“When I first decided to work with Laura, I barely knew how to express my goals, let alone reach for them. I left our first consultation feeling hopeful that her compassionate, encouraging guidance could help me piece my life back together. We have only worked together for about 6 months now, but I cherish how much I have gained from our meetings. I went from wanting to do everything all at once to pacing myself with weekly bite-sized goals. My life has become progressively more manageable, from learning how to meal prep to honestly discussing how to work through obstacles. Laura is patient and kind. She allows me to lead, but still maintains an open space for reflection and growth. I’m grateful to have such a safe, constructive time to honor any progress as I transform each of my goals into realities, visions into lived experiences.”

“When I first started with Laura about 12 weeks ago, I stood on the scales at 198lbs, and as I am writing this, my weight this morning registered at 179lbs.  So, I would say that the proof of the pudding is in the eating. With Laura, I have learned many lessons, and shedding nearly 20 lbs has turned out to be a pleasant experience.  I have learned a great deal along the way, as I am not just into weight loss but am seeking overall betterment in heath... It is going very well. Laura is a health coach like no other; she gets results, or rather she facilitates the achievement of better health by a kind of alchemy that is all her own.  I have been very pleased with the experience.”

“When I started working with Laura I had a vision for my life and the goals I wanted to accomplish but was having some difficulty with my organizational skills and overall motivation.  Laura helped me clarify my health & wellness vision and my short and long-term goals.  During our initial sessions, I would decide on which goal I wanted to focus on and together come up with strategies and action steps to implement in order to achieve this goal.  Once the goals were addressed we looked at other areas in life that I needed support in.  Collaborating with a health coach has helped me to apply positive lifestyle habits and motivated me to keep moving forward.  Sometimes just having that extra push makes all the difference.  Laura is very understanding, open, patient, and kind-hearted.  I feel at ease to say whatever is on my mind without any judgment.  She is very giving in her guidance, her feedback in between sessions, and in making sure I stay accountable.  As a health coach, she is there to coach me on anything I may be grappling with or striving towards.  She has given me many tools, tactics, and recommendations to help navigate life’s challenges.  I really appreciate Laura’s personalized support and encouragement and look forward to our future meetings.”

“I decided to make some changes in my life to address some issues I was having with pain in my hips and knees, as well as arthritic pain in both of my thumbs. My Doctor told me I had Osteoarthritis and to do Yoga and Pilates 2-3 times a week. During a discussion with a good friend of mine, she suggested I work with Laura to help me organize and implement some of my goals.

 

After working together weekly for about 6 weeks I have made huge progress. Laura's counsel helped me change my diet, my exercise regime, my titrating off an antidepressant, and even a new plan to quit my sporadic cigarette habit. I appreciated the way she helped me set goals – very specific ones – and followed up to see how I was progressing. She is very knowledgeable about the Nourishing Traditions Diet founded by Dr. Weston Price that I follow. CDB oil has been very helpful in alleviating pain in my thumbs allowing me to avoid Cortisone shots.

 

I have had a huge psychological change in how I view myself. Instead of accepting the limitations of my joints I have adapted to them.  I no longer feel like I am on a downward spiral with the aging process but feel like I am actively contributing to having as healthy and fit lifestyle as I possibly can to help minimize the effects of aging.

 

I would like to continue working with Laura with bi-monthly meetings to help me stay on track.”

“My doctor recommended that I contact Laura Lion as a coach and counselor for my upcoming four week elimination diet to help uncover any food sensitives I might have .  As someone who enjoys cooking and has a basic understanding of nutrition, I was skeptical that I needed any help in getting through the four week program.  Little did I know that it would be far more than the knowledge of food and nutrition I would need to get me through the challenges I would face!  Laura was a guide, cheerleader, confidant, recipe guru and source of inspiration as I went through my process.  I was successful in staying committed to the course because of her guidance. Thank you Laura!.”
