My Health Coaching Approaches

1

A unique approach to nutrition

My approach to nutrition is a fully embodied methodology that goes beyond "eating right". Using nutritional psychology and mind-body nutrition, I take into account your life experiences and who you are as an eater, creating a unique system that will nourish your body, mind, and spirit.

2

Metabolic "secret formula" for every body

Did you know that, biochemically, eating is an inherently pleasurable experience? The chemicals our bodies release when we are enjoying our meals (namely endorphins and cholecystokinin) create not only increased digestion and nutritional assimilation, but greater satiation. Therefore, the secret to a healthy metabolism is a happy relationship to food.

3

Turning our eating challenges into our superpowers

Turn your resistance into a superpower by turning on your curiosity. Whether you struggle with overeating, how to lose weight, binge eating, or any number of struggles with your diet or body, there is hope and lasting change to be had by listening to the messages these challenges present and using them as a doorway to our highest health goals.

4

Transform your relationship with food

How you approach food and eating it has a far greater impact on you and your body than you may think (or even dare to believe). With increasing evidence showing how stress, guilt, and shame affects our metabolism my approach will have you making peace with food and finding pleasure in nourishing yourself.

Hi, I'm Shelby...

So many people today struggle with their own self perceptions, especially when it comes to body image and weight, and I have noticed that these issues often stem from deeply rooted thoughts and behaviors.

My passion in life has been to help people feel good about themselves, through helping identify the triggers and the root of these challenges. As a Mind Body Coach, my program focuses on helping clients to feel nourished in all aspects of their life, to find self-love and to establish a strong and conscious mind-body connection.

As a personal trainer, I have helped people, through movement, feel a stronger connection to their physical body. I have been a cosmetologist for 27 years and have listened to clients talk about all manner of personal challenges, especially around body image. This is what inspired me to go to the Institute for the Psychology of Eating and become a Mind Body Coach.
