Program Types
Foundation Health
As part of the foundational program, we set goals, determine what works best for you personally and then develop a practical customized plan that fits into your lifestyle.
Family Health
This program covers the basics while putting more focus on healthy family meals, recipes, menu planning, healthy snacks at home and on the go, while addressing picky eaters and various health needs within the family unit.
Pregnancy
The program focuses on the crucial role nutrition plays during fetal development. What YOU eat while you are pregnant determines how your baby will grow and develop and how quickly your body “bounces back” after pregnancy. If a woman hasn’t already, this is the best time for her to begin making healthier lifestyle choices that will not only affect her health, but most importantly the health of her baby.
Disease Prevention & Healing
Nutrition and lifestyle are the two largest determining factors in preventing illness, disease and premature death. This program focuses on overall disease prevention and/or healing from a specific disease.
Senior Health
This program focuses on improving the health of our aging parents when they have:
- little to no desire to cook
- decreased appetite
- increased desire for sugary junk foods
- little to no activity
- little interaction with others

As you start to feel better, the new healthy habits will begin to crowd out the less healthful ones. You will naturally begin to crave healthier foods and activities that make you feel good. As challenges and stumbling blocks appear, we will together find solutions. You will re-prioritize your life and start to notice your life improving in all areas.
Share Wellness groups are perfect for women and moms looking to improve their health and the health of their families, but find it hard to go it alone. Having the support of your friends naturally creates more accountability, keeps you motivated and helps you reach your goals.
Different topics are covered at each meeting, and participants share their successes and challenges in an interactive discussion group format. A typical group has six to 12 members and meets during the day twice a month for six months. These sessions give women the opportunity to share and recognize specific habits detrimental to their health, decide which habits they want to change, learn positive alternative behaviors, and benefit from the support of their friends. Everyone is asked to sign a confidentiality agreement at the start of the group session term.
Please contact me if you are interested in forming a Share Wellness group. It’s a great way to spend time with your friends and get healthier together.
