| Lifestyle and Nutrition Coaching
We offer a six-month holistic health program that will radically change your view on food and nutrition. The program is typically implemented across six months, because true change never happens quickly and involves a gradual transition from old habits to newer, healthier ways. The program will help balance all aspects of your life: career, relationships, exercise, spirituality, and food. Come explore if this program is right for you or someone in your life. The initial consultation will provide valuable information to help on your path to good health and better eating. |

Tired of taking ten different kinds of vitamins? How about just one that is custom made for your needs only? Wouldn't it be great to take a stress test to see how our adrenal glands perform in crisis? Or find out what foods we are allergic to? Or how strong our bones are? Or how well our digestive enzymes are working? Or whether we should eat more or less protein and carbohydrates based on insulin resistance?
Without the high cost of doctors visits you can now take home tests and send to a respective laboratory for analysis. A report will follow that describes where you are deficient and how you can make improvements. So simple, yet so effective.

Greetings!
I love my November newsletter because I get to talk about Thanksgiving! I think it is such a special holiday with valuable meanings behind it that I would be happy to talk about in every newsletter. Holidays are approaching and seasons are shifting as they continue to do.There's a lot of change going on between the leaves, the weather, and yes - the country! Some changes in life we have control over and some we simply do not. These are challenging times and it's important to not lose sight of things we are thankful for and appreciate. Much of life, if not all, boils down to how we perceive it. Gratitude will take you far and ease any obstacle. I'm grateful that you are caring enough about your health, (and me) to read my newsletter!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING to all!

The Power of Gratitude
Being thankful is one of the most powerful assets we have at our access at all times! It's all about a choice to have a positive, grateful outlook. There's a lot to be said about "the glass being 1/2 empty or 1/2 full"! Our thoughts do create our reality to a very large degree. From a young age I understood the concept of the mind/body connection. I still am in complete awe at the magnitude of it's power. There are many things that we can do for our health on a physical level such as exercising and what foods we choose to put into our bodies. But what thoughts we choose are profoundly connected to both good mental and physical health! Keeping in focus all the great gifts we have just from living in this country (the U.S.), is remarkable in itself. We should all regularly if not daily, make a list of all the things that are going well in our lives. If we do not write them on paper we should at least slow down and think the thoughts, or better yet speak them! Positive thoughts create positive manifestations. Most of us are well aware of this but in our busy lives we often forget to practice what we know will help us the most. As with anything we want in our life, we must take time for it. Practice turns into habit. What we nurture grows, what we neglect dies. So basic, yet many people struggle to take the time. I highly suggest taking the time for positive acknowledgements of your life's many "blessings", and in return, oh so many more will come! |

 ROOT VEGETABLES!
Seasonal eating is important for getting the most out of your food for your body's needs. Root vegetables are now in season. Because these amazing foods have been strongly rooted in the ground they have the same effect on us. They are grounding! Feeling a little light, spaced-out or scattered? Try incorporating some root vegetables into your diet. It's truly amazing how the earth naturally provides us for what we need given the season, climate, and time of year. Some examples of root vegetables are carrots, sweet potatoes, beets, parsnips, burdock, onions, garlic, and parsley root. |
