About
Melanie Banayat, CHHC
As a certified health coach I support women in learning how to have great relationships - this includes relationships with other people, with yourself, with food, with work, with fitness, etc.
A health coach educates and coaches you to change the underlying patterns that cause you to act irrationally around food.
How am I different from a licensed dietician or nutritionist? A dietician assesses the overall diet and then creates a plan to get particular kinds of nutrition, calories, fats, and carbs from your food.
Whereas, I dont focus on counting calories and fat grams. Instead I teach you how to eat using intuitive eating and developing your senses into a skill set that honors and trusts the bodys natural abilities and strengths. My approach is a unified mind-body relationship seeing no separation between the two. The programs that I offer help you eat highly nutritious foods, rebuild your intestinal flora and cleanse out toxins from the body.
Who are my ideal clients exactly?
Women who are frazzled and caught up in trying to find a balance between the long hours of their work life and their hectic personal home life.
Most of them struggle with a need to gain or lose weight, low energy, sugar cravings, allergies, fatigue, and possibly other underlying issues.
They want to fit into their favorite jeans, feel sexy naked, have less anxiety, and end their preoccupation with food so they can focus on flourishing their business and making a huge impact on the world around them.
But they want mental clarity and spirituality to maintain that deep connection with the earth and their body to truly feel alive.
What type of people will NOT benefit from this program?
This program is not for people who want to count calories, are content to stay on prescribed meds for the rest of their lives, and look to others to fix them. I dont work well with people who think that healing comes from outside of them selves.
I choose to work with people who are willing to invest in themselves, prioritize their healing and see nutrition as a powerful force that is intrinsically connected to their daily state of mind.
I work with people who are ready to invest in themselves financially and willing to do the work, make the necessary changes, and understand that healing takes time and involves other levels such as emotional, spiritual, mental and physical.
With your dedication and my support, systems and accountability incredible things can happen!

I, myself, am a 47 year old "former" stress junkie and emotional eater with a passion to help others take their plates back and join the nutrition revolution!
