My Philosophy
My approach to nutrition is based on education and personalization. Provide people with science-based and solid information so they understand why we ask them to make the changes. Secondly, really understand the person’s lifestyle. Change is hard for everybody. Small steps lead to the greatest benefit because they can be maintained and built upon one at a time.
I believe yoga is an opportunity to establish a good relationship with ourselves both on and off the mat. It does not happen overnight and it takes practice. Practice to be with ourselves without judgment, without comparisons, but to be fully present. Learning this is the essence of Yoga. As easy as those words sounds, it can be challenging. Sometimes it can help to have a little assistance.
