Philosophy

My love of food and a burning desire to actually enjoy my golden years is what started my journey and what fuels it! I especially love inspiring people to love the food that will love them back. I am always amazed at how resilient the human body is. Our bodies are always seeking balance and health and can usually get there if we are tuned in enough to give it the right stuff. Food is our fuel. Food is HUGE! I believe in slowing it down, keeping it simple, getting back to basics and most of all… savouring the journey!

What is a Registered Holistic Nutrition Consultant (R.H.N.)

When researching various nutrition schools, it was very important to me to find a school that would provide an unbiased approach to health and nutrition. After some years and with a little more perspective, I realized how much my education in agriculture was biased by large multinationals whose funding ultimately influence the curriculum.

One must always wonder who sponsors the educational institutions of professionals who recommend highly processed or transformed foods.

A R.H.N. is a professional trained by the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition. The CSNN’s teaching philosophy is based on the prevention of disease through natural nutrition.

Holistic nutrition is a special combination of modern science and time-tested wisdom based on the philosophy that each person has unique nutritional requirements in considering mind body and spirit.

Holistic nutrition consultants are not allowed to treat, cure, diagnose or prescribe. R.H.N.’s are self-regulated because government regulation exists only for professionals who risk harm by virtue of their work. R.H.N’s working within their scope of practice do not meet the risk of harm threshold to warrant legislative supervision.

More on R.H.N

R.H.N.’s may join a self-regulated professional association. Members must adhere to a well-defined scope of practice and code of ethics. Professional associations ensure that members meet continuing education requirements as well as provide a platform for formal complaints. I am a member of the ATNQ/APITMN and I offer naturopathic receipts for insurance.

Mainstream medicine does not emphasize the importance of poor nutrition as a major cause of many health disorders. Although people are becoming more aware of the importance of good nutrition, sifting through all of the conflicting information can be overwhelming to say the least. Holistic Nutrition Consultants help guide their clients through the maze of information as well as work with clients to identify imbalances within the body and get to the root cause of disease. R.H.N.’s can provide the tools needed to take a preventive and proactive approach to good health.
