I can relate with you…

In college, I became addicted to caffeine. Soon, I began suffering from anxiety, chronic fatigue, and dragged myself to my morning classes. I felt like I was repeating the same cycle over and over. I saw my health going downhill once I was diagnosed with seasonal allergies.

Finally, I decided that I would reach out to get support and also educate and experiment with new life practices and foods to find out what really works best for me! I sought out specific resources, including working with amazing mentors and participating in programs that supported my whole being. My programs offered me the individualized attention I needed to learn to honor my intuition and my leadership in reaching my life goals. My life took a transformational turn.  I not only eliminated seasonal allergies and caffeine from my system, but I experience a steady level of energy and sound sleep. Additionally, I have cleared away issues that I never imagined, such as PMS cramps and mood swings. I was so inspired by what I had accomplished that I decided to dedicate my life to helping others discover what I learned.

I enrolled in an internationally recognized training program at The Institute for Integrative Nutrition to become certified in holistic health and lifestyle counseling. And now here you are, reading about me and my work as the founder of Sustainable Wellness.  Amazing what can happen in life, once you put your mind and commit to it!

As a certified Health Counselor and lifestyle coach, I offer individualized support to individuals, organizations, and corporations in integrating appropriate food choices with lifestyle modifications to achieve health and life goals for the long haul! My professional training is from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition in Manhattan. I am also certified by the American Association of Drugless Practitioners and by the Teachers College at Columbia University to teach individuals about health, nutrition, and true wellness. My counseling experience is fortified by a B.A. in Psychology and Women’s Studies from Georgia State University.

 I believe that an adequate combination of support, tools, and resources integrated in a gentle step by step process, revives my inner expert for optimum well-being. I engage this innate intelligence to facilitate balance and vitality, participating in a journey of lasting wellness for my mind, body, spirit, and soul while I evolve, transform, and blossom in Existence.

 

My Guiding Principle: 

I am dedicated and determined to nourish my mind, body, soul, and spirit with awareness and informed knowledge. Empowerment, education, and transformation take precedent in my daily life, and it is such a precedence that assists me in serving my community and fellow peers. I believe in sharing the best of myself and the tools I have available to me -resources and support, love and warmth- with the world. I recognize that such an endeavor is a process and a practice in which I participate in as I walk along my journey in this lifetime. I am ultimately the one accountable to my Light and to my connection with you and the Universe.

Love, Light, & Liberation!
