Call me to schedule an appointment: 917-689-6530 melissa@myheartdances.com --- "Don’t get me wrong, I am a dancer, an athlete, and I’m running around New York City all day long, so I need to eat a lot to sustain the physical energy I expend. But many times I found myself starved for something when I felt stressed, nervous, or anxious. I was often eating for the wrong reasons. Melissa worked with my current diet and made personal adjustments and recommended delicious and creative new things to try. But more importantly, she showed me how to listen to my body and tap into my what I really needed in life such as: to spend time with an old friend; finding a source of faith that helped me through different challenges; how to deal with various personal and family relationships; new, fun forms of exercise; and enjoyable, yet healthy guilty pleasures. It’s surprising, but all these little things satisfied my craving for cookies. I now have the tools and the ability to recognize my emotional needs so I can recover smoothly and get right back on track. I feel physically leaner, more energetic then ever before, and have gained the confidence to take on life without the thought of failure holding me back!" Elizabeth, NYC |
