Nutrition Consultations

Book a Nutrition/Wellness Consultation with Shawn Today!

Food is our fuel, our source of vitality, our nourishment and so is our sleep, breath and lifestyle habits. We all know the basics of what we should and should not do but sometimes we need a little guidance and inspiration is all that is needed to get us back on track or inspire us to get started on our personal healthier journeys. Sometimes it is just a matter of a few changes that can make all the difference.

Why Are Nutrition Appointments Helpful?

It used to be that eating right was simply a matter of common sense. Eating less animal fat, more fiber and more vegetables were ways to ensure a healthy diet. And they still are. But today we speak of omega-3 fatty acids, soluble and insoluble fiber, phytochemicals, low and high glycemic index carbohydrates, not to mention prebiotics and probiotics.

Sound complicated? It often is. That’s where Shawn comes in. She helps you translate science-based nutrition information into a realistic and manageable eating plan that’s sustainable. Shawn will help you navigate the grocery store, restaurant menus and the supplement aisle in health food stores.

Whether your goal is to lose excess weight, lower cholesterol or blood glucose, improve your energy level, ask about your supplements or simply stay healthy as you age, working one-on-one with Shawn will give you the tools and support you need to eat healthfully today – and for the long term.

One on One Nutrition Consultation or Family Consultations 🙂

Initial Consultations are 90 minutes in length and all follow-up appointments are 6o minutes in length.

Initial Appointment:

After filling out and submitting forms (Health History, Food Journals, WISE form and submitting test result of your choice).  I will review all of this information prior to appointment.  We will then discuss your health and wellness concerns, I will answer your questions and together we will plan the first steps in your healthy journey to allow you to reach your goals.

Follow-up Appointments:

These a wonderful appointments that can take place as often as you feel necessary to allow you to continue to make the healthiest choices for your overall health and wellness.  It is a wonderful way to stay motivated and to continue to discuss your  successes, challenges, and ask questions.

Improved Health is truly a journey note a destination.

Shawn will guide you through the what, where, how and when to eat including healthy recipes plus discuss your supplementation needs if necessary.

What a wonderful way to begin your “Healthy Journey” or to stay motivated on your “Healthy Journey”.

It is always so beneficial to be able to ask questions regarding your lifestyle, diet and and/or supplements.

You can personalize your appointment to suit your needs and wants.  It is an wonderful hour, well spent.

Testimonials

Dear Shawn  “I  wanted to tell you that our talks really do help to ground me – sometimes I start to wander down the crazy train weight loss path where I see others on these silly fad diets and I think maybe I should partake in them as well – then I have a conversation with you and realize – YES!! I am on the right path and this is the only way to heal myself and feel good.  The weight is just an annoying side effect to my years of bad habits and now that I have made the change to healthy lifestyle it will get tired of hanging around and leave soon enough.  The extra pounds are like that one person at the party that doesn’t know enough to go home.  I am excited for my future”.

Thank you for arranging the nutrition meeting today with Shawn.  I definitely learned a lot.  We will go the “smoothy route” as that seems like the most efficient way to get important nutrients in to our body. Julie called and was wondering how the telephone meeting went.  It was definitely informative.  Julie is going to come over for a visit on Sunday a.m. with her recipes for smoothies and also protein supplements.  That will be her birthday gift to your dad.  We will get our blender down and create space on the counter so that each morning we can put together a nutritious drink.  Jeremy has one every morning for breakfast.  Anyhow, I just wish to thank you for organizing the virtual meeting.  It was definitely very worthwhile.  We shall chat later.

Hugs and lots of love, Mom and Dad xo

Hi Shawn week 3 of waking up taking deep breath and glass of water.  Today I noticed a shift things still crazy but I feel calm and not anxious about anything that sits heavy in my heart. Everything will be fine everything will work out.  Everything that I need help with or want will happen.  Thank you Shawn Love you to the moon and back

Sara

Thank you for everything. It was wonderful to meet and spend time with you on Sunday. Truly an amazing experience for me. I already received the probiotics this afternoon and took the first one after dinner. Really appreciate how quickly we have started to work and so look forward to sharing this powerful healing & reawakening journey with you! You have instantly become my very special friend and mentor.

Rita

“Thank you very much for your time, knowledge and patience yesterday. I felt bad taking more of your time than was scheduled, but now I know why a timer is necessary. I could have listened to you all night long.

I brought some tips home to Deborah and I kept hearing “that’s a great idea” and “I told you so”. LOL. I stopped at the grocery store on the way home and found the Squirrele bread and almond butter (guess what I’m having for dinner tonight). I also put a celery stock in my smoothie this morning, great idea and I barely noticed it. Over the next week or so, I will slowly be converting my pantry and fridge over. Sugar OUT, veggies IN.  Thank-you so much!

Thank you for all your knowledge, energy, time and enthusiasm.  I sure learned a lot from you and have already started putting into action some of your recommendations.  Started.  Lots more to go.  And I’m so grateful for that.

