Help for ‘Functional’ Addictions: Sugar, Food, Alcohol, Cocaine, UK
Building Resilience to ‘bad habits’ by re-hijacking your brain and body.
For professionals who are looking for discrete 1:1 support to kick-start a new life.
Sticky Habits are a modern day epidemic - and we’re here for those who consider themselves a ‘functional’ addict, simply wishing to have more control.
Traditionally, addictions have been considered psychological conditions, but as many people with more functional ‘habits’ they’re struggling to gain control over will know - this isn’t always the case. Whilst poor mental health, stress, trauma or neurodiversity may have made you more susceptible to a ‘repeat pattern’, the truth is we find it hard to stop because our brains are hardwired to seek pleasure. As long as the perception of pleasure is there - you’ll have a hard time making change. We’re here to change that with our Body + Mind approach.
Imagine if you could take it or leave it when your drug or food of choice is available?
You landed here today for a reason. Plant that first seed of change before it gets harder.
Our Approach.
We’re not psychologists. Nor are we even asking you to quit. We believe your brain has been hijacked, and we want to help you hijack it back. By re-balancing body and brain physiologically, we help you start a new life of resilience, resistance and wellbeing. Get your pleasure from the little things again - just like you used to, without your ‘drug’.

Frequently Asked Questions.

Some substances and foods are highly addictive in their nature - to our brain, our nervous system and other body systems. This is a physiological, ‘body’ response, so it makes sense to do work to help the body recover and become less prone to ‘wanting more’. As well as that, as anyone with bad habits will know, focussing on health and feeling good is key

Deep inside, you know this is hard. You’re not an ‘addict’, you just need to ‘apply yourself’. We’re here to help you exactly with that, with our know-how on behavioural-change support and body-system balance
