The word Wanishi in Lenape means "thank you" - and we translate it to gratitude because gratitude is at the heart of everything we do. And gratitude is at the very heart of transformation. When you shift from living in stress to living in gratitude, your brain, body, and emotions align. Healing accelerates. Choices expand. Possibility Opens.
That's why every program, coaching session, and workshop we create is infused with gratitude - it's not just a feeling, it is neuroscience and functional nutrition-backed strategies for rewiring health and performance.

What I do is not work, it is my passion. The flame of passion erupted as I witnessed the ravages of what dis-ease can do to the body. Two of the most important people to me in their mid-50's were diagnosed with cancer 6-months apart. One has passed away 2 1/2 years later and the other is not only surviving, he is thriving. I see how much the impact of holistic care has made in his life truly supporting mind, body, spirit and soul. Through the many modalities I have immersed myself in to help the loves of my life and the practices they have embodied has made huge impacts in both of their lives and wellbeing.
Although, my best friend's life came to a close far too young, she has provided me with a gift to know better and to do better. Because of her I began searching for more. I have learned and grown in many areas of holistic healing and so many more I desire to know more about. I have seen first hand the impact and the difference goal directed care with a focus on how we think, feel, and what we do can have the greatest impact on our health outcomes. This truly is a lifestyle reboot not something you do for a few months. It is in the doing that we can support and guide others on their path of discovery that makes the greatest impact and getting the most out of this life. It is my greatest desire to help individuals heal from the many toxins we are exposed to from environmental to the thoughts we think. When one can heal from exposures that have occurred not only in this life, but the exposures to toxins long before one was born, longevity becomes the long game with health span being the windshield of life we look out of...seeing hope and opportunity, with a long life span being a secondary gain. Said differently, not only living older, living to our expiration date healthy, happy, and vibrant with the quality of life that matters most to us.
Many years ago as an ICU nurse working in the post-open heart unit. I would say there are far more things worse than death, and we subject people to them every day because we can. The opportunity is to have a paradigm shift, so people do not have the wake-up call while sitting in the hospital bed thinking or saying, as Katie Couric said "the two worse words in the English language, 'if only'..."
If only, I would have changed this or known that. The alarm bells are going off now younger and younger...functional holistic body and brain coaching provides the resources to put up an anchor point to prevent the fire spread or to extinguish the smoldering event/s before the fire erupts by recognizing what is going on inside the body and brain well before long-term damage takes dis-ease and turns it into disease.

Holistic functional nutrition is a holistic approach to health and wellness that focuses on the whole person, not just their diet. It takes into account all aspects of your life, including your physical and mental health, your environment, and your relationships. Holistic functional nutrition practitioners believe that food is a powerful tool that can be used to heal the body, mind, and spirit.
A holistic functional nutrition counselor is a practitioner who uses food, and lifestyle changes to promote health and well-being. What is unique about Wanishi Wellness is that our founder also utilizes neuroscience tools to support success in achieving your goals and sustaining that success over your lifetime. Holistic functional nutrition practitioners typically have a background in nutrition, through advanced training and certification and are not a registered dietician.
The cost of seeing a holistic functional nutrition practitioner can vary depending on the practitioner's experience, location, and the services offered. Opportunities exist to learn in a group setting, through workshops, classes, and coaching sessions that support an environment where learning, growth, and healing occur through sharing in one another's experiences that supports longterm success. One-on-one coaching sessions are also available.
