My sennin-so shiatsu practitioner gave me a gift certificate to visit Heidi at Nourish and Revive…read moreawhile back. I had a phone screen and two onsite visits with Heidi when she was still at her Northgate location back in November 2017. Ancient Yelp post, I know. She has since then moved to her Lynnwood location. I underwent the screening and paid out of pocket for the lab work up. She was very thorough, personable, and passionate about her profession. Upon first meeting, you knew she really cared about your well-being and listened to your concerns. I ended up with a lot of information to digest, but in the end I did not pursue one of her tailored programs. What I did greatly appreciate though seven months later, there was no pressure and the information provided enough guidance for me to make tangible changes in my diet and lifestyle.

I've been working with Heidi for almost a year. I first saw her when I was struggling to recover…read morefrom a virus that had lingered for months -- it seemed like every time I started to feel better, I'd have a setback and feel tired and miserable again. I started feeling some improvements within a month and by four months was feeling so much better than I've felt in years. To be honest, the foods Heidi told me I needed to avoid.. I already knew I should avoid. But, what really helped me were the things she had me add to my diet, both whole foods and supplements. Many of us have tried dietary changes that center on what you can't have. If you're like me, you focus on what you can't have or can't do, and eventually your will power fades. It helped that Heidi handed me a list of foods I actually like to focus on eating, but really what made it doable is that Heidi is very kind and doesn't expect or want perfection from you. When I have a hectic week or am traveling and can't make ideal meal choices, I am able to rely on my supplement regime to fill in the gaps. These days my health and energy level are a little up and down (depending on how closely... or not... I follow Heidi's recommendations, so there's a NYE resolution somewhere in that). When I was following my plan pretty strictly, my primary care doctor was so thrilled with the improvement in my health that she said she wasn't going to ask questions about what I was doing because she loved the results. :)

Disclaimer: Tara is my older sister…read more After a rough divorce and year or two consisting of way too many IPA's and way too much toxic food, I found myself pretty overweight for the first time in my life, not mention I had become a grumpy jerk who hated the world and wreaked of negative energy. Once I realized just how overweight I had become in a short period of time I reached out to her for some diet ideas and after a few tries, her eating recommendations finally stuck (and they weren't even that strict!). I lost about 35 lbs in 90 days and I'm only 5'6" so that's a pretty significant shift. She helped me find ways to make and prep easy, clean meals that tasted great without revoking my Ribeye Steak card (this was huge for me, OK?). The meals also didn't take tons of time or effort (yes, it takes more time than ordering a pizza, but I digress). I do need to add that I did lots and lots of hiking, but only a little lifting. After losing the weight I felt completely renewed. Not just because of the self confidence boost the lost weight provided, but because I was able to feel fully rested after 6 hours of sleep instead of waking up groggy after 8 or 9. My knees, other joints and muscles now feel like they did 15 years ago. Over the next few months my outlook on life organically started to change and we have been diving into some spiritual transformations lately which are truly a gift. Sister or not, I honestly can't say enough about her guidance. Loving, compassionate, and patient. Good luck to all on your journey. You won't need any luck though. You've got this!

I am extremely pleased with my work with Tara. My quality of life has improved in ways that I did…read morenot believe were possible. I had been dealing with Crohn's-like symptoms and uveitis (another autoimmune disease) for over 14 years and I had seen many specialists over the years. After many tests with negative results, it was determined that my condition was idiopathic. Managing the symptoms with medication was the best they could do and that's what they did. The medications included steroids and the much more unpleasant chemotherapy drug methotrexate, until I could no longer tolerate it. In my first conversation with Tara about my symptoms, she suggested that it could be something in my diet. She mentioned eggs specifically, which were a big part of my diet. I was very skeptical, but I was so tired of feeling sick every day that I went along with her suggestion to stop eating eggs. I had nothing to lose. In less than a week, my G.I. symptoms disappeared. While I was very happy that I was feeling "normal," I was still skeptical that it could be related to my recent change in diet---it seemed too easy. A week went by, the two, then three and that's when I realized that this was here to stay! Both autoimmune disorders were aggravated by my egg intolerance. The Crohn's-like symptoms fully resolved and the uveitis significantly improved. I went from two severe uveitis flare-ups a year to one very mild one per year. To be fair, though, I continued to ingest small amounts of egg through baked goods and other products. My current work involves eliminating eggs 100% from my diet in an effort to fully resolve the uveitis once and for all. I could not be happier with my results. My only regret is not having found Tara sooner!

