Home Metabolic Balance About Contact

Hi, I'm Christine

I am a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and Metabolic Balance Coach. It's not a stretch to say that my passion for health began right when I was born. Soon after they completed their Peace Corps service, my parents moved to Southern California to join a small film company specialized in educational health and lifestyle films. I grew up immersed in the crunchy, low-fat health craze of the 1970s and 1980s. I was the kid who brought beansprout and spinach sandwiches to school and trained for family vacations that rotated between bike touring, sailing and backpacking.

Through the years I have seen how confusing nutritional advice can be. Yet, true wellness is based on simple principles: eat whole, nutrient dense foods that you mostly cook at home; share meals with friends and family; exercise regularly; practice breathing and mindfulness techniques that calm your nervous system so that you can rest and digest; and do all of this in a way that feels good and sustainable. I am fortunate that a healthy lifestyle has felt natural since my childhood. However, this can be learned at any age and I want to share my experience with you!

It all begins with awareness

My coaching is also informed by yoga, which fundamentally changed my life as a young adult. Yoga reminds us that conscious breath is our greatest tool. Yoga fosters a daily practice of awareness, a kind of internal compass. Yoga helps us to live through our entire body rather than living only in our head. It allows us to trust the power of our gut intuition and the expansive wisdom of our heart. A central part of my coaching practice is to create a space for awareness so that you know exactly where you are and where you want to go. I would love to share this journey of discovery with you!

Your body is infinitely wise

My coaching is based on one foundational idea: our bodies are infinitely wise. This wisdom is the source of an astounding potential but much of contemporary life blocks this understanding within us. The way back is a true connection to ourselves through thoughtful health habits, mindfulness practices and a clearing of the external clutter. My coaching is designed to help my clients build these foundational health practices and shift their mindset to release old patterns of thinking so that they can create their life with purpose, based on loving and meaningful relationships. In my coaching, I use resources from my experience as a  yoga instructor, the latest research on human health, the abundant literature on mindfulness practices, but, above all, a holistic approach that is precisely tailored to each client individually.

As your coach, I will work with you one on one to develop a highly personalized and holistic plan for foundational health and a nutritional plan based on your bloodwork. We will focus on root-cause healing so that you will feel your best and aspire to create whatever it is you want in your life.
