The Holistic Woman
Plant-based nutrition, movement, and healing practices woven together to nourish you from the inside out.
I believe that true wellness lives at the intersection of what we eat, how we move, and where we place our attention. My practice brings together plant-based nutrition, movement, and ancient healing traditions to support you wherever you are on your journey.
Approach your journey to your ultimate radiance one step at a time.
About Me
Over the course of more than 20+ years, I have woven together extensive training and lived experience in nutrition, movement, energy healing, and mind-body-spirit integration. I am a board-certified plant-based nutrition coach through the Institute for Integrative Nutrition (2008), a Reiki Master (2017), a certified yoga instructor, and a certified Pilates instructor. I am also trained in Transcendental Meditation (TM), and operate The Holistic Woman, a private holistic healing practice.

Testimonials
“Maria’s detox program is awesome and it got me back on track. I realize that in order for me to continue on my successful journey I must maintain a clean diet that contains no sugar and no gluten. More importantly have some down time each day to quiet my mind and relax! I thank God for you; the information you have blessed me, the recipes, and your support have been tremendous.”
— J. Mason“Maria is the consummate professional to teach and mentor about health promotion, fitness and living a mindful life. She taught me about nutrition, lifting weights, how to practice yoga, and maintain my hard earned weight loss. As the mother of 3 children, Maria and I discussed balance in my work/family areas and she was always willing to listen and mentor. I admire Maria and how she lives her life... not to mention her awesome back muscles! We met in 2005 and now live many miles apart, but I count her as my 'forever' friend and I still seek her counsel as I head into my 50s and want to maintain the healthy lifestyle that I now enjoy. To bring Maria into your world, in any capacity, is making a positive and healthy decision for yourself.
— J. BoschMy time with Maria helped me in my journey back to me. I was running from so much loss and trauma. I wasn't able to hear that gut feeling that tells you when something isn't right or doesn't align. I was lost.
I am proud of how far I've come in my accomplishments. Maria gave me tools, confidence and healing to continue to be ALL of who I am. It helped me to not feel lonely and to be brave when change occurs. I am grateful to have Maria as a teacher and mentor.
I lost 14 lbs following the plant based way of eating, and gained more energy and clarity.
