I struggled with a lot of pain before finding the right path in my health and wellness journey.

I spent years obsessing over my eating habits, sure that the secret to heal my body and mind was hidden in a meal plan. Everyone around me seemed to have mastered the arts of eating perfectly, to detoxify effectively, to feel great and manage inflammation JUST-WITH-FOOD.

My culinary experience, my attention to details and my perfectionism were all skills in my toolkit ready to help me succeed. I was cooking all my meals from scratch, practicing conscious grocery shopping and preparing nourishing recipes, but apparently it wasn’t enough and my symptoms were worsening.

I was really committed to myself but at the same time I was feeling lost and frustrated by not knowing which direction to take.

THEN SOMETHING HAPPENED!

In a super cold winter day, while I was walking in Central Park, I decided to sit on a sun-warmed bench. And there, I relaxed. I closed my eyes and I started breathing intentionally, focusing on the feeling of the cold air running in my nostrils. My shoulders dropped. My arms felt heavy before feeling light, before disappearing while still attached to my body.

I stayed still.

When the cold became unbearable on my toes I opened my eyes and I found myself wondering: WHAT IF IT’S NOT THE FOOD?

AND IT WAS NOT THE FOOD. That very cold morning in Central Park, a door opened and unlocked a connection with myself that allowed me to start considering my wellbeing from a more holistic perspective.

Since that day I started incorporating meditation practices to welcome the peace of the mind that ultimately, had the power to heal my body.

Through my work I share the ripple effect of my experience, helping people balance all the aspects of their lives through an holistic approach to health and wellbeing.
