What can I say? Abbi Miller is my hero. She has a gift for healing, helping, educating, sharing,…read moreand ultimately inspiring every other human she comes into contact with. Am I overly excited about working with Abbi Miller? YES. Do I recommend that others do the same - EMPHATIC YES again. I have had the pleasure of working with Abbi Miller in the capacity of a yoga student, as well as when I was seeking nutritional advice. I stumbled upon Abbi in the early years of my own yoga journey, and am grateful for this because due to her very passionate, patient, and unique style of instruction, I stuck with it. And I learned SO much from her as a beginning student, that I still carry with me today as someone who practices daily. She has her own style, which, in my opinion puts folks at ease. This style helps students/clients absorb and process information, as well as concepts. And in the case of yoga postures - those come naturally, too (NOTE: laughter and smiles seem to always be involved with all things Abbi). It is difficult to capture a description of what Abbi Miller has to offer in a review. You just need to MEET her. If you want to take up yoga as a newbie - contact Abbi, and check out her calendar. Private instruction is something I personally did after initially taking group classes with her, and I highly suggest it for others. If you are wanting a fresh look at your diet and health, or just some support, she is also a great resource for that as well. I feel that anyone who is seeking any type of positive change in their lives will benefit from using her services. She has the type of empathetic, understanding, and determined mindset, that will carry over into whatever your session might entail (be it yoga or nutritional guidance). I can't say enough good things about Abbi. She made an imprint on me personally, which I can gladly say has helped me with my own health challenges. I am very thankful for her dedication to sharing a love and knowledge of yoga and wellness to the masses.

I never thought I would have someone in my life with so much wisdom and love to spread as Abbi does…read moreso effortlessly. I'm lucky to be able to work with Abbi, and it's truly one of the best experiences I've had with a coach in my life. She's warm, open, supportive and so smart. She makes nutrition interesting and makes me want to treat myself more kindly. It's not only about food and calories, it's about a lifestyle and how we can together make it work to that lifestyle. It's about baby steps and not the quick fixes. She wants to you to live your life effortlessly and not be concerned about fad diets. She pushes the importance of nutrition and how to fuel your body the way it needs to be fueled. I've also had the pleasure of doing private yoga lessons with Abbi. They were the highlight of my day when I had an appointment with her. She makes it fun and not serious. I always left feeling so inspired by her when we would practice together. She teaches all over the city, so try and find a class she teaches, you won't be sorry! Abbi Miller is one of a kind and I totally recommend working with her if you are able to. Take her up on her promos and follow her on all her social accounts, she spreads so much great information that just gets you thinking.

We met through a mutual acquaintance in LA and I'm with her since. She works with me through FaceTime, call and emails. I must say that at first, I was a little bit skeptical about the success of the whole long distance program but eventually, if you follow her guidance and really have the will to shed the extra pounds and move to an healthier lifestyle, it can be done even with a nutritionist that is on the other side of the planet. Adi is great! She's attentive, caring and great at motivating you to succeed.

I am happier, healthier, and I have so much more time on my hands because I'm not obsessing over what shape and size I am. I am so thankful for Heather and what her program has done for me.

BEWARE!!!! I had my free initial visit today. The visit was with a "nutritionist" who was…read moreactually a lady who "sold" the program. She took me to her office where she spent 30 minutes telling me I was fat. And then presented me with the program. To lose weight you must pay $697 dollars for blood work and to talk to the doctor. And then weekly fees after that to see the doctor and the nutritionist PLUS the cost of their boxed meals. Which they call "meal replacements " To lose weight you must buy their food which is not even regulated by the food and drug department. it's 29.99 a box for 7 meals. An average person would easily spend $300.00 a month at least on these boxed meals that you add water to. There is nothing "medical " about this. It's high pressure sales and eating boxed meals. It's not healthy or nutritious. Studies show it won't work for the long term weight management either. I'm going to stay with my actual medical doctor suggestion and eat healthy foods and exercise and continue my weight loss journey the correct way. This place preys upon your emotions and makes a ton of money off boxed food. BUYER BEWARE!!!!!

If you don't think you are in need of one - but are feeling off or in pain - I still suggest you meet Melinda. I felt that she gave the very best attention that anyone could offer. I was in pain, so I know that my tolerance level for anything less than excellent was at an all time low. I was not going to take kindly to anything other than a nurturing, knowledgeable, and thorough person helping me. I got just that. I left the space feeling not only better, with some areas that must have been pinching nerves completely released. But I also left with information on how to proceed going forward. She took the time to offer many helpful suggestions that I have put into play. I really did feel that I got individualized attention to detail, and that Dr. Melinda was going to get to the bottom of things. I felt very comfortable even when meeting her for the first time, and will definitely go back if the need arises. Freeling Chiropractic offers more than just adjustments. You can contact them about any of your wellness needs. I owe Melinda big time for getting me back into mobile shape right before a trip to Portland. If I had not seen her, my guess is that I would have been laid up on our vacation.

Smoothie Spree Chronicles - Part 12: I discovered TrUbalance while driving past Ward Parkway, and…read moremy attention was drawn by the banner advertising "Best Smoothies in KC!" Being a smoothie junkie, this was quite a claim and I had to see what all the fuss was about. I was surprised that this place wasn't listed on Yelp yet, but they seem to have opened fairly recently. They have a menu that lists all the drinks (including vegan and leaner options) along with ingredients, calorie counts and nutrition facts. I spoke with the employees who were VERY friendly and explained the menu to me and said that they only use real natural ingredients. I ordered the dark chocolate peanut butter cup, and while I'm not sure if it was the best smoothie I've had in this city, it was certainly delicious (and nutritious!) I was really torn between whether to give them four or five stars, so I'll need to make a few more visits to see if I can be truly blown away. I really love their focus on nutrition. The smoothies are more reasonably priced than many other places, and the menu is fairly extensive. Definitely worth a visit, especially if you're into the whole clean-eating craze... or if you just want a nice smoothie.

But I found myself in the mirror less and less pleased with how I was taking care of myself. In the last 5 yrs I went into sales and had two kids...

I half heartedly used their products, and after about three months I wanted to join their challenge because half hearted anything is nothing. The challenge has been great, it has provided me the accountability I needed to focus. As an ex athlete I have had MANY supplements and shakes.
