Meet Natasha

I am a Boston-based health + wellness coach and certified yoga teacher. I have always been interested in the effects that food, herbs, and exercise have on the human body. Through my studies of Ayurveda and Ancient Chinese Herbal Medicine, I’ve honed my interest in Ayurvedic habit science, food, and exercise into expertise that can help you live in line with your inherent wellness.

Ever since I can remember I've been on a health journey to heal myself. As a teenager I was slowly gaining weight, dealing with anxiety, depression binge drinking followed by binge eating, and a huge lack of self-confidence. After realizing my pharmaceuticals were causing more harm than good I tossed them out the window and began trying every alternative medicine path under the sun; Chinese herbal medicine, acupuncture, gross herbs (bat poop was legit one of them), diets, cleanses, yada yada. 8 years later I finally landed on something that actually helped: Yoga and Ayurveda. I became a yoga teacher and quickly after became a health coach. I healed myself and now I'm here to show others that through an ancient 5,000+ year old science, they can heal themselves too. Diets don't work, habit change and body wisdom does. I help my clients learn how to listen to their body and follow their intuition. Following the teaching of Ayurveda my clients learn how to live in sync with the earth's natural rhythms, to follow your own body's unique constitution and to understand what food and movement works best for you. Each person holds their own power and I honor that. What I teach is not a diet, but the power of self-healing with food, exercise, self-care, and habit change. It's all about kaizen (the japanese philosophy of continuous incremental improvement).

Since eliminating certain inflammatory foods years ago, I was on a mission to find new foods to enjoy and exciting ways to incorporate them. This kicked off my creative cooking obsession. My kitchen is mostly plant-based, with the occasional incorporation of other proteins to satisfy the unique needs of different bodies and constitutions. I believe in eating fresh, organic, local, and in-season foods for gut-health, energy, and vitality.

By eating holistically, I have healed my depression and taken control of my gut health. It would be my honor to teach you that you can slow down, become flexible in your body and mind, and nourish yourself mentally and physically.

“Outstanding. I am a nurse and already ate very healthy, but I was still tired, felt run down, and I had decision fatigue about what to cook everyday. I started working with Natasha and things turned around. She created meal plans and shopping lists for me, we talked about healthy/Ayurveda principles, and I completely felt better after a few months- more alert, not as tired, and not as bloated. I was not overweight, but I did lose a few of the stubborn extra pounds which had been hard to take off as a woman in her 40's. This is not a fad diet that is unsustainable, this is a change in viewpoint, principles to follow that are for your larger life, tips for how to cook and choices in ingredients that I had not thought about previously... I would highly recommend any of Natasha's services”

“I reached out to Natasha for meal planning to help guide me through the Whole 30. I had tried and failed at the Whole 30 one time before and knew I needed a professional to help with meal planning. Natasha's meals were easy to make and delicious to eat! There were meals that I would have never thought of to make on my own that have quickly turned into favorites! Every weekly meal plan was easy to follow as it came with a weekly grocery list, all recipes, and a meal calendar. I would not have been able to get through the Whole 30 without her and her services! Would 10/10 recommend!'“

“Natasha is the best! I purchased her personal chef service and I was soooo happy with what she prepared for me. I could tell that she put so much thought into what she chose for my menu, and the ingredients that she used were colorful, fresh and exciting. The meals were so delicious and SO filling. Natasha is knowledgeable, creative and encouraging. She's inspired me to make so many changes, some small some big, in the way I care for myself and nourish myself. I'm so glad that I was able to work with Natasha and I highly recommend that everyone give themselves the opportunity as well!”

“I was on bedrest recovering from surgery and was unable to cook AND didn't really know what TO cook to help me heal to the best of my ability. Natasha delivered perfectly portioned, filling and DELICIOUSLY balanced meals. Tasty and healthy, I felt really secure knowing I was only putting in yummy foods that were doing their best to help my body heal, my mind relax, and my nutritional needs being met. I could not recommend her more, and if she ever writes a cookbook I'll be first in line to buy it!!!”

“Natasha is amazing! I was referred to her through a mutual friend who raved about her business, so I knew I had to reach out to her. I follow her on social media daily and LOVE reading her posts because they are so informative. I've learned so much about Ayurveda, and the amount of knowledge she provides her audience for free is amazing. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants to learn more about how to use Ayurveda to nourish their body.”

candida overgrowth cleanse meal plan review sara kelleher

“I found out I had a candida overgrowth in my gut. I needed to change up my diet, but I'm not a creative cooker. As a working lady I have no time to meal prep, shop, cook, and eat. I hired Natasha to help me fight the extra candida with well-balanced, easy meals that would take me less than 30 minutes to cook. I felt so great after my week of eating clean and reducing the candida in my gut. I also learned a lot about which foods work well with my digestion and which do not, and I had a bunch of new and delicious recipes that were easy to make! I would hire her again in a heartbeat. For all the young professionals out there who do not have time to think about meal planning or have the energy to cook, Natasha will make it so easy to eat healthy and fit it in to your busy schedule :)”

“Natasha is a wonderful and caring individual who will support you throughout your journey to better health. Before I was talking to her, I felt stuck. I knew what I needed to do for myself, but I wasn’t sure where to start. After working with her for just one week, I felt my life start to shift. She has helped me develop better lifestyle habits to feel my best. She provides me with lots of recipes that fit my needs and supplementation advice. From the beginning, she put my needs and desires first and helped me set realistic goals. I am so grateful to have Natasha as my health coach! Highly recommended!”

“Natasha really helped me out with my diet and general life habits.  I started eating healthier, losing weight, having more energy, and have become more productive.  I've also learned a lot of cool things about the body and things we can do to improve ourselves.  She was very helpful and I highly recommend her. “

“I did the 10 habits in 10 weeks program with Natasha this spring, and am so happy I chose to work with her on achieving holistic health. I started the program hoping for improvements in nutritional balance and physical health. Not only did that happen, but most importantly, I feel mentally and emotionally calmer and prepared for meal-planning, letting go of mistakes, and allowing myself time and space for self-care and mindfulness. Natasha is a patient, nonjudgmental, open-minded coach, and I highly recommend working with her. “

“…From healthy eating to healthy living habits, emotional intelligence and physical perseverance were some of the stepping stones in Natasha's wellness plan for me.   I learned a lot from her mentorship and counseling.  She caters to all walks of life and is able to adapt, pivot and provide accountability for anyone that wants to take control of their life.   Natasha is extremely knowledgeable, well spoken, and empathetic to her clients.  I made a financial investment in her services and my life, and it paid out in spades. A few of the things I learned in her program include: Emotional and physical health is one interwoven infinity string. A proper nutritional plan is critical to maintaining the dexterity and durability for your life's path. Gaining or losing weight is an attainable goal if you make the time, create the healthy habits, and maintain your discipline…”