I've been working with Taya for the last couple of months, and I'm pleased to say that this has…read morebeen such a pleasant experience for me. I didn't know exactly what I would be getting myself into, I had already been doing a lot of inner work on myself and had dramatically changed my diet before talking to Taya but I felt like I still felt like I was missing something... turns out that something was Taya! She has BLOWN MY MIND with all the information she's shared with me. Also, in the past I would have been intimidated to sign up for something like this out of fear of being judged but Taya is such a kind and easy person to work with, she's never made me feel uncomfortable or bad about anything. I could go on and on about how awesome she is but at this point, I think anyone reading this should just find out for themselves how great she is. If you're ready for a fun experience and life changing knowledge, don't wait any longer- just do it!

Having completed the 12-week fitness and wellness introductory course with Taya (people, it's…read morepronounced Tay-uh, not Tie-uh) I'm surprised with my results and I'd do it again in an instant.  In fact, I'll be a return client in the future.  It wasn't what I expected, but don't let that persuade you into not trying.  Initially, I wanted to lose weight... That was it.  My goal with her was 30 pounds in the 12 weeks.  An aggressive goal, but for me was reasonable.   Some quick advice:  Heading into this, I did research, interviewed other coaches, and outlined a clear idea of what I expected.  I communicated that with Taya prior to starting, and she provided her expectations and outlined her course with me so I'd know what to expect from her.   The first few weeks were informative, and goal formative and oriented.  We did some "soul-searching" to find out exactly what my mindset and will power were prepared for. From there, we branched out into some of life's basic fundamentals and foundations for myself, to focus our energy on staying the course, and continuing towards my goal.  Along the way, she posed challenges requiring me to spend time weekly developing good habits and fundamentals for going forward each week, and not just with fitness and nutrition, but with emotional and character development.  (NOTE: you get out of this based on the effort you put into it, just like life. If you're looking for her to fix your issues, at least discuss that with her prior, but my experience was she provides the foundations and support, and I provided the necessary effort. If you're looking for a counselor or parent figure, probably not the program you really need.) I was surprised how quickly the 12 weeks went, and looking back I'm proud of myself and my rapid results. In the end, I'm down 17 pounds overall.  However, doing BMI calculations, I also found I'm down 4.6% body fat, I've gained 18 pounds of lean muscle, I'm using holes on belts I've never used in 3-4 years, my jeans fall off without a belt, I've lost several inches around my mid-section, and I've seen noticeable losses in my face, neck, arms, legs.... you get the idea.  By my calculations, If  I had not gained one pound of muscle, I would be down 35 pounds  over the 12 weeks.  Now, obviously results will vary, and I was motivated and followed her workout and diet recommendations closely, but I'm completely happy with my progress so far, and the habits we've developed I will continue to build on going forward.   If it's confidence you want, she's your lady.  If it's getting healthy, losing weight, a mindset change for fitness or wellness, nutrition facts, introspective help with yourself, or any number of similar issues, your time will be rewarded by working with Taya!  Additionally, she's REAL... what that means is, she's not a slave driver, but on the other hand, she's not gonna coddle you and tell you you're doing fine when you aren't.  Your investment will be rewarded with someone who's invested in you as long as YOU stay invested in YOURSELF.   Side note for the GUYS:  She's beautiful, right?  She smiles at you, she speaks like a lady, and she's polite.  Mind your manners and don't assume ANYTHING!  She's intelligent and doesn't want your "swerve" or your attitude.  She's REAL.  Be the same, and treat the experience with the same effort she does and you'll be rewarded with the experience!   I needed Taya's perspective, ideas, accountability, and effort with my process, and you won't be disappointed.   Best of luck, Ryan C.
