What if something as fundamental to your life and your health as nutrition "wisdom" changes frequently and even drastically? Modern societies have such conflicting tendencies to replace one "truth" with another repeatedly, and the field of health and wellness is no exception. When seeming authority figures tell you what to believe, what to eat and what not, they silently take away your power. To help you reclaim and sustain your personal power , we: offer you unconventional practical tools for finding your own individualized path toward a lifetime of wellbeing; draw from both ancient wisdom and modern science, sharing timeless principles that govern good nutrition; explain the ' why ' behind the 'what' and 'how'; put into practice the deep interconnection of body, mind, emotions, energies, and spirit, applied to your wellness goals. It is our intention to support you on your journey toward attaining and sustaining a positive momentum of wellbeing. Through informal and in-depth discussion and coaching, clear of dogma , we venture beyond conventional nutrition science, and offer holistic perspectives to illuminate some of your most pressing questions regarding food, nutrition, and how they affect your body, mind, emotions, and energies. Among these questions are: Whom do I trust with respect to what I should eat to be healthy? What are some good sources and practical skills? How come my grandparents ate not the way we are advised to, yet still lived "fine"? What has gone wrong since? Is there a problem with sugary foods? Is eating meat healthy or harmful for my body? I hear conflicting messages - that eating meat is bad for me, but that I "must" eat meat to get adequate protein. Where is the truth? I was led to believe that eating fats would make me fat. But I am heavier, in spite of making a change to low-fat foods. Am I doing something wrong? How do I find good quality foods in a store? My body is giving me signals, but how do I learn to interpret them easily? I have started, but there are roadblocks I am dealing with. How do I keep going effectively? How do I make good choices when I am at a party or any social setting? How can children be empowered to make sound nutrition choices by themselves? and many, many more... Included at the end of each question are action steps to help you better integrate the main ideas in your life. In the process, you will become equipped to joyfully and confidently step in as a role model for people around you. All this contributes to a lasting long-term value for you. It is our sincere wish that here you will find what you need most for your journey!
