Nutrition Counseling
If you are looking for another new, miracle diet, this program is not for you. If, however, you are serious about making lifestyle choices that will help you improve your body shape and composition, improve your overall health, burn unwanted pounds, and experience improved every day performance, whether or not you are an athlete, we welcome you to Optimal Health Group in East Greenwich, Rhode Island.
For a combined 31 years, we have been experimenting with, learning about and applying sound nutritional principles in order to arrive at a system that works! Included as part of our 12 week Transform Your Body and Your Life Workshop, or if you’re interested in one-on-one or group settings, we guarantee results.
In order to attain optimal health, performance and body composition you’ll need specific strategies and exercises designed for your individual body type, size, age, shape and lifestyle. You’ll also need to continually adapt new strategies as your body changes. For as your body burns fat, gains muscle, a combination of both, or whatever your specific goal, you’ll have different requirements as you progress. We provide you those changes and with your compliance and motivation, guarantee success.
Our focus is on changing body composition (ie. fat loss, muscle gain). We are not diagnosticians and our advice is not meant to replace medical advice and care.
We will help you enhance your appearance, increase your endurance, improve your energy level, and become more physically efficient, capable, and confident.
It’s not that some people have the discipline and others do not. It’s that some people are ready to change and others are not.
Life Counseling
If you are tired of being defined a certain way, told you have a ‘disorder’ or put in the proverbial box of understanding and awareness, and if you are tired of the same course of ‘treatment’ that leads you down the same path of cyclical relief, numbness and depression, there is another avenue that bridges the gap in our understanding and control of our own consciousness.
An understanding of how you function as a system of energy, and applying that knowledge to develop a personal will which you command, is essential for healing, change and growth. For healing and change are one and the same thing. It is these two experiences which bring about growth. The courage to accept the responsibility for that power and the courage to embrace change is paramount if you really want to heal.
Decide that you want to actively participate in the creation of your experience, the quality of your health, and the direction of your life. Science and psychology have succeeded in developing a foundation of the understanding of behavior, based on research and medications. I believe this is where the cliché “think outside the box” originated. This scientific approach is often helpful at best and most often inadequate at providing practical guidelines for change, growth and real healing. People simply don’t fit in a box.
Discover a new lens through which you may explore your mind, your body and your spirit Achieve the balance you are seeking through individual, practical exercises that may help you renew your own enthusiasm for your life experience. We live during a time in which mental and emotional illness (depression, anxiety etc.) has reached epidemic proportions. You really are so much more powerful than you are realizing at this moment.
I would like to be of service to you as you attempt to turn a corner, make changes, face your fears, and decide you want to make the changes necessary for the creation of the life you truly want to live.
My pledge to you is:
- To be honest, compassionate and never judgmental
- I will always communicate through my heart and not my ego
- I will not attempt to define you or put you into the proverbial 'box' - we just don't fit.
- All session are treated as confidential
