    Working with Laura has been an amazing decision and I am so happy she has guided me over the last…read moreyear. I came to Laura not with any specific eating challenge, but I was an irrepressible nail-biter and no matter what I did or how much willpower, rewards, previous counseling, or even negative conditioning I tried, I always found myself falling back into the same patterns and then chastising myself for not being strong enough to break this habit. These responses played out even at times of success and appreciation from others. Laura collaborated with me to identify and address the complicated causes of why and how I interpreted everyday emotional conflict in both my perceived failures and successes, so that I could then take small steps to address how it manifested in my nail-biting. A year later, I am proud of the work we did together to soften these impulses significantly longer than I can remember and the success I feel when I look at my hands today. Laura continues to stay a resource as needed, and I am so glad I invested the time and resources in her program so she could help me dig into my root causes.  Her collaborative approach and guidance improved my life far beyond my nail-biting impulses and I could not recommend her highly enough.

    Inching into my mid-thirties, and having the boilerplate health (and vanity) concerns, I knew what…read moreI needed to do to be healthier (and more comfortable in my skin) but just never stuck to doing those things enough to make a difference. "By this time next year, I'll be fitting into those old skinny jeans again. I'll just start doing x, x, x, x, x, x, x, x, and x." When I met Laura and heard of her services, I though to myself "do I really need to pay someone to do what I already know I need to be doing?" And after I few more months without change I realized the answer was a resounding, "ugh, I guess". What really pushed me to the point of seeking Laura's guidance wasn't stepping on scale as much going to the doctor and having high blood pressure and high cholesterol. Because of my nutritional resourcefulness and scientific inquisitiveness I assumed up until that point that I was healthy, simply by having knowledge about what was healthy. But, the numbers proved me wrong. Working with Laura helped me to filter my overwhelming amount of nutritional and health information into small and manageable lifestyle actions. She helped me to pair down my health actions binging (and then long period of disappointed apathy) into realistic adjustments. I look forward to having my sessions with Laura, not only because she is personable and knowledgable, but she's a perfectly nonjudgmental counselor to gently guide me down the better path when I stray. The key to Laura's success is making the plan tailored to what I enjoy in life and not unrealistically cutting out indulgences. The helps bring pleasure and wellness to a balance. I got my blood panels done again last week, and my anxiety at viewing the results melted away at I saw that my total cholesterol has dropped 55 mg/dL down to 155mg/dL, and all of my number are in the healthy range. I shouldn't have been that surprised, since I've lost 12 lbs and feel much better. Laura knows what she's doing, and even if skinny jeans are no longer trending, I'm just happy feeling better in this one body I've got.

    Despite my active lifestyle, I have often found myself plateau-ing on the way to maximum wellness…read more The Bodyworks by Bonita class is an excellent catalyst for anyone who's ever wanted to eat better/ feel better/ look better. I took Bonita's 4-week detox class at the Vitamin Shoppe last year where we discussed things like nutrition and body chemistry, government's impact on what's available/ accessible to us, toxic materials in everyday items (cleaning products, storage containers, etc.), alternative health products (body massagers, skin brushers, tongue brushers), and much more! A huge take-away for me is the green juices (spinach/kale/arugula, carrots, celery, fruit, fresh herbs, and banana for creaminess) that have replaced the toast, egg or breakfast sandwich that made up my first meal of the day. The classes served as a translator/ introduction to issues related to diet and the physical condition (i.e. The China Study, local foods, natural products). It was initially torturous to ween myself off of meat and dairy for the short-term detox (yes, I cheated and continue to do so). However, it made me reexamine my meal composition - weighing the costs of living healthier vs. more cost-effective meals with minimal nutritional value and possibly contain hazardous materials. What I've learned ties in well with my activity level and outlook on life. The dietary changes, themselves, have resulted in increased and sustainable energy, faster recovery from headaches and injuries, better skin, more diverse and interesting meals at home, and more!

    After doing much research on different detox courses, I decided to sign up for Bonita's four week…read moredetox workshop and I'm so glad I did. I have been a vegetarian for the past 10 years; however, through Bonita's classes I learned that I was not eating foods with the highest nutritional value. Most of my diet consisted of processed foods, meat substitutes and simple carbohydrates. Bonita has helped me understand the power of superfoods, fresh juices and greens in my diet. Through my month long journey I am more aware of what I eat and how it affects my body and as a result have never felt better. Bonita has such a positive attitude and is very knowledgable. If you are thinking about doing a detox but aren't sure how to get started, I highly recommend registering for her workshop. Thank you, Bonita! I look forward to incorporating what I have learned into my everyday life. Amanda
