What makes this program different from any other diet?
A diet typically:
- Is a dictated set of rules of dos and dont's
- It is generic, because it applies to everyone
- It is restrictive which makes it very hard to sustain
- it offers extreme solutions yet with short lived results
- It focuses on counting calories or points and is based on deprivation,
- It can be based on processed and artificial food, so it is not always healthy
- it is not a well rounded approach
- it does not address how your lifestyle, emotions, mood and stress can affect the way you eat.
- It does not take into consideration your preferences, likes, lifestyle, ancestry, food allergies
- It does not address the underlying causes of many symptoms or individual imbalances
During our program:
- Partnership: We guide you & coach you into appropriate action steps that will lead you towards your own goals of well being. Coaching will help you work through obstacles that usually limit your potential and success.
- Bio-individuality: We respect your individuality and apply a personalized approach even if one of the goals of weight loss appears to be the same for everyone.
- Intuition: We take the time to teach YOU how to listen to your own body and consider what is right for YOU!
- Holistic Approach: We have a holistic approach and work with you on career, relationships, spirituality along with nutriton. We believe that food that doesnt necessarily come in a plate is as important as the food on your plate and we help you reflect on, balance and improve all areas of your life.

How can I guarantee to get the most out of the program and reach my goals?
Obviously, much of your success depends on you. There is no quick fix. The best way to ensure results is to be honest about what is working and what is not, to follow the recommendations and invest some time and effort in working through the challenges that come with making changes.
Why is your "Full Body Makeover" program that long? Can I do one or two sessions and see if I like it?
Unfortunately we spend a whole lifetime eating the “wrong foods” and building “bad” habits and expecting in a couple of visits to change our life around, is not realistic! That is why our program is a gradual process. Time is required to try new things, integrate new habits, fully implement plans and realize goals. At each session, we'll review your actions of the previous week, successes and learning, work through challenges and obstacles, and partner on the action items you'll work on for the coming week. Relevant articles, information, tools, exercises and materials may be incorporated to support thinking and actions.
If you follow the recommendations and show up you will experience positive results. I invite you to be honest with me during our sessions and let me know if something isn’t working for you; I will work with you to re-evaluate our approach and customize the program to support your needs best. I am here to hold your hand, challenge you and encourage you, remind you that you can do this, and also help you feel accountable to encourage you while working through the challenges.
If you are not ready to make a 4- month commitment for the "Full Body Makeover" program, you can consider one of the shortest programs we offer.
What is the Message you want to get out?
As a society we are losing touch with ourselves and with nature. We get caught up in our fast-paced demanding lifestyles and we forget what we eat, why we eat and forgetting what our purpose in life is. We are most often than not, sick and tired, always desperately looking for the quick fix; it doesn’t have to be this way! Making an effort to eat healthy does not mean abandoning our lives. It is more a matter of finding our personal truth and understanding what we need to nourish our body and mind. By learning how to listen to our bodies, we can learn how to take care better care of ourselves every day, live with more awareness, more consciousness around our choices and defining what it means for us to be healthy and well.
