About Patty McManamee

“It is the things you do and the thoughts you have everyday that have the greatest impact on your health.”

I love empowering people to take charge of their own health by educating and guiding them about nutrition, stress management, sleep, movement, and mind-body connection. Health and wellness are about feeling whole, balanced, and connected. It’s about being able to engage in life fully with energy and purpose.

It’s about experiencing emotional balance in order to move through time with joy, motivation, and resilience. I believe in the power of the human body to heal the body. The body’s function is to stay in balance. Give the body what it needs, and its ability to remain in balance improves. Ultimately, the body wants to feel loved, safe and secure. That feeling of love, safety and security is different for everyone which is why I believe in personalized medicine.

Everyone’s body is different, and everyone’s health story is unique. I love to connect deeply with people and be part of their health journey. It is a true passion of mine.

Over the past 20 years, I have learned about natural remedies for health using food, herbs, plant medicine, supplements, and mind-body therapies. My purpose and goal is to share this information with all that want to empower themselves and take charge of their own health. I believe nutrition and lifestyle interventions are the cornerstone to wellness.

It’s the things you do and the thoughts you have everyday that have the greatest impact on your health.
