Ouch, did I really say that? Here I am a Health & Wellness Coach, and I just said not to learn nutrition from someone like me. Ouch.

 Here is why I say this. When I work with someone that does not really understand nutrition, it takes a lot of teaching and coaching because so much of the information is a new territory of terms and biology. In addition, if a person does not have a basic understanding as to “why” then changes often don’t stick.

 A good coach will teach by providing nutritional knowledge, of course, along with structure and accountability. That said, the best part of a good coach is to guide one to know thyself and tap into their own intrinsic knowingness. This comes easier for a client who knows  the territory.

My suggestion is, if you can take the time and afford it, learn every thing you can about nutrition. Yes, I am encouraging you to take the Food Matters Nutrition Certification Course. Check it out HERE, and see if it is something that interests you. And, watch the video about to see if it resonates with you.

I encourage you to consider and take action - learn as much as you can bout nutrition.  

 If you do, it will be one of the best gifts you can give yourself, your family (even though family never seems to listen) and your community. I am still blown away by how much people don’t know. And, our lives depend on knowing and making the right choices for ourselves and each other – if we can.
