Balance. While it seems such an unassuming and simple word it is actually one of great power.

Equilibrium. Stability. Harmony. Symmetry. Parity.

Palgrave’s Tina Haller believes that balance in four key areas of one’s life – emotional, physical, mental and spiritual – is the solution to a vibrant, healthy, empowered life.

Formally a Statistician for 11 years with Bayer and Glaxo Smith Kline, Tina then freelanced as a statistical consultant for the next 15 years for small biotech companies, clinical research organizations, as well as other pharmaceutical companies.

“The demands of being an independent consultant began to take a toll on my health” Tina recalls. “I was chronically stressed and burned out and had several health concerns. Around that same time, my sister passed away suddenly due to cancer. That was my turning point! I knew I needed to start taking my health seriously.”

“I retired from my statistical career and transitioned into a personal trainer role – part-time in 2009 and moving to full-time in 2015 – that is when my journey to better health began” she explains.

 “I quickly realized that fitness alone was not going to be enough. I went back to school to get my holistic nutritionist certifications in 2016. I soon discovered that while fitness and nutrition were vital components to health there was still a piece of the puzzle missing.  I was eating healthy and exercising often but I still felt unhealthy.”

“That pivotal moment brought forth a profound realization: the mind possesses an extraordinary influence, shaping our behaviors through thoughts and beliefs. It became clear that my own mind, unwittingly, played a role in my illness. And that to truly heal, I needed to heal from the inside out, taking a holistic approach to my health.”

“My life changed so dramatically; I knew I had to share it with others” she says. “This is when I transitioned to helping my clients from a holistic approach rather than just nutrition or just fitness.”

For the past four years, Tina has successfully cultivated her skills as a Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP) practitioner and Certified Hypnotherapist. Additionally, as a holistic nutritionist and personal trainer, she combines her comprehensive knowledge of nourishment and physical fitness with her expertise in NLP and Hypnotherapy. Through this multifaceted approach, Tina guides her clients towards holistic well-being, empowering them to achieve their health and wellness goals, creating sustainable, lifelong results.

Drawing upon years of training, invaluable experience, and enlightening breakthrough moments, Tina has crafted two exceptionally insightful frameworks known as ‘Nourish to Thrive’ and ‘Reclaim Your Power’. ‘Nourish to Thrive’ offers a meticulously designed approach that promotes the holistic rebalancing of the body by starting from within. On the other hand, ‘Reclaim Your Power’ centers around cultivating a success-oriented mindset in both personal and professional life. Together, these frameworks equip individuals with practical tools and guidance to foster personal growth and empower them to thrive both physically and mentally.

Last year Tina self-published her first book Feed Your Soul, Creating A Health Mindset.

“The book focuses specifically on the mindset around nutrition and helps people to look at nutrition from a totally different perspective” says Tina.   You can purchase her new book on Amazon, Booklore in Orangeville, or Forster’s Book Garden in Bolton.
