Body Trust. Body Connection. Bodywise.
Does deciding what to eat feel hard? Are you constantly thinking about food and what to eat next? You are not alone. There is an explanation. You are not 'broken' or to blame.
Overtime, diet culture, impossible body standards, and other people's nutrition advice has robbed us of our ability to trust and nourish our bodies. We blame ourselves when diets fail, but diets are to blame. We were never meant to follow someone else's nutrition advice. We need to create our own food 'rules'.
Together we will rediscover your body's unique wisdom and the foods it needs to thrive. Learn to eat from a place of self care and bring the joy back to eating!
The Approach
The Bodywise Nutrition Co. uses a combination of Intuitive Eating and Functional nutrition principles to support your goals and improve your relationship with food . We believe that all bodies are good bodies worthy of adequate nourishment and equitable care. Our three tiered approach allows you to overcome food struggles, reconnect with your body and define what 'health' means to you.
1.Explore your relationship with food.
- Why do I choose or avoid certain foods?
- What experiences have shaped my views on nutrition and wellness?
- How do my eating habits impact my feelings of self worth?
2. Create your own eating style.
- Learn what foods feel best in your body.
- Understand how much and how often you need to eat to eliminate food noise.
- Reincorporate foods you love without shame or guilt.
3. Optimize nutrition and health.
- Functional lab testing to identify root cause issues and develop tailored nutrition and lifestyle recommendations.
- Supplement suggestions to correct deficiencies and manage symptoms.
- Tips to enhance nutritional value of meals without compromising flavor and satiety.
