Take My Course

You’re so not alone. Our minds are intrinsically linked to our bodies, and yet we live in a culture that tells us they’re completely separate. We are shown to white knuckle our way through diets and put off living our lives, all the while fearing the signals our bodies send us in increasing urgency.

Where does this leave us? Stressed out, on a way restrictive diet and with goals that feel completely unattainable and far away. But also? We’re left with bodies that are sending us so many signals, we don’t even know where to begin or how to turn the dial to hear them because we’re not learning how to listen to them. In fact, most of our diets teach us to not trust those signals.

Do you wish you felt more at ease with eating? Have you tried a bunch of different dietary approaches and still feel like each plate is a landmine full of confusion, restriction and no fun?

Well, listen. Let’s get your needs met, ok? You were born with the right to feel content, at ease and comfortable while building new habits and shedding old ones. You have the right to not only set goals for yourself, but to learn how to be present and non judgemental while working towards those goals. Yep–you can have it all, and you can enjoy it all, too.

My victory comes when you find yourself relaxed around food, and when you realize your autonomy when it comes to what works best for you in any given situation.

“I really learned from Lucia a healthy dose of skepticism around traditional standard nutrition and medical advice. I also learned that really so much of this work is learning and thinking and listening to my body. Over time and working with her I realized it is empowering to stand up for myself and listen to myself. I don’t have all the answers by any means but I know what I feel and experience is real and contains wisdom. I (unknowingly) spent most of my life actively trying not to think or self-reflect. I had no idea introspection was something people did or something viewed as positive. I have learned a ton about mental health and the mind from Lucia. She and her recommendations have pushed me to learn more about how the brain and mind work and the role they play shapes so much of our lives.”

“Lucia is really good at asking the right questions that I wouldn’t have thought. She is able to think outside the box and drill down into a set of actionable recommendations that don’t take months to see results. Lucia feels very approachable and available when I have further questions or need next steps in a healing process. She has been an integral part of my health care team and health journey, which is always evolving. It’s really nice to have someone to talk to when you are at your wit’s end with doctors who tell you everything is fine. She is good at listening and taking your needs or frustrations seriously.” Julia H-D 

“The biggest emotional impact for me is feeling in control over what I’m eating and this just gives me peace. Lucia knows her stuff, and is not peddling fads. I so appreciated that her knowledge is deep and rooted in science. That knowledge, coupled with Lucia’s gentle, encouraging nonjudgmental manner, is an awesome combination that makes it easy to take in information.”
