Jena Wellness, USA

After a few months I have lost weight, improved digestion, expanded my knowledge of foods, gained more focus and energy toward personal growth, became more physically active, and experienced more energy in general. - Rob Garcia

With proper care and love, your body can heal itself of almost anything. The food we eat goes into our stomach and as it gets digested, it gets absorbed into our blood. Our blood is what creates our cells, our tissues, our organs, and even our emotional states. When we eat well, we strengthen ourselves. When we eat food without any nutritional value, we weaken ourselves.

Additionally, our careers, our relationships, our lifestyles, and more importantly, how we feel about these, play a fascinating role on our health.

What characterizes our work

		We look at the full picture of health, taking into respect the relationship between food and lifestyle choices. As depicted in the diagram, below we take into respect the inextricably links between the food we eat and what we call “primary food” – career, exercise, relationship and spirituality. For example it can be difficult to find the energy to exercise when your nutrition is lacking, and it can be difficult to eat well when you struggle to take a break from work for lunch. We support you to make gradual changes in your food and your lifestyle, establishing sustainable ways of reaching your health goals.		Used with permission from Integrative Nutrition.
		We highlight how food can be used as in a healing, therapeutic way, educating you to know what foods can help your body in which ways. For example certain foods are good for the lungs, others for the liver, others for sleep and others still for energy.
		We don’t like the term “diet,” nor do we talk about food in terms of calories, ounces or grams, measurements that are difficult or impossible to live by. Instead, we help you gain a clear, intuitive sense of the quantities and portions that suit your needs.
		We teach you to be more in tune with your own body’s messages and innate intelligence, and consequently to be empowered as your own nutritional expert.
		We offer yoga and bodywork as optional components to our nutrition programs.
		We walk you through manageable action-oriented steps to create enjoyable, convenient and sustainable ways of looking after yourself that suit your unique situation.
