"I'm of the opinion that my life belongs to the whole community and as long as I live, it is my privilege to do for it whatever I can. I want to be thoroughly used up when I die, for the harder I work, the more I live. I rejoice in life for it's own sake. Life is no brief candle for me. It is a sort of splendid torch which I got hold of for the moment, and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations."
- George Bernard Shaw
Hi!
I'm Jo delAmor, Holistic Health Counselor, mom and student of life. I am a human on a journey, growing in peace. I am passionate about wellness, balance, joy, life and food!
I look to nature as my greatest teacher. For as much guessing, research, and experimenting we can do as humans, I bellieve we will never exceed the grace and harmony of the natural world. The natural world offers us all things…nourishment, remedies, a loving home, and countless examples of balance and right relation that can be applied to all aspects of living.
I see the imbalance and ill health in our culture and society and am skilled at helping others find ways to emerge from it, heal and rebuild their personal health/balance/well-being. I believe that this is how we heal the culture….one person at a time, one moment at a time. As small as that may sound, I have faith that we will heal the culture this way due to the miracles of healing I have already been privileged to witness and experience.
Since 1997 I have been studying whole health in relation to the body's natural balance, interpersonal relationships, spirituality, parenting and family wellness, environmental sustainability and community development. I have seen food and nutrition as foundational aspects of each of these topics. I have learned extensively through studying food systems and supply, dietary theories, food politics, natural food growing, production, and preparation.
I enjoy working in partnership with my clients as we clear obstacles, learn new habits and discover the joy and freedom of healthy living. I am blessed with clients who are intelligent, passionate and ready to heal. This work flows naturally from my experience and my passion for honoring life and supporting positive change.
I have learned to care for myself very well over these years and am constantly learning new ways to improve my health, connection and the quality of my own life. I do this as a service to the divine source and as a service to you. I am on the path of healing with you and ready to hold your hand as we journey.
I am a Graduate of the Institute for Integrative Nutrition and certified as a Holistic Health Counselor through Columbia University's Teacher's College. I am also a member of the American Association of Drugless Practitioners.
