Do you choose happiness

August 16, 2021 By joanna

Do you choose your own happiness or do you wait for happiness to happen as a result of your situation? This is conditional happiness and it can you keep in a pattern of dishonoring your own needs, using food for comfort or just plain seeing the negativity in a situation and … [Read more...]

Joanna is a body-mind-spirit professional

I began working with Joanna a year or so ago after a stay in the hospital for kidney stones and an E Coli infection. I was concerned about what would best serve my nutritional needs and keep my kidneys healthy. In addition, my a 1 c was elevated indicating borderline diabetes. It is a condition that runs in the family so I wanted to be proactive. Simultaneously, the pandemic necessitated quarantine so our monthly sessions were an anchor to some sense of normalcy in an abnormal time.

I'm not someone who responds well to 'You have to..." Joanna's style is guidance and suggestion, without absolutes. As a result of our time together, my a1c lowered to within normal range and I lost 20 lbs.

Some of our sessions were spent exploring long-standing attitudes and behavioral patterns that didn't serve me and I was able to see my way clear of many of them.

Joanna is a body-mind-spirit professional whose services can be offered either in person or online. With her supportive coaching, you will experience positive life changes too.

I found peace with food

I really enjoyed being a part of the Body Balance class!

- I became aware of how much joy was lacking in my eating. Now I am able to change habits around my meals to enjoy food more!

- I found peace in deleting food tracking apps - calorie counting was not helping me. It was just making eating more tedious.

- I gained clarity in what was really important to me and what steps I need to take moving forward.

I would recommend the Be Whole program to anyone struggling with food issues and losing weight!

My clothes fit again!

"It has been less than a week [on the Detox Plan], but I’ve found so much comfort in the lessons about food you’ve taught me through the years and have been amazed at how quickly I’m dropping the weight!!

I’m not starving, I have energy, the highs and lows from sugar have stopped, I am no longer craving carbs and, most importantly, my clothes are starting to fit again!!" DH

New PR’s!

In 2012 I was new in the world of triathlons and had completed an Ironman. While it was a great experience, I had major cramping and had poor nutrition throughout the race. I also found myself cramping up in marathons and with a goal of a sub 3 marathon, I knew I couldn't achieved that if race day nutrition wasn't fixed.

I found Joanna through various friends that had used her and recommended her services. We had phone sessions because live quite a distance from her office, but it worked out great.

She made sure to individualize my nutrition plan to fit my exact needs. I completed another Ironman earlier this month and PR'd by over an hour and placed 3rd in my AG and 8th OA female not including pros. My marathon is at a 3:05 but hope to get sub 3 very soon and am confident that with my new race day nutrition, I will!

Awesome Advice

"Thank you for all your awesome advice!!!! ..[Race Day] Nutrition is tough because it can really derail you, but it is hard to practice.

I really appreciate your description of symptoms because it is easy to know that there is something wrong, but hard to know the cause and how to fix it.

I really appreciate your expertise here and can't wait to Saturday's race!" Marita M

huge impact

'Just want to thank you for introducing me a your 2 week detox diet.

It has made a huge impact on my life. ... This "diet" really worked because it was really easy.

I did find myself a few pounds down. ...because of the diet, my normal way of eating has permanently changed. ... I was introduced to a variety of foods that I normally never ate. .... Job well done Joanna.' - DG

Feeling a lot stronger

Thank you again SO much for all this awesome info. I am honestly feeling a lot stronger in my training lately and the heat isn't bothering me at all.

I am also cramping less in my runs lately, and really attribute a lot of this to our fixing my constant state of dehydration and I'm just more aware of my fueling during the day since our first session. Just feeling really grateful! - Sara C
