“Desire is the basis for new conception, new growth, new life. We’re born with it. And often talked out of it. When you tap into it, you have access to your inner guidance. Women, Food, and Desire will show you how.” ~ Dr. Christiane Northrup, New York Times Bestselling Author

We're thrilled to announce the final Food As Medicine workshop of 2015: Women, Food & Desire with Alexandra Jamieson. This December in Asheville, NC - take a deeper dive into YOUR relationship with food, with leading health coach, author, and co-creator of Super Size Me.
