Making Healthy Choices...
...doesn't have to leave you feeling deprived, exhausted or overwhelmed. Living a better way isn't complicated and is well within your reach.
Are you worried that if you keep doing what you’re doing, you might not get the optimal outcome you so very much want? Nobody’s perfect but you feel pretty far from it..and now there’s another life in your hands. So, if you’re here because you are looking for solutions and answers to help you stick to a plan that ensures your outcome is as good as you can make it, you have come to the right place!
I’m Edie Chevalier, Maternal/Child Health Coach and nurse, and it is my goal to support you in making the healthy lifestyle choices you need to realize your goals.
I often hear people say “healthy living” is too difficult, costly and time-consuming. It just isn't true. If you can learn about the best choices for you and your family and the shortcuts that will get you there, you'll be all set. How do I know this?
Because if I did it, so can you!
My Story
They say you can’t teach an old dog new tricks. Well, I beg to differ. It took this old dog a health crisis but I sure did learn new tricks! My symptoms came on so gradually that it didn’t really seem like a “crisis” until the day I couldn't walk up my front steps without holding on. My joints ached (I thought it was the family “arthritis gene” showing up), my asthma was constant, I had headaches and was carrying around an extra 30 pounds. I felt fuzzy-headed and exhausted and found myself getting angry about everything and nothing. I had been telling doctors for years I thought my hormones were “off”, but my lab tests always came back “normal”.
It took finding an enlightened Health Care Practitioner to get my life back! I was lucky enough to find a Nurse Practitioner with a Functional Medicine Practice who really listened, got to the root cause of my issues, explained everything until I understood and truly made me a partner in my own healthcare for the first time in my life. By the time the journey was at its end my symptoms were gone!
What I found out on this journey is that food truly is medicine and that, when given the right ingredients, the human body has amazing power. It can heal itself and nurture and grow life. I have learned that eating a whole food, nutrient-dense diet is both delicious and easier than I ever believed (and requires zero will-power). I have learned the magic of movement, meditation and sleep. I have discovered how to live a better life (albeit one that I’m still tweaking). I want to share my knowledge and passion with you to help you find your own solutions. I want to help you so you can sleep well at night, knowing you have the support you need during your journey.
