See what some of Jennifer's clients have to say:

 

"I would never have thought I could make changes that would be so profound in all areas of my life.   There is a new lightness and brightness about me.   I have lost 20 lbs (!), and seen improvements in my skin, hair and nails.  I have avoided medications for high cholesterol and triglycerides - making real changes in my blood work. Overall, I have new found energy for myself and my family.  This is the only way to live - let Jen show you the way, too!!"  

- Jen Z.  


"How can food that tastes so good be so good for you??" - J.H.

"My family eats together when we eat your food.  For that alone, I am so grateful!  Thank you from the bottom of my heart."     - Tricia R.

  

"Thank you SO much for a wonderful cooking class. I can really say that it has changed the way I eat, cook and shop for groceries! I always thought I've been health-conscious when it came to food, but I never realized just how much more I could be doing.  Thanks again!"         - Celina Z.

  

"The experience I've had with Jen Kelly has truly changed my life. Not only has my body changed, but my entire way of thinking."        - Steph T.

"Jen provides an invaluable service; it is some of the best money I've ever spent on myself."
- Joanna H.


I am now making better choices and even enjoying foods I never knew existed!  My improved choices have brought many changes:  22-pound weight loss, down from size 24 to size 14, my LDL has dropped significantly as has my blood sugar levels.  Most importantly, my energy level has been great.  I was amazed by the Whole Foods tour and the "green wall," and I loved Jennifer's cooking classes.  This has been a great experience for me. ~Terry D.

 

I was NEVER health conscious and I NEVER believed in Holistic Medicine or Holistic anything else...I can't believe in such a short period of time I am changing my life for the better. Also, my mood has been uplifted and I try to share my new found knowledge with others. Thank you so much Jennifer for bringing me to the light. Better late than never! ~Phyllis S.

 

"This program has been wonderful for me.  My back pain has all but gone away in the past three weeks and I feel lighter and have more energy than I have for a long time!  I can't thank you enough for helping me realize that the foods we eat can have such a tremendous impact on our minds and bodies!" ~Joan J.

Greetings! 

 

outdoor headshotSummer provides for many a break in the routine:  a weekday concert in the park, a Saturday at the beach.  While summer is a time to relax and enjoy the outdoors, it also offers the perfect opportunity to take the step you have been meaning to take to improve how you feel on a daily basis.  

If you think you don't have the time, or you'll wait for fall, or January, or next Monday morning, just look outside at the shining sun and ask yourself, "why wait a minute longer???"  The truth is, if you don't take care of yourself, who will? If you aren't on your team, who is?

I have created an at-home "first step" transition program called Uncover Your Healthy Self, for those who think getting healthy is overwhelming, time consuming or expensive.  This 28-day program is done from the comfort of your home at a time that is convenient for you.  By adding in simple techniques one at a time, participants can literally turn their health around in one short month.

Think about it - a month is going to go by, regardless of what you do for yourself.  Wouldn't it be great if at the end, you felt more vibrant, more energy, more alive?  What a great way to enjoy summer - and the rest of your life.

Scroll down for details, plus info on Kings Park Day 2011, June's cooking class and a rocking mock tuna salad recipe.

Wishing you bright and sunny summer days ahead,
Jennifer

It's Easy Being Green:

Turn your health around in just 28 days  

(from the comfort of your home, at a time that's convenient for you!) 


Have you been wanting to get healthy, but don't know where to start?

 

 Think being healthy is too difficult, time consuming or expensive?

 .........................................................

 

If you want your life to have: 

 

increased energy

healthy weight

more delicious, healthy meals

Join us for a four-week transition program on how to begin to uncover the healthier you

.................................................  

This program is perfect for those looking for a starting point.  If you want to get healthier, but don't know where to start, read on...

 

Feeding Your Life has created a 28-day transition program designed to ease you into a healthier life by using an "add-in" strategy:  you don't have to stop doing all the things you think are "bad" - all you have to do is start adding in, and shift your focus onto what is working.   

 

That's all!

 

Program participants will receive one pre-recorded teleclass (mp3 format) per week, plus all informational documents and guidelines, for four weeks. At the end of each class, you will receive 2-3 recommendations for the week.  By following the simple guidelines suggested, in just 28 days, you will have transitioned from a state of toxicity, inflammation, and dis-ease in the body, to a place where getting healthier seems both simple and easy.   

 

   What's included:

  • the truth about what to eat, buy and prepare for a healthy lifestyle
  • four-week at-home program dedicated to transitioning your life to a state of increased energy, health and happiness
  • four one-hour weekly telephone classes, plus mp3 recording 
  • nutrition education focusing on inflammation and natural detoxification
  • guidelines for eating to detoxify and rebuild stressed organs using only real foods
  • simple, healthy, delicious recipes for you and your family
  • unlimited email support from a certified holistic nutritionist for duration of your program
  • information packet, shopping list, recipes and menu ideas for transitioning to a healthier way of living  
  • a perfect way to take that first step toward feeling great ALL THE TIME! 

Accept the challenge: 

You can turn your health around  

in just 28 days.
