Fighting your disease through dietary and lifestyle changes.

Understanding what is wrong with you and what you can do about it.

If you landed on this page, chances are that either you, or a loved one, have been diagnosed with an autoimmune disease. 

  • Are you sick and tired of being sick and tired?

  • Are you ready to understand what is wrong with you and why it's happening?

  • Do you have an open mind and are you ready to learn?

  • Do you want to know how to turn off the genes that make you sick?

  • Are you ready to take action and do whatever you have to do to assist you body in fighting your disease?

  • Are you ready to improve the quality of your life?

DID YOU ANSWER YES TO ANY OF THESE QUESTIONS?

Then the online course, The Autoimmune Way, is exactly what you need.  Your disease is not necessarily your destiny.  It is time for you to take control of your health!

WHY THIS PROGRAM?

It is personal, I was there too.  My name is Monica Woolridge and I'm a Certified Integrative Nutrition Health Coach and the creator of The Autoimmune Way. 

  • I was diagnosed with a very rare autoimmune disease in 2017.

  • I was lucky to be diagnosed relatively quickly.  My doctor gave me a handful of medicine to treat the symptoms.  The medicine treated my symptoms beautifully, but the symptoms returned the moment I stopped taking the drugs.

  • I wasn't willing to continue taking medicine without finding the root cause of my condition.

  • I wasn't willing to continue declining social events because I was worried I would spend all evening in the restroom or go home early because I couldn't stand the pain.

  • I wasn't willing to accept a life where I didn't have the energy to play with my daughter or take the dog for a walk. 

  • I wasn't willing to be sick all the time.

  • I wasn't willing to give up.

  • I wasn't willing to lose hope.

  • I WANTED MY LIFE BACK.

SO, HOW DID I DO IT?

After being diagnosed, I started reading.  I spent every free minute I had, reading up on autoimmunity.  I was like a sponge, soaking up every piece of information I could get.  I was committed to finding the real cause and alternative methods of fighting my disease.  Little did I know how overwhelming the process would be. 

 

I didn't understand the medical terms.  I struggled to understand why I'm sick and why so many claim that there is no cure.  It felt like there was nothing I was allowed to eat and that I was surrounded by toxins. Toxins that were making me sick.  I couldn't figure our how to manage my stress and the mere thought of being sick and not knowing what to do, made me stress even more.   

 

Over time I slowly started figuring it out.  I learned about the impact the food we eat, the environment we live in and the thoughts we have, have on our overall health.  I learned that thousands of people have improved their lives tremendously through dietary and lifestyle changes.  I learned that my genes are not my destiny and that I am in control of my health.

 

So I applied what I learned to my life and I'm now happier and healthier than I've ever been.  Even though many claim that there is no cure, I like to believe that I've recovered. 

 

I cannot guarantee recovery, remission or your health, but I can promise you that you have the ability to improve the quality of your life.

 

NOW IT'S YOUR TURN!

YOU CAN DO THIS TOO

YOU ARE NOT ALONE

I created a 6-month online course, designed to gently guide you through the dietary and lifestyle changes you're required to make to assist your body in fighting your disease.

  • Naturally

    You will learn how to fight your disease naturally through dietary and lifestyle changes.  

  • Personal experience

    It took me months to figure out how to do this.  It was an overwhelming, confusing and time consuming process but I'm now happier and healthier than I've ever been and I want this for you too.

  • We did the hard work

    We studied the work of experts in the field of autoimmunity. We did years of reading, research, webinars, programs, seminars and combined everything we learned in an easy to follow course.

  • Latest research

    The course is based on my own personal journey, the work of experts in the field of autoimmunity (Amy Myers MD, Sarah Ballantyne Phd, Mark Hyman MD, Steven Gundry MD, Chris Kresser an many more), the latest research and stories of recovery throughout the world.

  • Easy to understand

    We use simple and easy to understand terms to explain complex medical terms.  No more frustration and confusion.

  • Gentle 

    The steps are gentle and easy to follow.  We phased in the steps over a period of 6 months, so you won't feel overwhelmed by the process.

  • Hope

    We want you to have hope.  Your disease is not necessarily your destiny.  You are in control of your health.  Thousands of people have had great success in improving the quality of their lives.

  • Conventional medicine

    Don't get me wrong.  There is without a doubt, a time and place for medicine and medical advice.  The course should not be used as a diagnosis or be seen as a substitute for medicine or medical advice.  The course is an additional tool to use in your healing journey.
