From Becoming Raw to Nutritious You

From “Becoming Raw”* 

to “Becoming a Health Coach”

to "Nutritious You"

As many of my friends know, I have been experimenting with raw and vegan diets in the last several years. This is why I originally started writing this blog and called it Becoming Raw.  Over the past several years, I have followed different health gurus. This period of exploration culminated in my first cleanse which left me feeling lighter, more energetic and focused.  These experiences prompted more research on nutrition. Over the last four years, I helped people in my community with healthy supplements and adjusting their lifestyles. This experience inspired me to bring my knowledge to a more professional level. I am excited to share that I found a school that is the perfect match- The Institute for Integrative Nutrition, located in New York City.

The school preaches a holistic approach to one’s health and wellness based on bio-individuality. In addition to nutrition, it also addresses areas of relationships, spirituality, career, and physical activity together to help a person to achieve his/her goals holistically. You can learn about this approach here.

I am so looking forward to applying the knowledge I gain to help people achieve their goals in areas of health and wellness without restrictive yo-yo dieting. I will start seeing clients as a Health Coach in September of 2012 and will offer student rates until my graduation in 2013.

To learn more about the program I'll offer, please read on:
The process would start with a free consultation during which we will identify the areas of most concern and then proceed with creating a customized program to achieve your goals in a step-by-step fashion over six months. It is believed if you engage in activity for 6 months, it becomes your second nature. It may include tweaking your daily habits, easy-to-make nutritious meals cooking classes, sugar cravings deconstruction, helping out with comfort foods, a grocery tour, cleaning up pantry, introducing workouts for your mind and body, addressing your stress level, improving your sleep and many more options, depending on the need.

If there is anyone disappointed that Becoming Raw blog's name is gone, I would like to reassure you that I’ll keep posting easy and nutritious recipes and other informative articles on minimally processed food. So, please stick around!
