We live in a world that cultivate disconnection from out bodies. Our intelligent minds lead most of our decisions through out our daily life.

If we are felling tired, we go get another coffee,

If we are feeling sad, or stressed scroll on social media, get busy, or find something else to do. Anything than giving space or attention to what our  body is feeling or experiencing.

And from this place of disconnection we make major decisions in life

Embodiment   means     being, honest,   sincere,  truthful

about how we feel.

Eating and cooking as a self love practice

I invite you to join me to this NEW adventure!!!

About 4 years ago I graduated from IIN as Integrated Nutrition Health Coach, I have worked with a few clients but never developed my own program.

Last year in a conversation with my dear friend Krystal B I offered to create a meal plan for her.

And when I started creating that for her, I went straight in to the rabbit hole, I  realized that I could create a meal plan for her that may serve her for a few weeks and after that what??!!.

I went a little deeper and yes !! took me almost a year to decide what I really wanted this program to be. ( as usual thank you K for the inspiration 💕)

Sooo…. This program is about creating healthy new habits, it is about cleansing from the inside out, about healing our gut, through mindful eating and cooking, about recognizing that not only what with eat affects our body, as well what we watch on tv, what we scroll on our phones, the people that we spend time with, the way that we move our bodies, the way our closest look, and about recognizing that everything is easier in a loving and accepting community.

And that is exactly what this program is about!!!!

I hope this excites you as much a me 😜😜.

This program offers:

⭐️4 weeks of meal plans, with recipes and weekly shopping list.

⭐️6 weekly zoom meetings

⭐️private platform to exchange experiences
