If you know what you need to eat but are caught in unhealthy eating habits, food cravings, food allergies, emotional eating, and binges…
If you’re putting off the things you want to do in your life until you have a «better body»…
If the thought of cooking your own food scares, overwhelms, or exhausts you…
Then give me a call. I can help you relax your struggle with unhealthy eating and negative body image. And it doesn’t have to take years or cost thousands to do it.
I’m a natural foods chef and cooking instructor who uses a tool called Emotional Freedom Techniques (known as EFT, or «Tapping,») to clear subconscious blocks to healthy eating and true body love.
EFT involves fingertip tapping on acupuncture points while recollecting stressful experiences. The tapping interrupts the electromagnetic signal of the stress signal and diffuses its power.
The relief tapping provides is often sudden and sometimes quite dramatic.
You might be surprised one day to look at that piece of chocolate cake and suddenly … you just don’t crave it anymore. And it’s easy to walk away from it.
Or one day you look in the mirror and think, «Wow, my body looks great!» And you mean it.
Or you feel empowered to cook something healthy and enjoy eating it.
If you want this – and more – then give me a call for a free consultation.
History
Established in 2014.
I’ve been a healthy foods chef and cooking instructor since 1998. I was the kitchen manager at Spirit Rock Meditation Center in West Marin, California for 5 years and also taught in the Natural Chef Program at Bauman College in Penngrove from 2005 until the campus closed in 2013.
I’m a longtime meditation student and teacher and a peer coach in other contexts.
In the summer of 2013, I decided I wanted to weave all of these threads of my life together into one business. And since I’d been an Emotional Freedom Techniques client for many years, I decided to train and certify as a practitioner and to work with people who want to eat better and feel better in their bodies.
And so, Tapping with Marcella was born on April 8, 2014, shortly before I received my EFT practitioner certification from Tapping the Matrix Academy in Santa Rosa, CA.
Meet the Business Owner
Marcella F.
Business Owner
Unlike most dietitians and nutritionists, I provide both practical and emotional support to help you make peace with your food and your figure.
When I say I’m a «healthy eating coach,» I don’t mean Paleo or vegan or raw. I promote the foods that feel best to your body, not mine or anyone else’s.
Rather than tell you to eat this and don’t eat that, I help you develop the skill to know the truth of your body’s food needs and then, if you ask, I offer suggestions from there.
I’m a big fan of healthy breakfasts to start your food day. Breakfast is important because it sets up your blood sugar stability, which helps you naturally reduce unhealthy eating habits.
I’m also a big fan of homemade fermented (probiotic) foods. There’s lots of new research now saying that fermented foods can re-establish a healthy gut ecology that naturally aligns our food choices for the better.
All that means you don’t have to work so hard to make lasting changes.
Curious? Give me a call.
