Supporting Balance: holistic health coaching

Supporting Balance: holistic health coaching Research, read, learn and ask questions – don’t take anyone’s word for it… and book with us if you want personalised support.

We are here to help people to learn, empower, heal and thrive via expanding understanding about minerals, whole foods and stress, so each individual can find balance and flow in their body. I am here to share my knowledge and experience around healthy eating, whole foods (often via a Thermomix), understanding how minerals and vitamins run our body and how each individual can be empowered to take control of their health. I share information about how what you eat, impacts on your body, mind and spirit – making the science less daunting, bringing it to everyone and having some fun along the way too. I love helping others, I have done it for a long time before finding myself in this field – now I get to bring my many years of science knowledge together with my training and education, business and family-related skills, into a place for helping many at once, not just a few. I love seeing the ripple effect of my education and support on others – I have seen lives transform after clients have their minerals tested and then realise that they aren’t “broken” and that they have hope for a brighter, happier, HEALTHIER future, that nobody else has been able to help them find. Now I am seeing testimonials come through with people functioning better than ever before, to dropping symptoms they have had for years – all because they have learned about their own body and biology!

Most people are trying to fix symptoms that are actually safety signals.

Anxiety, fatigue, and histamine chaos often show up when the body feels under-resourced and unsafe.

When minerals are depleted and the nervous system is overloaded, the body stays on high alert — even when life looks “fine” on the outside and we may be told ‘it’s all normal!’.

That’s when you see:
• anxiety that won’t settle
• exhaustion that sleep doesn’t fix
• histamine reactions that feel unpredictable

Medication can be supportive for some people — but it doesn’t rebuild the foundations the body needs to feel safe again.

Safety + minerals + nervous system support change the biology underneath the symptoms.

And when the biology shifts, the symptoms often soften.

1.⁠ ⁠Stress burns through minerals. A lot. The effects accumulate over time to create imbalances and more symptoms.
2.⁠ ⁠Lack of minerals recycling in my body due to deficiencies leads to low energy, gut issues, hormone imbalances (& more)
3.⁠ ⁠‘In range’ doesn’t mean optimal.
4.⁠ ⁠Lab reference ranges change over time to cover a wider range (to fit more of us in!) - but our needs for that nutrient haven’t changed.
5.⁠ ⁠We accrue iron in our organs, muscles and tissues even if our blood may seem ‘low’. That buildup leads to symptoms.

Understanding minerals, stress, and physiology changed everything for me.

If you’d like to understand this deeper, especially how low iron connects to mineral balance and fatigue, I’ve recorded a free replay explaining it all.

When iron has been low for too long, your body doesn’t just feel tired — it adapts.

Common behaviors I see in long-term low iron:
• constantly feeling cold
• needing more sleep but never feeling rested
• brain fog or slow thinking
• avoiding movement because it feels exhausting
• anxiety or feeling easily overwhelmed
• low motivation or emotional flatness
• planning life around energy crashes

These aren’t personality traits.

They’re survival patterns from a body running low on oxygen and missing the minerals that help iron actually work.

✨That’s exactly why I created The 30 Day Low Iron Reset — to help you rebuild iron function properly, support copper, minerals, and the nervous system, and stop living around symptoms.

Iron deficiency isn’t just “low energy.”

It can show up as feeling cold, anxious, foggy, and unlike yourself — long before labs raise alarms.

If this list feels familiar, your body may be struggling to use iron properly, not just get enough of it.

This journey changed everything for me.

There was a time when I felt exhausted, confused, and completely disconnected from my body — while trying to support my daughter through her own health challenges.

I know how isolating it can feel when you don’t have answers, and when you’re told everything is “normal” even though you don’t feel well.

If any part of this resonates with you, please know you’re not alone.

My hope is to build a space where more women, men, teenagers and children to feel understood, supported, and empowered to finally make sense of what their body has been trying to say all along. 💛

I'm Kristan Kershaw, and I’m a health coach who helps people get out of survival mode by addressing the foundations of health — nutrient balance, mineral status, and nervous system regulation.
I take a root-cause, whole-body approach, because symptoms don’t happen in isolation. When we support the body properly and make small, realistic changes, it has an incredible capacity to rebalance itself.

Here at Supporting Balance, we specialise in helping families and individuals understand how to get the right balance of minerals and nutrients for THEIR bodies.

I don’t believe in extremes or quick fixes. My work is about meeting the body where it’s at, restoring trust, and building health in a way that’s sustainable for real life.

I use my extensive health coaching training and my background in science to help people from all over the world with my virtual consults and test analysis.

The clients that I work with come to me with a range of symptoms, and we identify and address the ROOT CAUSE.
- low iron
- fatigue, exhaustion & energy levels
- perimenopause/menopause symptoms
- thyroid problems
- asthma
- eczema
- food intolerances
- depression & anxiety
- IBS
- autoimmune conditions
(to name a few!)

