THE BODY WANTS TO HEAL.
Wellness is not a medical fix but a way of living a lifestyle sensitive and responsive to all dimensions of mind, body, and spirit.
Diet, rest, exercise, reducing stress, supplements, and herbal remedies can have a profound effect on your energy, mood, and well being. Through an individualized treatment plan, professional guidance and continued support, these powerful allies will be important guides on your healing journey. Finding true nourishment is a mind, body, and spiritual approach to well being.
“The missing ingredient in most dietary systems is a spiritual context, a way to see the sacredness and interconnectedness of all things. We are more than just a body, a tongue, and an assortment of nutritional requirements. We are a soul clothed in the elements of the earth, journeying in a realm where matter and spirit unite in human form. The body serves as a sacred vessel fashioned through millions of years of evolution to carry the spark of life.... Food is not merely something we eat. It is a ceaseless reminder that we are mortal, earthbound, hungry, and in need. WE are bound by a biological imperative that forever keeps us returning to the soil, plants, animals, and running water for replenishment. Eating is life. Each time we eat, the soul is supported to continue on its journey on Earth saying ‘I choose life.’”
