Holistic Health
and
Sleep Coaching
Most people think poor sleep causes health problems, but it actually works both ways-unresolved health issues are often the root cause.
Holistic Health Coaching That Restores Your Sleep and Resolves Hidden Health Issues
The UNSTUCK METHOD focuses on health first: restoring balance in the body so deep, restorative sleep happens naturally. We uncover hidden health issues together to solve your health puzzle. A healthy foundation for sleep is built through tailored nutrition, stress reduction, lifestyle alignment, and sleep strategies. Relying on supplements and gadgets only goes so far in reversing insomnia, and ultimately serves as temporary relief. Constant tracking of sleep can even make insomnia worse.
By focusing on the root cause sleep restoration can happen quickly. This is a unique holistic approach based on years of experience with thousands of clients with holistic methods and personal experience with sleep issues. Evidence-based holistic healthcare is the core of the method and can provide support for all health issues.
Sleep Coaching That Goes Beyond Common Strategies
When you address the root cause of poor sleep-your overall health- your nights and your days, transform. You have more energy during the day and restful, restorative nights.
Every insomnia client is unique, and so are the focused recommendations for falling asleep, staying asleep, waking up too early, fatigue, quality of sleep, circadian rhythm imbalance, and other insomnia challenges.
Unstuck sleep methods go beyond conventional medicine, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), sleep hygiene, and mindfulness, although basic concepts are incorporated. Evidence-based holistic methods, along with pattern recognition through questionnaires, interview, and specialized lab testing, uncover and release emotional, mental, energetic, and physical stressors so they can be addressed.

Linda D.
"For nearly five years, I lived with broken sleep. It would take over one and a half hours to fall asleep, I'd wake up several times a night, and often lie awake for what felt like forever. It was exhausting and discouraging, and I started to believe that good sleep just wasn’t possible for me anymore. Sleeping pills left me lethargic the next day, so I decided on a holistic approach. I met Dr. Rabia Barkins and it's amazing, after two phone sessions I'm able to sleep well, consistently, and regained my energy! Amazingly, my good sleep even maintained during 2 months of major stress in my life.
The consultations addressed my specific needs. With a mix of gentle exercises, a few key natural supplements, and changes to my habits. Now, I fall asleep easily, and when I wake up during the night, I’m able to settle back into sleep instead of staring at the ceiling for hours. I recommend Dr. Barkins to anyone who has sleep issues."

"I highly recommend Rabia for those seeking holistic health solutions and expert sleep coaching. I have been working as a healthcare professional for many years, and I could not pinpoint the underlying causes on my own, but Rabia's methods have been instrumental in finding the origin of the problems. I already noticed improvement after the first session.
Body-mind exercises and lifestyle improvements that she has suggested have made a big difference to the recurrent headache related symptoms I have had. I also found that her incorporation of the Emotional Freedom Technique and her intuitive skills have been quite helpful to improve my health. The follow-up sessions have been helping to positively shift recurrent stress related patterns."
Jacklyn G.
"I did not have sleep or health problems when I consulted Rabia- it was an emotional blockage. I was stuck in life. She used her methods to find the underlying cause of the lack of balance in my life. Rabia also helped me change my life with Emotional Freedom Technique. Her intuitive health coaching helped me become aware of emotions that blocked me from taking care of my health. I also learned how and why I make decisions that are not always in my best interest.
I followed Rabia's recommendations which included nutrition, lifestyle changes, and emotional awareness clearings. My life changed immediately. I found a more suitable living space easily, some new gig jobs came my way, and I improved my health habits so that I can prevent future health problems. My work and life are more balanced and I'm much happier as a result."
Ann B.
"Unstuck methods have reversed my sleep problems. I had spent five years trying everything, and not having any results. Rabia's custom sleep coaching helped me sleep within weeks. Previously, I had sleepless nights, woke up often, and it took hours to fall back asleep. I also have moderate sleep apnea that wasn't completely fixed with a cPAP. After Rabia's input, sleep apnea is not keeping me from sleeping anymore. Rabia's methods made a significant improvement and so far, the results have lasted over the past two years."

"I’m so excited! Everybody who knows me notices a change. I’m so grateful for the help from Dr. Barkins that I can’t even believe it.
I read all the books and got all the vitamins for self-treatment. You can’t do it for yourself. You need someone to hold your hand. I couldn’t do it, I tried. After treatment with Dr. Barkins, my stomach isn’t gurgling anymore and I’m not constipated anymore. I am healthy, now. I’m doing this 100% for as long as it takes. I know this treatment is good for me.”
“Thank you Dr. Barkins for encouraging me to do specialized lab testing. Finally, I have a clear picture of my health issues for my digestion and with my hormones.
Thanks to you, I am no longer out there trying to find the correct diagnosis.”
About
Dr. Rabia Barkins
My interest in holistic medicine started when I was 22. I was working as an occupational therapist with special needs children. Some were Thalidomide injured children (a toxic drug that led to deformities and handicaps). I learned about the potential adverse effects of pharmaceuticals and I was drawn to learn about natural remedies, nutrition and natural healthcare. I realized that we can't prevent all health issues, but things like diet, exercise, stress release, and natural remedies can help prevent, improve, and reverse many health issues, along with diet and lifestyle medicine.
I went back to college for four years to be a Doctor of Chiropractic (emphasizing the nervous system and the innate intelligence of the body to heal), and two years for a Board Certification in Clinical Nutrition that included studies in lab testing, herbs, natural remedies, diet, and lifestyle.
I believe that this is a critical time in the history of the United States and the world to balance healthcare with conventional and holistic methods for the prevention of chronic disease. I teach free local classes to help others learn about self-care with holistic health.
I became a specialist in sleep after my own personal experience. I have helped myself, family, friends, and clients for over 35 years with health and sleep, especially when conventional methods did not work. My mission is to support others to be the best version of themselves and to restore health, happiness, and sleep.
When I'm not helping clients, I am hiking in the redwoods, playing with art, Qigong, writing, and reading.
Yours In Health,
Rabia
