Holistic health Services

Food and health the delicious way to bliss

" The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest his patients in the care of the human frame, in diet, and in the cause and prevention of disease." Thomas Edison

 

As a Holistic Chef I am concerned with the broad aspect of food, cooking, healing and nature. It is being a creative chef while considering nutrition, energy, the season, the place, the person, ecology, earth and presentation, using organic ingredients where possible, keeping meals balanced with nutrition, color, texture and flavor. I specialize in healthy cooking with many vegan and raw food options. Animal products can be included, with the utmost care and dedication to the source and prep of foods. Many fish options available.

Special needs, dietery restrictions, weight loss or gain, allergies and healing needs are all specifically tailored to each individual. Cooking with and for clients, along with nutritional tips, food anecdotes, and lifestyle recommendations are parts of my unique way to help clients understand that a healthy lifestyle is more than just feeling good - it is the road to blissful living.

I am a certified nutrition consultant, a graduate from the Natural Gourmet, Institute of Health and the Culinary Arts in NY, registered Yoga instructor at the highest level (RYT 500) and registered with the American Association of Drugless practitioners. It is my responsibility and privilege to partner with a client on their journey to wellness and show them what the advantages of a holistic and integrative diet and lifestyle are.

Rejuvenate your kitchen

Want a change but not sure where to start? Do you want to eat healthier, but don’t want to give up some of your favorite food? Let me help. We shall open your fridge and pantry, talk about food you like, allergies, health conditions, and see where you would like to be. I shall offer suggestions for healthy substitutes according to what you like, your body, your needs (energy, physical, gender etc) and help you rejuvenate your kitchen as a first step to rejuvenating yourself. I work with individuals as well as family plans. I am well aware that each person is different, that children need different diets, and we all have our own likes and dislikes. I shall be there to create a kitchen that is a delight as well as healthy. As part of the rejuvenation, I am happy to give advice on what to freeze, little tricks on how to use fresh food efficiently, and how to buy the right products for you.

Supermarket tours

You know the feeling. You are looking at the shelf of a supermarket; you know you want soy sauce, but which one to buy? Does more expensive mean better? And now you see that there is Tamari and Shoyu, are these soy sauces as well? Let me take you on an adventure. We shall explore the great possibilities that today’s markets offer us. We shall learn to read labels and know what they mean. We will discuss organic food and when to buy it, what is the difference between cage free and free range? Are these organic or not. We will also touch a bit on the quality of foods, such as which oil is better, should we buy coconut oil, and is it better to eat tofu or tempeh? This tour is one and a half hour long and may change your life.

$25 (3 people minimum)

Holistic Health and Nutrition Consultation

Bloated, hard time sleeping, weight, skin, hair loss, or any other issue, I am here to help. My goal is more of a holistic one. I look to help you get on the Holistic life path that will improve your whole life, including the specific issue. I use cutting edge knowledge. Every day I spend an average of three to four hours, researching new information.

First you will complete the Blissful living questionnaire, The Ayurvedic body type and when needed the Candida questionnaire. I go over them and then we discuss possible paths to improve your life. Possibilities could be supplements, exercise, and meditation, but mostly food and cooking. We shall discuss specific dietary needs, desires and/or restrictions. We discuss supplements, cooking tips, recipes and much more.

Together we work on all aspects of your life to bring you to a balanced and joyful life. I pick and choose from a broad plate of information. From Ayurveda, Macrobiotic and Raw Food toYoga and Zen.

Consultations are done in person or over the phone. You can be in NY or Colorado, I am here to help. First consultation is 2 hours min.
