Luke Sebastian Coltman
Naturopathic Nutritional Therapist
My fascination with nutrition and lifestyle medicine began shortly after an event that catalysed a complete rethink of both my physical and mental wellbeing. I had reached a point of zero resilience. I was unhealthy, overweight, perennially anxious, depressed, and perpetually on the verge of physical and mental collapse. I summoned what little energy I had and decided to take action. Perhaps grasping at straws somewhat, I spent a year researching and experimenting with various dietary models and exercise regimes - my own “study of one” if you like - in the hope that something might improve my wellbeing. And you know what…? Something did! Drastically! By the end of that year I found myself with boundless energy, fitter than ever, my brain ticking over nicely, and my often crippling anxiety and depression banished to the past.
As a composer and producer with a background in audio engineering, I have an innate inclination toward the harmonious and technical, and so was driven to unearth the mechanisms behind this remarkable turnaround so that I could understand it fully and help support others that may be struggling to navigate their way around their own physical and mental health obstacles. A career change beckoned, and so I enrolled at The College of Naturopathic Medicine, where I spent three joyous and fascinating years studying the holistic, evidence-based practice of Naturopathic Nutrition, and subsequently qualified as a licensed Nutritional Therapist.
And so here I am, still loving music, but now professionally refocussed on helping to support those that may have struggled to find answers to their health concerns elsewhere, would like to minimise their reliance on pharmaceutical drugs, or would just like to wake up each morning feeling great! With a little effort, expertise, support and encouragement I assure you it’s possible!
