Meet Mindmoodpsychonutrition

Hi! I’m Cátia the person behind Mindmoodpsychonutrition

I support people and organisations to lead more fulfilling and happier lives.

Mindmoodpsychonutrition is the result of an ongoing determination to help others in a more holistic way and be part of their profound journey of change, grow and healing.

Eating it is much more than a simple physiological process.

It is also about the taste, textures and smells,

the memories

the thoughts and emotions towards food.

A holistic approach of health and wellbeing is therefore essential.

When we realise that we can no longer separate the body from the mind and the spirit we are awaken to the infinite possibilities of change, growth and healing.

How canI help you?

Lovely words
