Nancy Woo (she/her)Certified Nutritionist

Our bodies are wise, ancient, and abundant. They hold generations of stories rooted in resilience and interconnection. They are mighty and tender all at once.
I am here to witness your journey of coming home to your body; of healing and remembering your inherent worthiness. Together, we'll interrogate how oppression and trauma get stuck in our body and untangle from emotional, spiritual, and behavioral patterns that keep you from embodying liberation. My path to nutrition counseling included several detours through community gardening, food sovereignty movements, and decolonized conservation. Building relationships with Coast Salish lands and waters while studying my ancestral knowledge systems expanded my understanding of how interconnected personal healing and ecological restoration are. As such, we'll work together to weave the wisdom of the earth into your practices of embodiment. I am also keenly attune to the ways colonialism shapes nutrition as an industry and am here to dismantle harmful constructs that impact body image, eating patterns, and self-worth. I am a queer, fat positive, weight-neutral, and anti-diet practitioner with particular interest in integrating ancestral wisdom and healing modalities into our everyday lives. As a somatic practitioner, I am committed to continuously deepening and expanding my practices and frameworks in body-based healing through both professional development and personal practice. I experience somatics as an anti-colonial way of being that we all have inherent skills and wisdom in. There is no greater gift than to hold space for folks to come alive in their bodies. Thank you for considering me as a trustworthy companion on your path to healing. Let's find the magic in you! |
