AN INTRODUCTION TO RELIEF BY DESIGN
Why “Bad” Habits Make Perfect Sense
Get a glimpse of the Relief By Design course with free access to the introduction and first module on why “bad” habits make a whole lot of sense!
Your instincts are working just fine. The question is how to work with them, instead of against them.
AS SEEN ON
THERE'S NOTHING "WRONG" HERE.
If you’re effective and creative in many areas of life, but taking care of your health leaves you frustrated and confused, you're not alone.
Most mainstream wellness plans offer generic prescriptions to "get healthy" without accounting for the reality of our lives, the things we care about, or the incredible stress we face from health conditions, demanding jobs, family responsibilities, financial concerns, global instability... and the list goes on.
They offer boring, unsustainable rules to intelligent people with urgent priorities and a gnawing desire for some kind of relief. No wonder those plans backfire—leaving us with an aftertaste of shame and guilt.
IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE LIKE THAT.
What if there was an alternative way to reinforce your health and relationship with your body that honors and responds to your real-life demands?
There is a a judgment-free, shame-free way to meet your needs and preferences as they evolve over time—and to quiet the voice in your head telling you it’s all your fault and you just need more discipline.
The problem is not you or your willpower; it’s the arbitrary, unsustainable methods we’ve all been fed about how to deprive and manipulate our bodies. This course flips the script on how we approach wellness.

MODULE 1
Why “Bad” Habits Make Perfect Sense
Learn why “bad” habits are actually a signal that your instincts are working just fine. There is nothing wrong with you.
Sarah Hays Coomer
Like you, I am a lot of things.
I’m a Mayo Clinic-and National Board-certified health coach, columnist for Forbes Health, National Strength and Conditioning Association certified personal trainer, freelance journalist, speaker, and author of three books.
I’m a mom to one kid and two dogs and a champion of every human being's right to be in their body unapologetically and without fear of discrimination.
I’m also a person who struggled for over a decade with depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and chronic pain. I know how it feels to be at war with your body and food, and I know how to find the way out.
I have spent the past 20 years—in private and group coaching, books and articles, university, non-profit, and corporate workshops—helping people put down the weapons of war against their own bodies and build an entirely different approach to health and healing.
The solution is not control and manipulation. It is kindness and generosity—rooted in evidence-based research, creativity, and exploration.
If you want a prescriptive diet plan, there are plenty on the market. Relief By Design is something different. It’s for free-spirits, creatives, professionals, and caretakers who are ready to step out of diet jail and into the light.
