P.S. This picture captures how excited I become over a plate of chocolate. Can you tell it’s my fave? 😂😍

This may controversial, but I believe you can be body positive, an advocate for self-love, AND want to improve your health, create definition, find more strength, & feel lighter. ⚡️⠀
⠀
The trick is to find the “why” behind your goal. Is it to please some sort of external force or to find more self-worth? If so - then you may need to come up with a different approach. (But keep reading, I’ll tell you more later in the post.)⠀
⠀
But if your “why” is to feel more connected, more embodied, more confident, more yourself... then you’re right on track. 🌟⠀
⠀
I constantly have to remind myself, and my clients, that self-love is a journey and a practice. AND when you decide that you want to make a change in your body - intention. is. everything. ✔️⠀
⠀
If you’re “why” is due to external forces or a lack of self-worth, then an easy way to move past these limiting beliefs is to START with the goal of self-love, knowing that some of the best ways to cultivate self-love include living a healthy & BALANCED lifestyle, nourishing your body and soul, and most importantly LISTENING to your body. This is 🔑⠀
⠀
After you’re able to get through a period of becoming more in tune with your body’s needs, you will start to relax into a healthier mindset and relationship to your body and food. 💞⠀
⠀
Then, and only then, you can look at creating specific change. This time it will not be by fad diet, by overexercising, or to please anyone other than yourself. ✨⠀
⠀
You will know how to get there - because you know and respect your body more than anyone else. 💕⠀
⠀
If you are ready to create lasting change without deprivation, guilt, or shame - then my program is perfect for you. 👍⠀
⠀
Because I have some client spots available right now, I’m offering a limited number of free intro calls to see if you may be a good fit! (Link in bio ⏳)⠀
⠀
Here’s a sneak peek - The first part of my program is learning how to nourish the body AND soul - through self-love naturally increases. I have discovered and developed specific tools to help my clients cultivate self-love as quickly as possible. 🙌⠀
.

I’d love to hear your thoughts -
Do you think you can love your body and transform it at the same time?

The only thing that is holding you back is fear. ⠀
⠀
This is what I tell my students when they are trying to get their feet up over their head. 😅⠀
⠀
More often than not, the body is more capable than you realize. The body is ready to grow, even if your mind is not yet there. It’s simply a matter of overcoming our limiting beliefs - our fears. ⠀
⠀
“I’m not strong enough” ⠀
“I’m not flexible enough”⠀
“I’m not ____ enough”⠀
⠀
If you trust your body, listen to your body, and replace fear with love - you will be capable of almost anything. ⠀
⠀
There are days to take it one step at a time, and there are also days you should leap. ⠀
⠀
What kind of day is today? When was the last time you took a leap? ⠀
⠀
You are worthy of all that you want. You are “____” enough. You. Are. Enough.

Do you ever want to just stay on the couch all day? ⠀
⠀
I do! TODAY! 🙋‍♀️⠀
⠀
However - since I made commitments I wanted to honor, I wasn’t able to just lounge around all day... 🤷‍♀️⠀
⠀
I did however take a long lunch break to watch the latest episode of @cwjanethevirgin 🤣... It’s all about striking some balance & being kind to yourself. 🙌⠀
⠀
What’s your favorite way to treat yourself when you just feel like a couch potato?⠀

Every so often I like to do a formal introduction, so hello and welcome! First things first: I’m Melanie, a Holistic Nutrition & Wellness Expert and it’s my passion to help women cultivate healthier relationships with their bodies and food. #selflove 💕⠀
⠀
I’m originally from Santa Barbara, CA (though I live in NYC now.) 🌊✈️🗽⠀
⠀
I love yoga class and kale chips, as well as pizza and margaritas. It’s all about balance, amiright? 😂⠀
⠀
And since it’s springtime, let’s chat about it, shall we? As far as flowers, I’m dyyyinng over these magnolia blooms @brooklynbotanic . My perfect April #SelfcareSunday is definitely spent here with my husband and a good book. 🌸⠀
⠀
I always get an itch to spring clean not just our NYC apartment, but also my life. I even made a workbook with my fave ways to do this: ✨ Spring Cleaning The Body & Soul ✨ Get your free copy at link in bio!)⠀
⠀
So there it is. Pleasure to meet you. I’d love to know more about YOU, so let me know where you’re from in the comments below so we can celebrate spring together!⠀

Do you make time to prepare food during the week?⠀
⠀
I know, I know... we are all SO busy and cooking takes SO much time & effort. But hear me out -⠀
⠀
You can make meals in less than 10 minutes that are prepared with fresh ingredients that your body will LOVE & most importantly - they are prepared by YOU! ⠀
⠀
When you cook, you put your own energy into preparing food. You imbue it with your thoughts, intentions, expectations... the idea of cooking as a meditative practice goes back thousands of years. ⠀
⠀
Think about it - when you order at a cafe or deli - who is preparing this food? What mood are they in? Are they preparing it with good intentions or just tying to get through their day? How does that translate into the food, and then into your body? ⠀
⠀
These are small things, but I believe they really do make a difference. ⠀

Do you enjoy cooking? What are your favorite dishes to prepare? I’d love to know! ⠀
