Do You Ignore Your Gut Instinct?
You can feel when something is off. Bloating that arrives out of nowhere. A brain that fogs over after meals. A constant need to know where the nearest bathroom is.
It is easy to rationalize it away. You tell yourself it is stress, getting older, or just part of your job. You tighten your willpower, clean up your diet for a few weeks, add another supplement, then watch the same symptoms drift back.
Your gut is not being dramatic. It is sending the same message in the only language it has.
The Slow Build Up
When Your Gut Speaks Up
By the time the message is loud enough to ignore, you are usually juggling work, family, and the fear that you will be told to either live with it or sign up for something you do not entirely trust.
The way through is not another heroic cleanse. It is a clear look at what is actually happening inside your gut and nervous system, with methods you can understand and results you can feel.

Unblock Your Mind

Once your system can respond, we look directly at the gut. Depending on your case, that can include GI-MAP stool testing, food immune testing, and targeted blood work.
We do not run every possible lab. We select the few that can actually change what we do. From there we build a plan to remove specific stressors, restore digestion, and support the microbiome in ways your body can tolerate right now.

Clients Say...

"I was carrying a lot of load before. Now, I approach [my situation] with a sense of "self," and not so many emotions.
There's not at all a feeling that’s it's all on me now. The weight is just not there."

Joshua Lane, M.D.
"There is yet another level of laboratory-guided nutrition and health that can be achieved.
Mark guided me through nutritional and natural methods to achieve my peak performance."

"I was skeptical and had already done a lot of work. But I have to say, if I eat crappy food now, it’s a choice vs feeling a pull to use food as a device.
And if my paperwork starts piling up, I just do it without much negative thought!"

There Is Another Way
How we work with meaning first, then methods.
Before we talk about tests or protocols, we clarify what is actually at stake for you.
Using Mind Shifting, a Socratic style of dialogue, we slow down the rush to “fix it” and ask better questions:
What problem are you really trying to solve.
What are you afraid will happen if nothing changes.
If your health were stable, what would you actually use it for.
This is not therapy and not mindset cheerleading. It is precise work on the rules your nervous system has been following, often without your consent. Many people who come through the No-Nonsense Shift work with me only at this level, because once the meaning layer changes, a lot of symptoms and decisions become simpler.
When we do use labs, they never sit in a vacuum.
We treat test results as constraints and clues, not as verdicts. As we wait for labs and when we review them, we keep asking:
What story are you telling yourself about these numbers.
Does that story increase fear and helplessness, or clarity and choice.
How do these findings change what actually matters in your day.
Mind Shifting shows up here again. We use it to dismantle hidden assumptions (“my body is broken,” “this is who I am now”) so the data stays in its proper place—as information you can use, not an identity you have to live under.
Insight without action just creates more pressure.
Once the emotional rules are updated and the labs (if any) are understood, we translate everything into small, real-world experiments: how you eat, breathe, rest, work, and relate. Each change has a reason you can explain in plain language.
We watch what your body and your life say back. If something doesn’t hold up in practice, we adjust it. The goal is not to win an argument about which theory is right; the goal is for your gut, energy, and mood to line up with the life you actually want.