It all started with my youngest child being hyper-sensitive soon after her birth. She was reacting to everything I ate, leading me to ask 'why'. After many doctors' appointments, I had no clear answers, and I didn't know how to help her.

I kept asking 'why' and eventually discovered the importance of magnesium. I then went on to discover the importance of other minerals too, and implementing what I've learned has improved our entire family's health.

My youngest is now a tween and can eat pretty much EVERYTHING. She has great digestion, sleeps well and doesn't react to foods.

When someone is constantly freezing, it’s rarely about the weather.

If you’re taking vitamin C, iron supplements, vitamin D, drinking herbal teas, layering clothes…
and still feel cold from the inside, it’s a sign your body isn’t delivering oxygen properly.

Low iron doesn’t just affect energy — it affects circulation, temperature regulation, and how safe your nervous system feels.

Your body prioritises the brain and heart first.

Cold hands, feet, and that deep internal chill are often the cost.

This is exactly what we work through in The 30 Day Low Iron Reset — restoring iron use, not just intake, by supporting copper, minerals, and the nervous system together.

Most people are taught to treat low iron like a numbers problem.

But iron status is influenced by stress, mineral balance, inflammation, and how regulated your nervous system is — not just how much iron you take.

That’s why symptoms can linger (or return) even when labs start to “improve.”

If you’re sick and tired of feeling sick and tired, and wondering why fatigue keeps coming back even when you’re doing everything right, this is exactly what I’ll be explaining in my free webinar replay.

You’ll learn why iron isn’t the root cause — and what your body actually needs to restore energy.

What is an adrenal cocktail?

It's not something you'd find in a cocktail bar; it's actually a healthy electrolyte drink.

In our health consults, we help people to understand what minerals and nutrients do in the body, why they're important, and how to get the right balance of minerals and nutrients for optimal health.

One of the first things we ask our clients to do is start regular adrenal cocktails.

But why? 👀

Adrenals are little glands on top of our kidneys, and these little things run so many things in our body! The adrenal glands are heavily involved in how we respond to stress, as well as how electrolytes flow into and around the kidneys and into the blood. They help regulate many processes in our bodies. If you've ever had an adrenaline rush (yes, it's all of us) or dealt with stress (yep, also all of us), that is when your adrenal glands are working hard for you.

The more stress you have, the more out of whack our adrenal glands become.

If you've ever heard anyone say, 'I've got adrenal fatigue' it's because those little glands can get really overworked. That's when exhaustion, physical breakdowns, mental health challenges (and so many other things) start to show up.

You don't have a lot left to give and it's often because your adrenals are really not handling things very well.

The adrenal cocktail is a healthy way to support those adrenal glands. It can help you have more energy throughout your day.

Start off with half the recipe pictured.

⛰️ Salt
For the salt, use something like Celtic salt, Himalayan salt or even the Copago salt we sell in our online shop. DO NOT USE TABLE SALT. Avoid processed salt.

It's a bit of an interesting combination, right? You might be thinking, hmm, I'm not entirely sure about how that will taste... it's like tangy, salty orange juice. It's a little strange at first, but after a while, you get used to it.

If it's really revolting to you, don't push through it; try another recipe. Let us know, and we can share some alternative recipes with you. If it's just a bit weird, keep going for a few days, and see how you go. You'll probably find the taste isn't so bad after two or three weeks. If you stop, notice how you're feeling - you'll probably notice it! Maybe you don't sleep as well, maybe you experience an afternoon lull. Pay attention.

For more explanation, watch this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCdPS8UjI9A

In summary, start with half the recipe, and have one every day. Then work your way up slowly to the full recipe, without rushing. If you can, try not to have it with meals, but if that's the only time you can have an adrenal cocktail, it's better than not having one at all. Then you can work up to two per day and see how you go.

Low ferritin isn’t always dangerous.
It’s usually a sign your minerals are out of balance.

Magnesium, retinol + copper restored = energy, hair, mood, life back.

If you’re sick and tired of feeling sick and tired, even when you’re eating well, supplementing, and trying to rest — this is exactly what I’ll be explaining in my free live webinar.

You’ll learn why fatigue keeps coming back, why iron isn’t the root cause, and what your body is actually asking for.

Think these symptoms mean “low iron”?

Not always. Typically, it’s actually mineral imbalances at play - magnesium, copper, potassium, sodium - all key to how your body makes and uses energy.

Before chasing iron supplements, it’s worth checking the bigger picture.

So many women are told their fatigue is “just low iron”…
but never learn why their body became depleted in the first place, or why supplements alone don’t always fix it.

This is exactly what I’ll be explaining in my free webinar.
