issues with Kara and we started acupuncture which helped considerably.

She told me about a cleanse that helps control sugar cravings and I did the 21-day liver cleanse in January 2011. All I can say is WOW! The cleanse changed eating habits. I look and feel great!

I purged out my impurities, lost my sugar and caffeine cravings, lost weight, my skin cleared and I have a lot more drive and energy.

It really was the best thing I could have done for myself and am going to do this cleanse twice a year.

Seeing Kara has changed my life. We got the food cravings under control, which helped me with my mild depression and moodiness. I also shed several pounds in the process.

She inserts the needles as gently as possible and listens to you when you have a problem. Acupuncture and acupressure are excellent tools to help you get your body on track.

If you have ever wanted to give this a try, see Kara, she really is the best and so knowledgeable about herbs and food.

I lost 9 pounds on the cleanse and am feeling really good.

Thanks Kara!! I really enjoyed the cleanse! Have rediscovered that healthy eating is delicious and have so many new meals in my repertoire. I get complimented on my skin all the time, people keep asking me what products i’m using! I actually laughed this morning because I had the option of eggs or other things and I just decided to go with my shake because I have really grown to enjoy them, strawberry and carob with a touch of vanilla and cinnamon! I have also found some great teas that I am hoping will permanently replace coffee in my life, although the longing for it has not quite gone away yet.

I am also so glad I met you and am happy to have a wonderful acupuncturist in my life again! Your work on my back was amazing!!

Also, I lost 9 pounds on the cleanse and am feeling really good about getting back to a weight and state of health where I am comfortable in my body and feel able to maintain it without “dieting”. Thanks for everything and I will be in touch in the next couple of weeks about the adrenal regimen. We will definitely make this an annual event maybe even 2x per year.

The beauty of this program is that the reward comes very fast.

I was working out 6-7 days/week, and eating low cal healthy foods, while still gaining weight. I was tired of being a slave to food. Re-setting my metabolism makes sense – I can continue exercising and eating right and reap the benefits of staying slim.

I am happy that I can fit into my favorite pants again, and I am mad that I have to buy new work clothes, since they are too big for me now. And this is all in the first 3 weeks of the program! I lost several inches and 80% of my weight loss goal in the first two weeks of starting the program. I am not hungry and hardly ever think about food.

I like not feeling hungry and enjoying the foods that I prepare for myself. In addition, I have a lot of energy. I like that I have control over food and weight and the fact that I am learning a lifestyle, not a fad. Working with you, I enjoy your enthusiasm and support during my progress. You are there for the ups and downs and want to have the right solution for all the issues that may come up

I was afraid that it might be very stringent in what types of food I can eat and the fact that I had to weigh food. I was also skeptical that this may be another failed attempt on my part to achieve weight loss. As for the program, people should know that it helps them for EVER. It is not a short term solution, but a life change. They should know that they would need to buckle up for few weeks and work hard at first, but the beauty of this program is that the reward comes very fast.

I would highly recommend this program for anyone who struggled like me.

Kara definitely has the solution to your food issues.

When I first started to see Kara I was having some major issues with food cravings. Specifically sugar. I was a little skeptical at first because I have tried so many other ways to get control of my sugar intake and they all failed. Kara definitely has the solution to your food issues. We got to the source of the problem and began to do the healing and resolve the underlying reasons for my food cravings. Kara is wonderful and her service is amazing. Kara changed my life!

The best part is I don’t miss it or feel deprived.

Kara is beyond Fabulous! I started seeing her to help with some pain issues I was having & ended up with so much more than pain relief. We all have so many ailments that we don’t even recognize or have just come to tolerate. But guess what we aren’t supposed to be in pain, tired or overeat. I did a food craving session with Kara for my addiction to sweets, every night before I went to bed I had to have some kind of sweet. Which is the worst for weight loss! I did this session 6 months ago and I not only stopped the bedtime sweet addiction but overall have a handle on how much I do eat. Made it thru the holidays without eating every candy, cookie or cake in sight with flying colors. The best part is I don’t miss it or feel deprived.

So if you go in for some back pain don’t be surprised if you come out PAIN & CRAVING FREE 🙂

Thank you Kara!!

Empowering!

I was glad to jump into the Love Your Body Challenge with Kara. I’ve worked with her before and had such positive experiences, so I trusted her to both create a safe and loving space and offer tools that I can use whenever and as often as I need them. I also recently restarted the “My Healthy Foundation” program Kara offers and thought this challenge would help me feel even more supported and connected to my “why” (Why do I want to love my body? Why do I want a healthy body?). The Love Your Body Challenge definitely did that, and then some!

Now that I’ve completed this challenge (it’s my second time), my awareness of what it means to love my body, to love myself, has deepened, while my capacity for joy has expanded. I noticed more about myself, noticed more about loving my body, noticed more about shifting ways of thinking that no longer serve me.

Since I’ve done one of these challenges before, I have a stronger foundation than I did the first time. This challenge was different though- it goes so much deeper and further than the one I did previously.

I loved it so much! I would absolutely recommend this to my family and friends–or anyone embarking on a healthy lifestyle.
