Philosophy

Rather than dieting, it is important to consider our relationship with food.

Practicing mindful and intuitive eating helps us realize all the ways food nourishes our bodies.

Carolyn's individualized approach helps clients make meaningful lifestyle changes on their journey toward optimal wellbeing.

Medical nutrition therapy is provided with an empathetic and encouraging spirit.

Wherever you are in your journey, I'll meet you there.

Nothing better than fresh flowers + open windows, spring has sprung! How are you celebrating?
In a 2008 study by UNC, three out of four American women reported disordered eating behaviors or symptoms consistent with diagnosable eating disorders. In honor of National Eating Disorder Awareness week, it is important to remember that eating disorders do not discriminate against shape, size, age, race, gender, etc. If you or someone you know is struggling, don’t hesitate to reach out for support. It is possible to heal your relationship with food and body image. @neda #NEDAwareness
Not just a latte, but one sweet reminder of the way life truly should be spent. . This afternoon, amidst running from one place to the next, I stopped by @gorgeousgelato. As I placed my order “to-go”, I thought twice. As the owner, from Milan himself, prepared the espresso I shared that I would like to sit and enjoy for 10 short minutes before running to the next meeting. His eyes lit up as he shared that he yearned for more people to do the same. “When we first opened, I didn’t know what to-go cups were. Paper cups not only ruin the flavor but the entire experience... You never see an animal drink or eat while walking” he said. . Why is it that we can’t take the time to be with ourselves amongst the hustle and bustle? Wishing you the opportunity to stop and savor, connecting not only with the world but the body and mind in which you reside. Life is not to be spent being solely productive. . That being said, I will be unplugged until Tuesday. Be well + enjoy your weekend!
Setting the table for my favorite holiday, which is always kicked off with Friendsgiving. Feeling especially grateful for the beauty of connection. For what will you be giving thanks this season? Which of these words resonates with you? Wishing all a joyful, unplugged gathering in which food brings only peace and pleasure, not stress.