I’ll be in touch with some questions and to let you know my schedule for a follow-up chat.

BTW, the breathing has already made a difference!

With Gratitude to have you as a key player on my healing journey,

Hi Shawn,

“How are you? Just wanted to give you an update on my dad. I have great news. My dad had his ultrasound in July. We just had an appointment with his cardiologist to discuss the results. When my dad was diagnosed with congestive heart failure  almost 2 years ago, his heart was pumping at less than 20% pumping function.  After over a year of adding CoQ10 and Juice Plus to his ritual, I am happy to announce that his results show full improvement. Normal pumping function for a man is 52% I am told. His ultrasound indicates normal pumping function if not better.  Amazing!

p.s. When I told the cardiologist about the CoQ10 over one year ago, he dismissed it. On Thursday, he mentioned that he has been recommending it to his patients on statin drugs.  Let’s just say I never gave in. 😉

Thank you for everything. Take care”.

On the start of my journey for better mental and physical health, I was fortunate

to find the help I need to succeed with your professional guidance and support.

I hit the wall November 2017, with no energy, severely depressed with very black thoughts,

my weight was  272lbs, my blood sugar was not under control, I couldn’t sleep, bowels were a mess,

had a chronic cough, and still had menstrual periods. There was a lot of stress in my life over many years,

which wasn’t letting up, and I just couldn’t cope any more. In January 2018, I started asking for help. After some disasterous first steps, I started on my current path of healthy balanced eating and living, and this is where I am to date, approx 6 months later:

1. Normal blood glucose readings
2. Normal blood pressure
3. Current weight 225
4. NO COUGH
5. NO PERIODS
6. Better sleep
7. Regular bowel movements
8. Happier, easier going, better family relationships
9. More energy, better focus
10. Enjoy activities again

Going forward, I want to continue on this learning journey, to help my anxiety issues and panic attacks,keep my blood glucose regulated so I won’t have to take prescription meds, become more physically fit, so my sagging skin has a better frame to fit on, and lose another 50lbs, but all in good time.

Learning what my body and head need takes time. Here’s to the next 6 months!

Nancy, Thornhill

• When I eat less why don’t I lose weight?
• With all the fad diets out there today what is a healthy diet?
• I’m on a diet to lose weight. Won’t doing exercise just make me hungrier?
• How many calories do I need to burn to lose a pound of weight?

• How can I get my children to eat healthier?

More Details About: Nutritional Consulting with Shawn

There was a time when eating correctly was just common sense. We were told to eat less fat and more vegetables. Today nutrition has become complicated because of terms like Trans fats, fat-free, Paleo, gluten, dairy free, healthy fats, omega-3 fats, phyto chemicals, soluble and insoluble fibre, fasting, intermittent fasting, glycemic index and on and on. Our grocery store shelves are full of “food-like” products that further complicate the situation because of all their brightly packaged health claims.

Advertising has made nutrition sound complicated. This is where Shawn can help you. Shawn will simplify the science-based nutritional information that is in the media today and explain it in an easy to follow nutritional plan designed specifically for you so you can reach your personal goals.

Whether your goal is to shed excess weight,  balance your blood sugar, lower your cholesterol or blood pressure, boost energy or simply stay healthy as you age, working one-on-one with Shawn will give you the tools and support you need to eat healthfully today – and for the long term.

Forms to fill out prior to your First Appointment

Once you have decided the time is right to make permanent changes to your nutrition, health and or fitness you can book your Initial Nutritional Appointment with Shawn. You will be sent via mail or e-mail the following forms: A Health questionnaire, a WISE questionnaire and a Food Journal Sheet. You can download the Health questionnaire and Food Journals, fill them out and bring them with you to your initial appointment with Shawn. The WISE questionnaire can be filled out on line, if possible and e-mailed to Shawn prior to your initial appointment so that Shawn can get a head start on your nutritional assessment prior to your first appointment.

Your initial consultation appointment with Shawn

During this initial 3 hour meeting, Shawn will gather more information from you. She’ll ask about your risk factors for disease, lifestyle habits, medications, and nutrition supplement use. She’ll also walk you through a detailed diet history to learn your eating/meal schedule, your portion sizes and, of course, your food preferences. Based on this information, Shawn will prepare your “Nutritional & Lifestyle Recommendations” that will be discussed at this time also so you can begin making healthy changes right away!!

Follow-up appointments with Shawn

Your “Follow-up appointments” and all consecutive appointments can be one on one appointments -3 hours in length or some also enjoy booking one hour phone consults to stay on tract – 1 hour in length.

There is always so much to learn and so much to share and this is a wonderful way to stay on tract, ask questions and decide what steps are best to take.

Shawn can also discuss with you a customized meal plan that will outline the times, portion sizes, appropriate food combinations and suggestions for healthy breakfasts, lunches, dinners and snacks with foods that you enjoy.
