I bring an empowering and positive approach to coaching women to develop a healthy relationship with food and body. I explore how we eat and who we are as eaters, and delve into the larger questions behind challenges with food and eating. I offer an alternative to “eat less/exercise more,” help you let go of the quest for the “perfect” diet, and support you on your journey to realizing that YOU are your best “expert.” My goal is to support you in finding the inner wisdom to transform eating challenges into powerful opportunities for personal growth, and to discover what and how to eat, and ultimately, LIVE, in a way that is nourishing, relaxed and enjoyable. If you’d like to explore working together, please get in touch!

Prior to becoming a Certified Eating Psychology Coach, I worked as a social worker in a variety of health, nutrition education, and preschool organizations. I also have training and experience as a yoga instructor and labor support doula. I have a B.S. in Psychology from Tufts University, and a Master’s degree in Social Work from Boston University.

Love Yourself, Love Your Body

I am a Certified Holistic Nutritionist and Personal Trainer. I believe our emotions are connected to our anatomy, which affects our physiology, biochemistry, and overall Energetics.

In working with the body as a whole I believe food can be medicine and breathe is life. If we slow down and listen to our body, it has wisdom and answers. I love teaching body awareness and when you come from that space, results are achievable and sustainable.

I have been in healthcare as a laboratory scientist for much of my career. Throughout my life I had a battle with food and being able to accept my body. My first memory of having an issue with food was at four years old. Like many I struggled to have a healthy relationship with food and body acceptance. Becoming a Mind Body Nourishment Coach has enabled me be able to put what I have learned from both my life experience and my training from the Institute for the Psychology of Eating to be able to help clients on their own journey to find peace with food and themselves.

A Healer’s Journey

Josh is a master-Level Yoga Instructor with 17 years of experience.

Many years of soccer, endurance athlete sports, natural injuries, and the need for recovery from sports led him to the practice of yoga.

He spent years “playing” with, and formally researching, and anecdotally experimenting with various diets in his quest for optimal health.

His lifestyle organically led him to also become a Mind Body Health and Nutrition Coach.

Joyce Kwamena-Poh – Natural Wellness Coach and Advocate

I have been a student of natural wellness for over 20 years and continue to learn and grow. Getting certified as a Mind Body Eating Coach has taken me to a whole new level on my journey.

My favorite health quote – “Take care of your body, it’s the only place you have to live” by Jim Rohn speaks very well to the importance of playing an active role in the maintenance of our health. When provided with the right tools coupled with simple daily self-care routines, we can protect our most important asset, our health.

I have discovered a lot of things on my journey; through certifications programs I’ve taken, a lot of reading, watching a lot of holistic docuseries, listening to functional doctors and holistic practitioners share their knowledge. This has equipped me with extensive, cutting edge-knowledge in holistic nutrition, wellness coaching and prevention to help and support others.

As a Natural Wellness Coach and Advocate, my goal is to inspire, empower and support anyone who is interested and ready to practice their own self health care through meaningful action, nutrition and lifestyle modifications to protect their health, stay healthy and slow down the aging process.

In addition to being a Mind-Body Eating Coach, I am a graduate (M.P.A.) from Columbia University, a Redox Cellular Health Technology Educator, Turn Back Time Consultant (Arterial Stiffness Testing), and a certified Advanced Dietary Supplements Advisor. I am currently going through a Certified Detoxification Specialist program.

I have been helping people access their own healing wisdom through embodiment for over 25 years.
Some of the modalities I draw upon are:
Ayurvedic Medicine
Upledger Somato Emotional Release
Breath Work
Herbs and Supplements
Rituals
Dream Analysis
Psychology of Eating
My services are accessible and affordable.

My name is Judy Legare. I reside in Delray Beach, Florida. I have a Bachelors Degree in Psychology/Sociology and am a Certified Mind Body/Eating Psychology Coach and Weight Loss Coach.

I always had a fear of gaining weight, as My Mom was very heavy and as a little girl, I witnessed her being teased by My Dad. I believed that I needed to be thin in order to be Loved. This was very painful and has fueled me to Help Others with Weight.

My intention is to inspire both Men and Women to be the best and Highest Version of Themselves.

Ending The Cycle Of Pain

Punishing exercise and torturous diets that result in self-hatred have been the norm for far too long. I believe there’s another way to wake up to the life you’ve always wanted.
Have you found that despite all your efforts, your life remains pretty “meh”? Has your relationship with food and your body been an emotional irritation, undermining your every effort to grow and to thrive? If so, then I can relate.
I was boxed in by the shame that comes from always fighting food, my body and everything life was throwing at me. Food became my primary coping mechanism when life became stressful and challenging. Despite my best efforts and tear-filled prayers, I was unable to overcome the torment of binge-eating, over-eating and compulsive busyness. My health was deteriorating and my anxiety was at an all time high. And so the cycle continued.
Thankfully, I discovered a path to freedom and broke up with 15 years of disordered eating and emerged into a peaceful and sustainable relationship with food and my body. These shifts have spilled over into all other areas of life and I’m living a story of transformation that I never dreamed possible.
My passion is to help women untangle out of compulsive living and emerge into the fullest expression of who they truly are. Together we will embark on a nourishing journey that will uncover the hidden life that has been waiting for an invitation to show its face.
In addition to studying at the Institute for the Psychology of Eating, I have a degree in communications and have worked with women for over 15 years in various mentoring settings. As a massage therapist, I understand the mind/ body connection and the importance of how the unfinished business of our lives manifests into tension and dis-ease. As a mother of two, I’ve found that caring for ourselves is also a gift we give to our family and friends. Its not easy to live your best life, but it’s possible…
