Hi! I’m Michele, a registered Bio-Energetic Intolerance Elimination (BIE) Practitioner, Nutritionist and Wellness Coach. I’m passionate about holistic, well-balanced health for mind, body, and soul. I’m also passionate about making a difference in people’s lives, especially those who are experiencing the discomfort and burden of ill health.
I came to this practice by way of my own health struggles. During a time when I was very overwhelmed with work, the effects of two separate car accidents and other difficult events in my life, I found myself at a crisis point. I had ignored warning signs until they were impossible to ignore. I developed a whole host of allergies and sensitivities to foods so severe that I couldn’t even eat without experiencing terrible pain.
I was already aware of the link between mind, body, and spirit when it came to well-being as a result of ten years of an extensive yoga practice and training as a Structural Integration Practitioner (Rolfer), yet somehow I had lost my way, slowly over time. It took time as well as focus for me to reconnect with myself and reground in healthful practices. BIE was a powerful tool for this journey and I fell in love with it as a modality for healing. Through BIE treatments, I was able to not only address deeper physical issues but to also eat the foods I loved again and nourish my body back to health. Eating a balanced diet of nutritive foods is important but our bodies must recognize them to use them to their best advantage and that is why BIE is fundamental to my practice.
With my background in body-mind-centric practices, as well as comprehensive training and experience as a coach with a focus on supporting others in fulfilling on what matters to them, I believe I have a unique perspective to contribute to my BIE Practice and clients.
I work with individuals, families and pets (yes, BIE can benefit animals too!) who are looking to be empowered in their lives and to make sustainable steps to reach their optimal well-being.
I look forward to working with you to find the state of well-being where you feel your best too.
I acknowledge that I live and practice on the unceded (stolen) traditional & ancestral land of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm, Skwxwú7mesh, and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh people
