What is food to you?

• Is food love?
• Is food community?
• Is food energy?
• Is food pleasure?
• Is food sustenance?
• Is food power?
• Is food happiness?
• Is food life?
• Is food nutrients?
• Is food compassion?
• Or is food junk, chemicals, toxins, pesticides, herbicides, and “fast and easy”?

I ask, because if I told you, “if you changed how you ate and it could cure your pain”, would you do it?

If you ate to live rather than lived to eat, what would it look like?

If you ate nutrient dense foods,  and food for sustenance, can it still bring  you pleasure?  You know that it could bring you health.

Does that resonate with you?

Your body needs nutrients for life.  Feeding your body chemicals can not sustain you, which is why we are seeing so much disease.

• 10% of the population currently has diabetes.
• 33% of our population is pre-diabetics and will have diabetes in 5 years.
• 39% of our population has or will get cancer
• 25 million Americans have autoimmune disease, mostly females.

If you ate more nutrient dense foods, and could avoid all of this, would you do it?

Does this resonate?

“Why do you do what you do when you know what you know?”*

Can you eat nutrient dense foods that still bring you pleasure?

What would that look like?

Could you show love in ways other than food?

Could you enjoy community from other perspectives?

What if clean food could still bring you pleasure?

If you re-framed food to use real ingredients with real nutrients and still had yummy things to eat, would that bring you pleasure?

Could that bring you the same happiness?

If food made you healthy could it bring you more happiness?

I am here to tell you, you can.  Don’t wait until you get sick to discover “real food”. Eliminate all of the ingredients that you can’t pronounce. Buy live food.  Cook. Sit around the table at home with your loved ones, Eat plants. Choose from all of the colors of the rainbow.  They each have some wonderful gift to give to you.  I will help you discover how to do this, how to cook clean delicious food.  I can teach you how to research to eat out and still eat clean.  I can teach you how to enjoy community whether you are eating or just socializing without food.

We have to discover what food means to you, and then we have to reframe food so that you fill the same emotions with healthy substitutions.  Food can make you well.  Food can keep you well, or food can make you sick as hell.

Avoid all of the chemicals; avoid all the fake ingredients and most of your health battles are over.  Your body will heal itself.

Good health doesn’t have to be difficult.  It isn’t about deprivation. It’s about the joy of finding the life that you have always wanted, but didn’t know how to get.

Good health is about re-framing what you have been eating and making different choices that have the benefit of feeding your body lovely nutrients.  They have the added benefit of bringing you vitality.  They will make you glow. They will highlight your beauty.

Come join me on an adventure to rethink how you live and what you eat.

You are indescribably delicious.  Live with intent.  Live life with pleasure and gusto. Be healthy.
