Hi, I’m Cristina, educator (MA, M.Ed), integrative nutrition coach and yoga instructor.
Before starting On & Off the Plate I was in your shoes.
Yes, I know food sensitivities, hormonal issues and anxiety too well.
Choosing to restore balance through food, learning about my cycle, studying yoga and getting to know the power of coaching have been my allies for the last decade. The connection and knowledge I gained led me to professionally specialize in integrative nutrition, hormonal health and perinatal yoga in addition to my background in education and counseling.
Being born and raised in Barcelona (Spain), next to the Mediterranean, food has always been an intuitive way of restoring balance for me. It has accompanied me during the last two decades that I have been living and studying in different European countries, especially Germany, and now in the United States.
Over the years, I’ve come to realize that I was not the only one who felt unsupported and overwhelmed in different life phases in which our hormones are the protagonists. Women-centered and approachable education and support are key. Just like me, you are also tired of answers and resources that are too generic, too medical or too “huhu”. I know we all deserve nourishment that sets us up for success and that’s why I’ve made it my mission to accompany others in this adventure.
