As a certified nutritionist, I love educating, consulting one-on-one, lecturing, and writing about the means to create healthy living. I believe that proper holistic nutrition of the body, mind, and soul are essential to create and maintain joy and health. Health is not the absence of disease. Rather it is about creating an active state of mind and body that allows us to effectively deal with and positively respond to our "dis-eases". I am trained and practice in Nutrition; Holistic Health; Coaching; Herbs; Nutrients; Whole Organic Foods; Supplements; Physical and Spiritual Exercise; Weight Balance; Healthy Eating and Healthy Living. Essentially I am a Life Coach. I provide health assessments and access to professional alternative, in-depth laboratory testings. I teach Natural Foods cooking classes, and practice what I preach.Additionally, I am trained and certified as a Reiki Master. As a Reiki Master Practitioner, I augment my intellectual client assessments with those realized through focus on the person's electromagnetic and vibrational energies. Consequently, I am increasingly capable of determining and addressing the status of my client's health issues by combining holistic nutritional approaches with this 2,000 year old Japanese healing modality.I am also an author,a creative writer, an avid lecturer, and an instructor of meditation and Yoga of Recovery. My newest nutrition book will be out in Winter, 2013.I have extensive experience as a college instructor of Philosophy and Humanities; and as an Archaeologist documenting Native American Rock Art (petroglyphs and pictographs). I love domestic and international travel, and in my 20s I hitch-hiked through East Africa and wound up briefly living with the BaMbuti Pygmies in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
